Smart Meter und Smart Grid – intelligente Zähler und Netze brauchen Informix

Die digitale Revolution in der Erfassung von Abnahme- und Verbrauchswerten hat längst begonnen. Unsere Zähler werden digital, vernetzt und intelligent - Smart Meter - ist der neue Begriff. Die Installation dieser Geräte in der Fläche und die typischen kurzen Messzyklen im Bereich von Stunden oder Minuten, werden zu einer exponentiell ansteigenden Datenflut von Messwerten führen. Hier sind besondere Datenbankeigenschaften gefragt, die über einen relationalen Ansatz in der Verarbeitung hinausgehen.

Informix Kundenreferenz Westfleisch

Westfleisch, a meat products cooperative in Germany, uses advanced tracking and analytics to follow each product it makes, from farm to slaughterhouse to grocery shelves, increasing accountability and creating peace of mind for consumers.

Food contamination is a serious matter. Tainted food that goes unchecked can be fatal for consumers and for companies. As governments tighten regulations on food production and processing, companies need to account for each bushel of vegetables or piece of meat that makes it to market. Westfleisch needed to track animal information throughout the production process. It sought a serious data warehouse with lightning-fast processing capability and analytics power that helps it know exactly where products are at any given time.
