How AUVESY will Simplify Automation in the Future

AUVESY’s Head of Product Management, Jochen Lang, describes our vision to simplify automation even further.

Jochen Lang, Head of Product Management at AUVESY GmbH, shared a vision of how AUVESY will simplify automation in the future during an SPS Connect webinar. The full webinar recording is available here.

At AUVESY, we are constantly asking ourselves one question, “how can we simplify it even further?” We think this question is particularly important in today’s increasingly complex industrial automation environment.

What are some of the challenges facing the automation industry?

Increasing Quantity of Data

With facilities using more connected devices, there is more data to be collected and managed. While big data brings many exciting opportunities, customers may not have the bandwidth or data management systems in place to access it or use it wisely.

Growing IT/OT Complexity

With an increasing number of connected devices and systems, centralized data management is often difficult and only possible with the use of multiple management tools.

Reduced Manpower from COVID-19 Restrictions

Unforeseen events like the COVID-19 pandemic result in the need to do more with less manpower. Due to an increase in remote work, this pandemic has placed a greater importance on cybersecurity, centralized data management, and well-documented version control.

Heightening Demands due to Increasing Investment Costs

As industrial automation facilities invest heavily in new devices and systems, the requirements for quality, quantity, and efficiency typically increase as well.

How does AUVESY plan to simplify automation in the future?

While our flagship product, versiondog, helps to mitigate many of these challenges, we are also looking toward the future to ensure that we can continue to simplify automation for our customers. To view our progress on these and any other future developments, view the roadmap on versiondog.info.

Device Detection and Integration

We are currently developing a solution that will help customers detect and identify devices on their factory floor much quicker and easier. This solution will also allow customers to quickly integrate detected devices into versiondog or other data management systems. We already offer a handful of intelligent device integration methods today.

Efficiency Through Connection

Knowing which devices you have in stock and how they are being used saves money by reducing spare parts overstocks. Conversely, this also reduces downtime that can occur by not having the required spare parts. We plan to connect inventory systems and device information to improve our customer’s quality of decision making around device inventory.

New Solutions and Partnerships

At AUVESY, we hope to provide even more solutions to help you simplify your automation. We are developing new, helpful tools and partnering with other IIOT solutions providers so that you can fully rely on us for your IT/OT data management needs.
