HighByte Announces General Availability of HighByte Intelligence Hub for the Industrial Market

PORTLAND, Maine, Jan. 21, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- HighByte^®, an industrial software company, today announced that HighByte Intelligence Hub Version 1.0 is now available. HighByte Intelligence Hub is the first DataOps solution purpose-built for industrial environments. DataOps is a new approach to data integration and security that aims to improve data quality, reduce time spent preparing data for analysis, and encourage cross-functional collaboration within data-driven organizations.

HighByte Intelligence Hub enables Operations to securely connect, model, and flow valuable industrial data to the users and systems that require this valuable information throughout the extended enterprise. The platform-agnostic software solution runs on-premises at the Edge, securely connects devices and applications via OPC UA and MQTT, is built for scale, and offers a codeless user interface. HighByte has positioned the software solution as the missing data infrastructure link to achieving the vision of Smart Manufacturing and Industry 4.0.

"As the number of applications that need to turn raw data into usable information increases, the customer is faced with having to recreate models in every application or develop their own solutions that integrate with the various APIs. Either choice slows down the initial deployment of Industrial 4.0 initiatives, inhibits the ability to scale, and places a huge maintainability problem on the customer," said HighByte CEO Tony Paine. "With HighByte Intelligence Hub, customers can standardize and maintain their data models in a single location, securely streamline information flows, and accelerate time to value for their Industry 4.0 investments."

The Manufacturing industry is going through a dramatic step-change. The need to become more data-driven has kick-started the Fourth Industrial Revolution. Early adopters in factories around the world recognize the untapped value of industrial data coming from machines and process controllers on the plant floor. More users and systems want access to this data in real-time to convert it into useful information they can act on—like predicting machine failure, preventing downtme, and improving product quality. Unfortunately, raw operations data lacks context, standards, and correlation, impairing its ability to be used by business functions outside of Operations. This has created the need for DataOps solutions to enter the industrial market.

"Data conditioning is critical for the execution of Industry 4.0 at scale," said Matthew Littlefield, LNS Research President and Principle Analyst. "As the number of consumers of industrial data continues to increase, we see data modeling moving into its own abstraction layer in the technology stack. Solutions like HighByte Intelligence Hub are well positioned to capture data in motion and address the data interoperability issues faced by manufacturers."

General availability of HighByte Intelligence Hub was preceded by a global beta program that launched in September 2019. HighByte leveraged the program to collect technical and business feedback from nearly forty (40) manufacturers, distributors, and system integrators representing fifteen (15) countries in preparation for the company's first commercial launch.

HighByte Intelligence Hub is available as a site license with an annual subscription. Visit the website for more information or call +1 844.DATA.OPS (+1 844.328.2677) and select option 1 to receive pricing information and request a free trial.
