“Data has no value unless the business trusts and uses it” There is no shortage of data in any industrial company, but there is a general lack of understanding on how to extract it, bring it together, and use it in an actionable way.There are two discomforting truths within digital transformation across our key industries; energy, utilities, and manufacturing: Digitalization PoCs are commonplace. Real ROI isn’t. Billions are invested in cloud data warehouses and data lakes. Most data ends there, unused by anyone for anything. At the heart of this data-driven value dilemma lies a confluence of challenges, ranging from the technical (How can we best organize our diverse and fluid data universe?) to the operational (How can we create new information products and services?), to the financial (How can we treat data as an asset?), to the human (How can we improve data literacy and ensure digital solution adoption in the field?).With more and more of our industrial operations data readily

INTRODUCTION A digital twin can be one of the most useful, insightful tools to drive industrial innovation. While the digital twin concept is no longer new, the capacity of the term continues to expand based on technological advancement, particularly in the realm of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). Over time, digital twins have morphed to meet the practical needs of users. In oil and gas, for example, the possibilities of condition-based monitoring and predictive maintenance have amplified the need for a digital representation of both the past and present condition of an object or system. Gartner predicts that “by 2023, 33% of owner-operators of homogeneous composite assets will create their own digital twins, up from less than 5% in 2018” while “at least 50% of OEMs’ mass-produced industrial and commercial assets will directly integrate supplier product sensor data into their own composite digital twins, up from less than 10% today.” In the same report, Gartner indicates that
Hi All, I’m Stig Harald Gustavsen. For the past 15 years, I have been spending a third of my time on the Valhall oil platform. I work there as a metering technician/engineer. My daily tasks are production allocation, operating, calibrating, and maintaining the fiscal and analytical measurement systems.I’m incredibly passionate about Open Industrial Data (OID) and the concept of data sharing in general. I feel there is too little sharing of the data and information within heavy asset industrial sectors, mainly due to risk aversion. Humanity as a collective needs solutions on the industrial scale. When we withhold information, we hinder creativity and miss out on opportunities that we could leverage to create a better future together. A great example is how the internet has democratized information sharing in the commercial IT world. The more heavy asset-oriented industrial world has yet to go through this reformation. Still, I hope and wholeheartedly believe the OID is the start of this

Only a fool believes in different outcomes by doing the same as before.Executive summary: The modern data stack - a more nuanced view of data platforms - is quickly gaining ground, focusing on making data truly useful, not just storing it in the cloud Modern data stack based platforms (simply referred to as 'platforms' from hereon) are the only means of moving beyond costly, monolithic, closed business applications that maintain business and data silos, preventing real digital transformation Platforms themselves are equally no longer monolithic products, but equally composed of interoperable platforms services from multiple open platforms Open platforms with composable business applications are the new technology imperative. Old technology stacks, and “lets only focus on the discrete business solution at hand” approaches don’t work for the 2020s enterprise OT, IT, and business must work together to prevent tug of wars - and instead - collaborate to secure competitiveness in the

I tried logging in with these commands: platypus login --cluster greenfield --tenant "schema-test"which didn’t work as I thought the tenant was a CDF tenant and not an Azure AD tenant. Then I tried:platypus login --cluster greenfield --tenant "c08c2afd-4823-482b-9113-ed2746fe6026"Which gave me a “Login successful” webpage, but the CLI said: “failed to authenticate against CDF project: platypus”. Then Soumesh pointed out that platypus is the default project, and I needed to type: platypus login --cluster greenfield --tenant "c08c2afd-4823-482b-9113-ed2746fe6026" schema-testWhich worked I think having default values made it harder to use as the CLI didn’t guide me on missing project name / CDF cluster etc, and maybe a better name than tenant as it can be interpreted as CDF tenant/project.
Herein lies the challenge, while many manufacturers have successfully fostered lighthouse sites, very few have been able to replicate this success across their other production sites.To define a lighthouse site, these are the ones that are first to install the newest technologies, often have teams with unique technological expertise, and are likely the most productive and agile of all your production sites. This lighthouse concept is best recognized by the World Economic Forum, which started the Global Lighthouse Network in 2018 and currently recognizes 90 manufacturing sites worldwide for “applying Fourth Industrial Revolution technologies to increase efficiency and productivity, along with environmental stewardship.” The purpose of these lighthouse sites are to act as the guiding model for other production sites, providing a wave of innovation to address use cases that will increase productivity, improve quality, reduce energy and water consumption, and much more. The problem is that
Design Performance Architecture Backups Access control Roadmap Design Time series databases typically come in two flavors: write-optimized and read-optimized. Cognite Data Fusion Time Series Database (CDF TSDB) strikes a balance between the two, ensuring that tens of millions of data points per second can be ingested and read in response to queries simultaneously, reliably, and with ultra-low latency both for input/indexing and querying.Write-optimized time series databases are useful as historians, constantly ingesting data from industrial equipment. But they are of limited use for large-scale analytics and are a poor choice to power interactive applications, as the stress from unevenly distributed user traffic may interfere with the reliable operation of time series ingestion. Examples include most industrial historians, as well as InfluxDB.Read-optimized time series databases on the other hand are an excellent choice for analytical query loads, but struggle with streaming ingestion.

