On the 7th of December 2022, (CS)²AI hosted a symposium where more questions got asked than could get answered within the allotted time. Tilo Kaschubek was one of the speakers at the event. He joins Derek today on the podcast to respond to some of the unanswered questions.

Tilo is currently the Director of Cloud Ecosystem and Regional Alliances in EMEA for AVEVA. He was previously with OSIsoft before the merger. (AVEVA is now a subsidiary of a large recognized equipment manufacturer.)

In this episode, Tilo discusses his role in the recent AVEVA transaction, describes the (CS)²AI symposium in detail, and dives into some of the questions he did not get to answer at the event.

Show highlights:

Tilo discusses the changes that recently occurred with AVEVA.
Tilo summarises his presentation at the (CS)²AI symposium.
Question: How do you see IIoT (Industrial Internet of Things) playing a role via cloud models for predictive analytics to enhance decision-making for owner-operators?
Question: On a personal level, big data analytics has raised huge privacy and legal issues. How can these issues not be exacerbated in a commercial market of trading companies’ data into sellable products?
Tilo discusses the best approach to data vulnerabilities.
Question: Help me visualize a 100% on-prem PI deployment with all of its virtual machines versus a 100% on-cloud PI deployment. In terms of hybrid, what does that mean, in the sense that I only have on-prem systems talking to the PI on-premises virtual machines, and what exactly is running in the cloud? Alternatively, is the cloud-based solution offered as SaaS, or would the asset owner deploy their favorite cloud?
Question: Regarding the AVEVA data, is that similar to the AWS Marketplace? For instance, if an organization built a digital twin of a transformer system from Utility Hacks, is the data hub created going to make it easy for Utility Hacks to publish the model so others can use or vie? If not, is there an AVEVA marketplace where organizations can build or share models?
Question: As an oil and gas control system engineer and user who has applied software for many years, I’d like to know if you have already adopted this new solution and used it for any oil and gas company.
Tilo explains the PI system philosophy.
What has AVEVA done to overcome the existing legal constraints and make it easier to share operational data?
Question: What do ISACs (Information Sharing and Analysis Centers) do?
What are the benefits of the subscription model?
What is available for auditing, testing, and verifying technologies like unidirectional gateways and data diodes?
