"In developing Predix, we knew providing strong mobile capabilities was
important, given the remote locations where users need access to Predix,
such as on wind farms, oil rigs or in power plants. But we soon learned
that offline was critical," said Michael Hart, director of Predix mobile
engineering at GE Digital. "Providing a solution that would work all the
time, regardless of location or network availability, became the key
challenge we had to solve for in building Predix."
GE Digital approached Couchbase in search of a technology that would
enable offline capabilities in remote locatios, giving Predix operators
the ability to manage, use and store massive amounts of data regardless
of network availability. Predix users require applications and devices
to work all the time, with seamless data integration and management, and
the ability to sync data from devices to the cloud when the network is
available. With Couchbase, GE Digital was able to deliver on these
requirements.
The Modern Mobility Innovation Awards recognize exceptionally innovative
and successful enterprise mobility projects, demonstrating how
organizations that embrace mobility and take advantage of cutting-edge
technology can transform their processes and achieve new levels of
productivity.
"We're thrilled to be recognized by TechTarget for our successful
collaboration with GE Digital in creating the platform for the
Industrial Internet," said Couchbase CEO Bob Wiederhold. "Predix is a
testament to the Couchbase team's continued commitment to helping build
innovative applications that enterprises need to compete in the digital
economy."
