USE CASES IN TODAY’S SESSION

•  Avoid Unplanned Downtime

•  Asset Tracking

•  Smart Meter Management

•  Fleet Management

AVOIDING UNPLANNED DOWNTIME

6


TRUE DOWNTIME COSTS

•  E-commerce businesses lose $42,000 to $110,000 per hour from data center outages

•  Power plants lose two ways: cost of maintenance between $200,000 to $400,000 and revenue loss between $475,000 (125MW F-class) and $775,000 (250MW F-class) per year

•  Automotive manufacturers can lose over 1 Million dollars per month from True Downtime Costs (TDC)

•  Oil and Gas equipment: reactive maintenance can save over 10 Million Dollars compared to scheduled maintenance in a year

7


WHAT CAN IOT DO TO AVOID/REDUCE TDC

•  Collecting health metrics data from sensors – Event/Response: Responding to events appropriately can be automated

•  Taking preventative measures with actuators – The response to an anomalous event immediately in real-time can prevent the system before a breakdown

•  Dashboards showing current health metrics

•  A real-time decision making system that can process data from multiple streams in real-time to prescribe preventative measures

•  Continuous analysis of data to create new insights

BENEFITS OF REAL-TIME DECISIONS

•  Sustainable performance that scales

•  Non-stop availability – 99.9997% measured uptime

•  Lowering the total cost of ownership by 33% to 66%

•  9 out of 10 issues were detected before the symptoms became apparent

•  Automated decision making removed the need for level-1 and level-2 support engineers

10


ASSET TRACKING

11


WHY TRACK ASSETS

•  Know where they are (GPS, RFID – Active/Passive) – Supply Chain Management

•  Inventory control (Barcodes, RFID) Retailers lose nearly 60 Billion dollars in 2015. Employee theft is the #1 concern.

•  Indoor customer experience enhancement (Wi-Fi, IR and Bluetooth)

•  Asset condition checking (NFC)

BENEFITS OF REAL-TIME ASSET TRACKING

14


SMART METER MANAGEMENT

15


CHALLENGES UTILITIES ARE FACING

•  Lack of real-time insight into consumers’ spending of the utility

•  Leading to ineffective/sub-optimal grid management

•  Need to reduce CO2 footprint

•  Eliminate inaccurate billing

BENEFITS OF SMART METER MANAGEMENT

•  Consumers get real time energy costs

•  Real-time billing

•  Influence the consumers’ energy utilization patterns based on tariffs

•  Supports demand response techniques for the utilities companies

•  Effective grid management

•  Management of a large smart meter installation base – 53 million smart meters

18


FLEET MANAGEMENT

19


CHALLENGES IN FLEET MANAGEMENT

•  Driver safety and productivity

•  Fuel utilization management

•  Avoid unplanned downtime

•  Managing reactive maintenance on in-service fleet vehicles

•  Maintaining visibility of in-transit vehicles

BENEFITS OF REAL-TIME FLEET MANAGEMENT

•  Establishing visibility of the fleet location in real-time

•  Notification of nearest safety zones in case of catastrophes

•  Improved efficiency in fuel utilization

•  Fleet vehicles health metrics enabling just-in-time reactive maintenance

•  Geo-fencing of the fleet vehicles

22


COMMON TRAITS OF REAL-TIME NEEDS

•  Ability to ingest data created at a high velocity

•  Need to process each event data or a group of events representing a meaningful session

•  Apply complex policies and logic to make decisions immediately

•  Notify downstream subsystems to take immediate action

•  Operationalizing big data insights into real-time event processing
