Use open-source digital twins to track live systems

Recent technology innovations have made real-time monitoring of live systems easier and more powerful. Digital twins are one of the latest game-changing technologies.

The Digital Twin Consortium defines digital twins as virtual representations of real-world entities and processes, synchronised at a specified frequency and fidelity. They use real-time and historical data to represent the past and present and simulate predicted futures.

Michael Grieves first introduced the...

The future of digital twin technology

Dr. William Bain, CEO and founder of ScaleOut Software, explains what the future of digital twin technology requires for broad market adoption.

Traditional stream-processing and complex event-processing systems do an excellent job of extracting patterns from incoming telemetry, but they make it challenging and inefficient to track dynamic information about individual data sources. As a result, it can be difficult to fully analyse what incoming telemetry is saying about the state...

Building a new execution platform for Redis clients

Over the last decade, Redis has become a popular, widely used in-memory cache. Unlike most distributed caches, it offers a compelling set of built-in data structures that enhance its capabilities beyond just storing serialized objects.

Created in 2009 as a single-server store to assist in the design of a web server, Redis gives applications numerous useful options for organizing and retrieving stored data, including sets, lists, hashes, and sorted sets. A few years...

Extending Microsoft’s Azure Digital Twins for real-time analytics

As countless applications need to track live systems, developers face the challenge of implementing real-time analytics that can react to incoming telemetry and quickly identify problems or opportunities. Examples include telematics software that tracks vehicles in a fleet, security software monitoring physical points of entry or network endpoints in a cyber infrastructure, health-tracking systems that analyze telemetry from wearable devices, and many others. These applications are all...