Many tasks in industry are perfect for robots. They are repetitive, located in hazardous or remote environments, and require a great deal of manual data collection. This is a great pain for thousands of industrial companies across the globe, hence also a good opportunity for Cognite. We are in a unique position where we facilitate digital twins for our customers. Hence, we can add context to the data captured by robots - which in turn will enrich the operational digital twins. In this read from Hart Energy you can read more about Solving the Robot Data Problem with Industrial DataOps by Francois Laborie, Cognite President of North America, Cognite Data Fusion (CDF) gives industrial companies a powerful data foundation for automation. With access to sensor data, asset hierarchies, and spatial information in one place, robotics systems — from drones to wheeled and four-legged robots — can connect to digital twins and collect data automatically through their APIs. CDF makes this integra
In one of the first in-person industry events since COVID-19, international leaders from across asset-heavy industries took to the stage in Oslo, Norway, on Sept. 21, to present how they are working toward net zero or net negative and the investments they’re making in technology, ESG solutions, and workforce transformation. Set to a backdrop of industrial images juxtaposed with glimpses of majestic nature, the industrial technology and digitalization conference provided a blunt reminder of the world that these net-zero pledges are trying to protect. [Editor’s note: All of these sessions, plus dozens of other Ignite Talks, are available on-demand now.] First on stage was Aker CEO and Cognite Chair Øvyind Eriksen, who opened with a rallying cry:“You’ve made the [net-zero] pledge, but there are only 10,000 days to go,” Eriksen said. “It’s time to discuss the hard issues about what it will take. He added that addressing the challenges “head-on” is what Ignite is all about. In its fourth
The digital twin is the foundation for industrial digitalization efforts, delivering real-time insights, accurate forecasting, and intelligent decision-making. In the almost two decades since the term was invented, industry - and the world - have changed dramatically. So what’s next for digital twin technology? Johan Krebber, IT Strategist at Cognite, summarized his perspective on the evolution of the digital twin concept during a panel at Ignite Talks, 2021’s big industrial digitalization conference. Read below an extended expert interview between Johan and Petteri Vainikka, our Vice President of Product Marketing, on the future of digital twins.Hello, Johan! Thank you, for taking part in our panel at Ignite Talks and especially for taking the time to do a deep-dive interview to expand on your contributions to the panel! Let’s start with a lightning round question. All I need is a simple yes or no. You’ll get to elaborate in a second. Should we sunset talking about digital twins and
Did you know that only one in four industrial organizations extract value from their data? The lack of tools and processes to connect, contextualize, and govern the data often stand in the way of industrial digitalization. Industrial DataOps is a powerful new way of deploying data and technology to transform an industrial organization. It makes sense of, manages, and extracts value from complex industrial data. And it is is already becoming a driving force in industrial transformations, helping accelerate digital maturity, enabling data teams to deliver more digital products, and realizing more operational value at scale. In a 2020 survey of global companies, McKinsey found organizations that embedded DataOps could see the volume of new features increase by 50 percent because data automation enables quicker development iterations. At Cognite, we’ve released the first-of-its-kind Industrial DataOps book - a guide packed with insights, industry expertise and practical advice on how you
We’re excited to host our fourth global conference, Ignite Talks on September 21-23. We’d like to invite you to this virtual hybrid event, which will bring together global leaders and innovators from technology, industry, and government who are dedicated to meet the carbon net-zero 2050 deadline and create a more innovative, data-driven, sustainable future. You can view every session live or on your own time. The three-day industrial digitalization conference, co-located in Asia, Europe, the Middle East, and the United States, will focus on the innovative technologies that power industries like oil and gas, power and utilities, and manufacturing and enable renewable energy development. You can expect conversations on Industrial DataOps and forward thinking technologies like robotics, artificial intelligence, and data analytics, as well as deep discussion on how to drive profitable sustainability.“As the energy industry reinvents itself and deploys new technologies, we know that data w
