Gantner Instruments, a global leader in distributed data acquisition, continues to work with researchers from the University of Cyprus to find better ways to optimally and intelligently manage electric power consumption and generation, especially in local grids with a high proportion of renewable energies.
Projects like these require the storage of many parameters for decades; Early on, Gantner recognized that cloud storage and computing were the future of intelligent grid monitoring and screened the market for concepts that simultaneously support data stream processing and hot data. Gantner’s cloud backend now has multiple databases for gigawatts of solar power with 200,000 parameters at one-minute resolution and energy assets with more than 8,000 parameters at one-hertz resolution. We can combine that data and make it available quickly, independently of how long the history is.
Join our webinar to learn how Gantner technology relies on Apache Kafka for data streaming and the robust architecture of CrateDB, a world-leading multi-model database. Learn how Gantner’s cloud backend makes data analysis at scale very easy, analyzes the amount of data generated by modern energy projects in real-time, and improves power generation and consumption processes through machine learning.

In November 2016 the Airbus A350-1000 flew for the very first time. The A350-1000 is part of the A350 XWB family and is Airbus’ largest and most powerful twin-engined airliner ever. Airbus began the assembly of the A350-1000 in September, 2015, less than a year after the first delivery of the A350-900. For maximum flexibility, the existing A350 XWB Final Assembly Line (FAL) can be used for both A350-900 and A350-1000 models.
