Connect and integrate your digital enterprise

Your data and enterprise applications are everywhere – in your OT infrastructure, in your IT data center, on industrial cloud platforms, and on SaaS enterprise clouds. Edge2Web Flow Server enables you to easily access and integrate data from any source that is accessible by Edge2Web's connectivity tier including asset models, timeseries data, databases, flat files, analytic services, and much more.

Flow Server is often used for continuous asset monitoring and notification apps, KPI number crunching, analytic pipelining, and other similar workhorse applications.

Connect and integrate your digital enterprise

Your data and enterprise applications are everywhere – in your OT infrastructure, in your IT data center, on industrial cloud platforms, and on SaaS enterprise clouds. To build applications that give users full context and allow them to take informed actions, you need access to everything. Edge2Web’s enterprise connectivity services give you instant access to all of the rich data available across your organization.

Edge2Web Flow Server Use Cases

Below are examples of applications built and deployed by Edge2Web Flow Server users.

Asset
Condition
Monitoring

Plant personnel need real-time visibility into all critical infrastructure – they need dashboards that provide summary-level KPIs, apps that show the current operating condition of key systems, and mapping services that display fleet locations and details. Edge2Web Flow Server tasks are often scheduled to execute at defined intervals (e.g., every 15 seconds) to monitor temperature, vibration, pressure, and many other variables to anticipate downtime and notify operations support.

Data  Conditioning
& Analytics

Where raw operating data is critical to machine and process monitoring, derived data provides deeper insights about trends, patterns, and anomalies.  Flow Server is used by many customers to aggregate, consolidate, and contextualize data prior to executing KPI computations and deeper analytics (e.g., predictive maintenance). Flow Server tasks often drive analytic services in sequences and/or in parallel to produce required outcomes.

Digital twin inventory
sync-up

Plant asset inventories change constantly – new machines are commissioned, old machines are retired, and functional machines are moved to new locations. Edge2Web Flow Server is often used to keep physical and digital asset inventories in sync. Flow Server tasks poll edge gateway endpoints to acquire asset metadata, then update relevant IoT asset inventories. Flow Server enables industrial companies to scale their digital operations by automating the management of cloud asset inventories.

System
and data integration

A common goal of smart industry applications is to streamline the flow of information between OT, IT, and SaaS-based systems. For example, a manufacturer needs to notify finished goods inventory and order management applications when a key machine requires unscheduled maintenance. Edge2Web Flow Server is used to build back-end applications that automate the flow of information across key systems, datastores, and processes.

Key Features of Edge2Web Flow Server

SECURE PLATFORM CONNECTIVITY

Flow Server leverages Edge2Web’s platform connectivity tier, giving your applications secure access to all of the rich services on your IIoT platform, including assets, timeseries, analytics, events, files, notifications, and much more. And whenever those services provide bi-directional access, your apps can perform both read and write operations on the platform.

TASK CHAINING

Most server-side applications execute repetitively on a defined schedule. It is sometimes necessary to pass state information across sequential executions of a task. Flow Server handles this requirement easily, allowing administrators to specify that the output of a completed task serve as input to the next iteration of that task.

PARALLEL EXECUTION

Although many flow-based applications are comprised of steps executed in sequence, performance gains can often be achieved when steps execute in parallel. For example, acknowledgement of an event and user notification of that event can usually be executed concurrently. Flow Server provides a parallel step type for applications that can benefit from concurrent execution.

CALLABLE INTERFACE

Flow Server’s built-in admin console provides a convenient interface for routine tasks such as scheduling tasks for execution, pausing and resuming tasks, and browsing logs of past executions. In addition, Flow Server provides an interface that allows Edge2Web applications to manage flow executions, enabling batch task management to be easily integrated with established operating practices.
