Enhanced events, alarms, and work order data integration accelerates Industrial AI and decision-making across the enterprise
CHICAGO – March 1, 2022 – Uptake, a leader in industrial intelligence software-as-a-service (SaaS), announced today that Uptake Fusion will support Microsoft Azure Data Explorer. Uptake Fusion, which automates the extraction of industrial data from historians, IoT sensors, and operational technology (OT) systems for storage and curation in Microsoft Azure, accelerates the knowledge transfer from the minds of site engineers to the enterprise where corporate engineers, data scientists, and leaders can rapidly make decisions. Uptake Fusion greatly reduces data wrangling and data science feature engineering by harnessing the events, alarms, work order, and asset management data necessary to unlock target use cases in industrial intelligence.
Azure Data Explorer expands the range of data available to strengthen sustainability initiatives, optimize costs, manage risks, and increase revenue, … With the addition of Azure Data Explorer to Uptake Fusion, asset-intensive industries improve their time to value for data lakes, data estates, digital twins, asset monitoring, and automated reporting.
