AI-Powered Platform Streamlines Industrial Data Operations

The IRIS Foundry data operations platform, powered by the award-winning predictive and generative EurekaAI platform from SymphonyAI, utilizes AI-enabled data contextualization at enterprise scale and is both open and composable.

Manufacturers face the challenge of connecting data silos across their operations, business, and enterprise. The lack of a scalable approach to contextualize industrial data for drawing insights and decisions has hindered the ability to grow revenue, drive productivity, and facilitate knowledge sharing. According to Deloitte’s 2024 manufacturing industry outlook, 86% of manufacturing executives believe smart factory solutions will be the primary drivers of competitiveness in the next five years.

The IRIS Foundry data operations platform offers the essential building blocks of industrial data management and governance required to implement AI-embedded manufacturing systems at enterprise scale. IRIS Foundry features prebuilt connectors to extract data from IT, OT, and enterprise data sources into polyglot dataops storage for versatile handling and integration of multiple data contexts. Data is structured into an asset hierarchy using AI-powered P&ID ingestion or existing asset historian frameworks. This process, combined with advanced contextualization services, automatically organizes data into a unified namespace, creating a dynamic industrial knowledge graph that simplifies access to and navigation of information.

“IRIS Foundry is a powerful industrial data operations platform designed to revolutionize the way industries manage and utilize their data for real-time AI-powered insights, optimized operations, and decision-making processes,” stated Prateek Kathpal, president of SymphonyAI’s industrial division. “With IRIS Foundry, we are making significant strides to simplify our customers’ operational transformation with trusted predictive and generative AI at scale.”

Advancing its collaboration with Microsoft, IRIS Foundry, built on Microsoft Azure, integrates contextualized industrial data into Microsoft Fabric to accelerate the convergence of the IT and OT data landscape at enterprise scale. Additionally, to enhance value-capture from contextualized industrial data, IRIS Foundry’s role-based industrial copilots incorporate Azure OpenAI Service, enabling manufacturers to swiftly identify, diagnose, and address operational challenges with targeted actions. Alongside its productized generative and predictive AI capabilities, underlying large language model, and role-based copilots, IRIS Foundry provides domain models for various manufacturing industries.

“As AI and ML increasingly merge with industrial data operations, the combination of sophisticated predictive AI and unified, trusted datasets is fundamental. Generative AI, with role-based copilots, offers an interactive experience for users to generate instant insights and take targeted actions,” explained Sebastian Trolli, Research Manager and Global Head of Industrial Automation at Frost & Sullivan. “Data operations in IRIS Foundry and SymphonyAI’s deep industrial AI expertise are uniquely positioned to guide industrial users towards intelligent operations with transformative business impact.”

IRIS Foundry offers a low-code, drag-and-drop user experience, seamless integration with programming tools, and the flexibility to deploy in various modes from SaaS to customer-hosted models in a private cloud. With a lightweight architecture encompassing cloud and edge computing, the installation footprint aligns with manufacturers’ operational technology (OT), information technology (IT), and external data ecosystems, featuring numerous prebuilt connectors to streamline the unification of industrial data.
