The name of the base system (platform): | DPC Rostelecom Moscow |
Developers: | National Center of Informatization (NCI) |
Date of the premiere of the system: | May, 2017 |
Technology: | PDM - Product data management, PLM - Product lifecycle management, SaaS - the Software as service, a CAD |
In May, 2017 at the TsIPR conference in Innopolis "National Center of Informatization" (NCI) announced "Virtual Design Office" (VDO) service start. She turns on a complex of cloud services for design and creation of models of industrial products in different areas.
Service is available according to the SaaS model and in the form of the private cloud unrolled on the party of the customer. In the first case customers can get from an external cloud access to engineering software - a CAD, PDM, PLM and tools for joint work over documents. The software set is provided by products of the Russian and foreign developers: Autodesk Autocad and PLM 360, Siemens NX, "Compass-3D" and "Pilot: PLM", Teamcenter.
Also the protected cloud infrastructure is provided for a hosting of engineering software on the IaaS model.
Among services - the protected data network for the customer and collaborators and backup and archiving of data in the protected cloud.
The NCI is going to provide cloud services based on DPC of Rostelecom. In the same place, on TsIPR, the companies signed the relevant agreement on strategic partnership. Rostelecom will participate in pilot testing of the solution VKB, providing services for communication and placement of the equipment of NCI in DPC, including with the imposed cryptonetwork.
Among key advantages of cloud services in NCI call lack of need for the customer to invest in creation of own infrastructure, an opportunity to use and pay for service only as necessary, reduction of terms of a project startup.
If the customer is not ready to give data on I will shift, the company is ready to unroll a private cloud at the enterprise. In this case software is unrolled on a centralized basis, and the staff of the head company and its affiliated enterprises can work with it far off on the Internet.
The CEO of NCI Konstantin Solodukhin explained TAdviser that at the same time it is possible as lease of components, necessary for a private cloud, for the necessary period, and creation of a cloud which will belong completely to the client.
Solodukhin also told TAdviser that the NCI expects a wide range of customers, without being limited to the enterprises in a circuit of Rostec. The customers in NCI, mainly, see state corporations and also large and medium-sized industrial enterprises. Among prospective large customers in the company call Roskosmos, OAK, OCK.
The first client of new service became "Salyut gas turbine engineering research and production center which is included into UEC. The NCI will provide to Salute the hardware and software system expected 12 jobs including the software package for mathematical modeling and design of difficult engineering solutions.
It should be noted that engineering software from a cloud according to the SaaS model earlier, in 2011-2012, tried to sell Ascon. The project existed about a year and was closed due to the lack of demand. The CEO of Ascon Maxim Bogdanov among basic reasons of it then called unavailability of the main potential customers - large state corporations - to give the data to a public cloud[1].
In mechanical engineering and civil engineering Bogdanov pointed to other possible problem: in terms of the legislation, drawings of objects of civil infrastructure with a certain scale are forbidden to be placed on any other carriers, except as located at the enterprise.
The NCI considers that their cloud project has much more chances of success.
Everything changes around, including approaches to use of practices in 3D - Wednesday, including the civil and military sector. The legislation and rules of the game just with the purpose to provide wider circulation of it in the industry changes. Rules of the game five years ago and now in terms of the regulatory base, use of circuits of the restricted information differ, they evolve, - the CEO of NCI in a conversation with TAdviser noted. |
Besides, unlike Ascon, service is not tied to software of any one vendor, the customer has an opportunity to select, Solodukhin added. Solutions Ascon is suitable not for all cases, for the solution of "heavy" engineering tasks import solutions are necessary. The NCI invites to join service of virtual CB the most large number of developers of engineering software, Konstantin Solodukhin noted.
