While many manufacturers have successfully fostered lighthouse sites, very few have been able to replicate this success across their other production sites.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 lighthouse facilities on average only account for 10-15% of production volume, and manufacturers are struggling to replicate this success to the significantly outstanding 85-90% of their production.Read in our latest blog why aren’t lighthouses scaling. And how to ensure that your lighthouse success can be carried forward to other production sites. Did this article cause some reflections? We’d love to hear from you and your experiences.

Hi there,I was wondering how one would go about representing a CDF Client credential as a connection string.The main idea is to have a single string representing the credentials needed to connect to CDF. The connection string itself should be unwrapped by whatever client it is passed to (Python SDK, JS SDK, etc), and should of course not be sent as part of the request to the API.For tenants using API-keys, something like this may make sense:cdf://CLIENT_NAME:API_KEY@api.cognitedata.com/PROJECT_NAMEHowever, using tokens instead of api-keys is a bit trickier:cdf://TOKEN_USERNAME:TOKEN_SECRET@api.cognitedata.com/PROJECT_NAME?token_url=TOKEN_URL&token_scopes=TOKEN_SCOPESNaturally, it is possible to but anything in the URL parameters, but generalizing the username, password and path-properties would be great.Some challenges that come to mind:How to differentiate between different authentication methods (i.e. api-keys and tokens Is it possible the keep a consistent scheme regardless of a

Hi Community,We are excited to announce that we have made some changes to our documentation portal! We have migrated to a new content management system. This will allow for improved search and internationalization.This is the first step to revamping the documentation portal to allow for quick access to relevant content as well as a introducing a dedicated developer portal with guides and an overview of all available libraries.As part of this, you might see some small changes to where information is located. If you have any feedback or feature requests, please let us know. BROmar

Hello, Thank you for all the great docs and tutorials you’ve put together on CDF.  I would like to get an expert opinion on the best way to accomplish a specific use case I have.We have a daily time series that we calculate for predicted availability of an asset, for a time range that is usually between 5 and 40 years (usually between 1,826 and 14,610 data points per time series).  We have a view were an engineer will want to see this time series graphed, but also will want to see a single KPI value that represents the average of the time series from today to end of the range.  For all of our assets, this KPI could be ready several times a day as people view this KPI.  When we were storing this data in Azure SQL, to speed it up, we pre-calculated and stored this KPI average and stored a new time series (throwing away some of the time series points and linear interpolating).  That way, reading a single data point representing the average of from today to the end of the range and display

Hello Charts Early Adopters,On December 7th, 2021, we released a new and improved version of the no-code calculation builder (see image below). You can read more in this release post or watch the webinar recording. Ever since this release, all new calculations have been created using this new implementation of the no-code calculation builder.The “new” no-code calculation builder.We will release new features on Monday, February 28th and, as a result, we will no longer be supporting the old version of the no-code calculation builder. Therefore, if you have a calculation in any chart that was created using the “old” calculation builder (see image below), you must recreate it using the new version to avoid losing your work. The “old” no-code calculation builder; calculations using this old calculation builder will no longer be supported from Monday, February 28.If you have not used Charts before December 7th, 2021, or, you have no need for the calculations you created using the old no-code

During the last 2 years, Cognite has taken a very iterative approach to enable flexible data modeling. The key highlight towards this effort can be outlined through 3 key initiatives - Templates, Schema Service and ITG. In this article we will hope to outline the key difference between the 3. Templates Templates is a data modeling capability built on the concepts of GraphQL. Through building a GraphQL data model, you can define the data model that is intended for your solution. Additionally, you can load data into the data model via referencing existing CDF resources or loading in values directly for primitives like String, Boolean, and Float. Lastly, you get the ability to query the data via a GraphQL endpoint, supporting pagination and complex logical filters (with ANDs and ORs).Here is a list of features doable via TemplatesModeling data modelPrimitives (String, Boolean etc.) Relationships between them (1-1, 1-N, N-M).

Hi! If one or more of the source-timeseries are missing data-points they will also be missing in the synthetic timeseries output..We would like an option to default to zero for missing values so that the API will use the available values to calculate a partial result. Example:TS1: [1,2,3]TS2: [3, undefined, 4] Output now if calculating a sum of TS1 + TS2:[4, undefined, 7] What we would like:[4, 2, 7]

In heavy asset industries 3D scans are used for applications such as quality inspection, project progress reporting, project planning, evaluating the state of a site ‘as built’ or even evaluating the vegetation around it. The scans span from simple scans performed with a drone in 15 minutes to complex and detailed scans of a plant, taking several weeks to complete. In this 3 part series about 3D scanning with robots we will take you through how to capture, transform, analyze and visualize 3D scan data in order to improve daily operations. What we’d like to know before going is if someone has any questions or topics that you want to learn more about? All questions are greatly appreciated and can span from how do you set up the robot to capture the data to what robot and data management pipeline would you use for use case X? Point cloud from drone scan with contextualized segmentation

Hi Community! For those who’d prefer our Industrial Data Operations book as normal PDF, here it is. Enjoy! 

Hi! Welcome back to the Transformations group on Cognite Hub. Now that you have tried out the transformations SDK and API ( and, I hope you liked it and didn’t miss sharing your experience or feedback with us). In this post, I will introduce you to Transformations CLI. Before that, a bit about me and why I am writing this article - I’m Emel Varol, Software Engineer in the Data integrations team. I contributed to the design and development of the new Transformations CLI and I can’t wait to introduce it to you. Let’s get started! Please note : The new Tranformations CLI replaces the old Jetfire CLI This article has two parts. The first part focuses on how to use Transformations CLI on your local system or virtual machine for developing transformations. The second part focuses on using CLI in version control systems like GitHub for CI/CDThe following parts aim to summarise the documentation for the CLI and the GitHub Action. Please refer to the full documentation here for more details!Tra

can you enable scrolling just for the section of the page where one creates the logic? (see attached picture) it would be nice if I could specify the degree of an exp. for instance y = ax^b+c would be a second order exp, For my specific usecase a = timeseries, b = constant and c = constant.

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 here an extended expert interview between Johan and Petteri Vainikka, our Vice President of Product Marketing, on the future of digital twins:  Did this interview cause some reflections? We’d love to hear from you and your experiences. 

We would like to change a name of our dataset in Fusion (specifically data set id=7661001648160088 on statnett, test), but get the error message [  {    "status": 400,    "message": "Either set must be populated or setNull must be true."  }]` The dataset has related timeseries and asssets. What does it mean that the dataset must be populated? And what are we missing?
