Creating a Fault-Tolerant System

Refining and Chemicals Control System of the Future

In 2003, the ARC Advisory Group estimated that $65 billion worth of industrial control systems was nearing the end of its expected life. Motivated by this need, ExxonMobil has identified a set of functional characteristics of a next-generation industrial control system that improves manufacturing facility profitability and helps maintain competitiveness well into the 21st century.

Practical Uses of Machine Learning and Ignition

Machine learning is a rapidly growing branch of artificial intelligence with huge potential to advance the way industrial organizations analyze data. In this session, you’ll get a primer on the basics of machine learning, a look at the technology’s potential impact on the industrial space, and some practical examples of how machine learning and Ignition can be used together.

Achieving Business Value with Enterprise Deployments

Two years ago, Inductive Automation introduced the Enterprise Integrator program in response to the growing demand from large, complex global organizations to deploy the Ignition platform across multiple sites for multiple purposes. Inductive defines Enterprise Integrators as “very large integrators (250+ engineers) with a global presence and a reputation for executing large corporate initiatives across multiple sites simultaneously. Such integration firms tend to have long-term relationships with their clients.” Brock Solutions, the first integrator to achieve this status, will share their experiences working with enterprise clients leveraging the Ignition platform to achieve measurable business value – beyond HMI and SCADA.
