Measurement Data in the Cloud and IT Security Aspects

The GI.cloud concept acquires and stores data of many decentralized data acquisition systems like Gantner Instrument’s Q.Station. IT Security is an increasingly important aspect to secure the communication and data transfer between the acquisition system and the cloud server.

It does not matter if the server is available via internet (public cloud) or runs in the same network as the acquisition system on site (local or private cloud) – a state-off-the-art security concept with secure authentification, end-to-end encryption and reliable storage are the build-in features of the GI.cloud.

The sampling frequencies, the amount of sensors and size measurement data are rapidly increasing particularly with regard to actual technology like Industry 4.0, Internet of Things (IoT) or big data. The GI.cloud uses intelligent data reduction methods to keep the volume of transferred data low. A highly scalable server infrastructure for storage and analysis helps to keep the costs low and can grow with the business.

Visualization and overview dashboards can be configured for standard web browsers and needs no longer software that have to be installed on clients in the network. That makes the implementation in existing IT environments easily.

Also high speed data from several tens of channels acquired with 10kHz can be displayed in stored in “real time” with the GI.cloud just by using the standard web browser.

Q.series interface with the Moog Aerospace Test Controller

The amount of data generated in an aircraft structural test program continues to grow. The density of load introduction points (actuators) and sensors (strain gauges, thermocouples, LVDTs) on a test article is increasing progressively and model validation requires higher data sample rates to capture more detail. The risks and costs involved in aircraft validation and certification are significant, and the requirement for quick entry-into-service is high. To minimize the impact of retrofitting in-service aircrafts, the ability to generate test results quickly is crucial to the success of a test program.
