The software Cybus Connectware creates a comprehensive data infrastructure and is the common basis for all digitization processes, especially for discrete manufacturing. As a technology-neutral layer, the software creates the seamless (real-time) flow of information between production and IT. In this way, factories continuously realize new digital use cases and growth investments without renewed initial costs, lock-ins or silos.

With the neutral communication layer, Cybus Connectware brings a uniform standard to industrial communication: shop floor data is standardized and pre-processed for the top floor. The on-premises software is cloud-native and specializes in complex system landscapes: Cybus Connectware implements automated rollouts in just a few minutes using Infrastructure-as-Code. Customers appreciate the most modern IIoT and DevOps technologies such as Docker Container, MQTT, Kubernetes or Ansible for process and workflow automation or versioning.

Discrete production becomes Smart Factory

That's why Cybus Connectware digitizes your production:

• industrial connectivity
• IT friendly
• cybersecurity
• flexibility and modularity
• any target system
• every use case

Industrial connectivity

Collect, standardize, process and distribute data.

Cybus Connectware not only collects data, but standardizes it into a uniform format, pre-processes it according to your requirements and distributes it to your systems, your applications and your cloud. This allows you to immediately visualize your machine data in the dashboard and carry out advanced analyzes including machine learning.

IT friendly

On-premises and cloud native

Cybus Connectware is operated locally and securely in your factory network, during operation and without production downtime. The on-premises architecture enables the collection of almost real-time data, the lowest latency times and robustness against extremely high data loads. The infrastructure-as-code technology specializes in fast and complex rollouts, DevOps process automation and is both Kubernetes and Ansible-ready.

Cybersecurity

Secure gateway between shop floor and IT

The technology-neutral layer decouples data collection from data usage. External inquiries no longer access your PLC or your shop floor directly, but are answered exclusively by Cybus Connectware. Customizable access rights and role management and thus the integrated management of all access rights guarantees you full control over your data: You decide who can use which data in which application or which system.

Flexibility and Modularity

Cybus Connectware is based on Infrastructure-as-Code, Docker containers, microservices and provides the use of Connectware agents. Microservices and Docker technology give the user maximum flexibility. Simple integration of new applications or systems, as well as quick changes to the system landscape are possible without renewed initial effort. The agent infrastructure supports high-availability data transfer, clustering and load balancing during operation.

Any target system

Since Cybus Connectware preprocesses and standardizes the production data, it can be made available directly and in a readable format for each target system. This includes cloud integration, connection to ME and ERP systems, but also any third-party applications, databases and proprietary applications.

Realize IIoT use cases

Roll out pilot projects in a scalable manner

Manufacturing companies use the Manufacturing Data Platform Connectware to implement their diverse Smart Factory Use Cases - universally for every machine, system and application. Thanks to standardized data flow, IIoT use cases such as traceability, condition monitoring or predictive maintenance can be easily tested, implemented and scaled.
