Advanced energy generation requires secure, real-time, connected intelligence. RTI delivers the mission-critical connectivity framework that enables data sharing, from the smallest energy collection points to large-scale distributed environments. Connext optimizes energy production and data flow through the modernization and protection of legacy devices, shared securely and seamlessly across the enterprise.
Connext exceeds today’s requirements for extreme availability, fault tolerance, scalability, performance and security — all with flexible installation and cutover options. With no servers to fail, data from multiple devices operates in concert on the Connext databus for zero downtime of pertinent data.
Based on the DDSTM open standard, maintained by the Object Management Group®, Connext delivers system flexibility through filtering, ordering/weighting, data conversion, publish and subscribe, routing, web interfaces, security and more. Robust security protects all networks as well as the communications infrastructure.
