How engineering enterprises can improve Productivity,
Collaboration & Innovation.
1
What is Simulation Data management.
Challenges in SDM.
What is Engineering SDM.
What is the scope of improvement for
enterprises.
Technologies used for high performance
computing and storage.
Some basic real life examples.
Benefits of SDM.
Outline
2
Simulation - imitation of the operation of a real-world process or
system over time.
Data Management- Administrative process by which the
required data is acquired, validated, stored, protected, and
processed.
Simulation + Data Management = SDM
Simulation Data Management provides a mechanism to
streamline the execution of our simulation processes while
offering a suitable way to manage data.
Simulation Data Management?
3
The Volume, Velocity and Variety of SD.
Managing distributed data securely and
efficiently.
Maintaining Data Integrity.
Collaboration and Communication.
Improving Knowledge Management.
Engineer’s Productivity.
Challenges?
4
Engineering SDM
5
Data from PDM/ERP/PLM, such as CAD.
Data within simulation such as boundary
conditions, materials, processes etc.
Details on simulation type, simulation task
Simulation Input
6
Data in large files
Unstructured solution results
Output from simulation processes, such
as substructures, images, plots, animation
files, reports.
Simulation Output
7
Conceptual Design
Detailed Design
Validation
To address these complexities engineering
Enterprises typically deploy large number of
Software tools.
Unique about ESDM?
8
Generally, enterprises are divided into 3
maturity levels regardless of their size.
Higher maturity level?
◦ Better dealing with unrelenting data deluge.
◦ Reduced Complexity.
Lower maturity level?
◦ Opportunity to improve engineering
productivity and innovation.
Classifications

Isolated Islands: Single Tenancy
◦
◦
◦
◦
◦
SD data stored in Stand-alone systems.
Data retrieval, management, consolidation task
Cumbersome, manual and time consuming.
Unstructured nature of data.
Greater data loss and greater data security
risk.
◦ Lower access to data.
A bit in detail…
11
An Archipelago: Replicated Tenancy
◦
◦
◦
◦
Data within many interconnected islands.
More coordination.
Improved data management/storage tasks.
Improved engineering productivity and
innovation.
◦ More agile and flexible.

◦
◦
◦
Access to data from anywhere.
Visualization and automated reporting.
Rapid access = improved decision making.
Flexibility and easy to use.
Improved productivity.
Data management and security.
Reduced total cost to ownership (TCO).

SDM Architecture - Solution
14
Real Example.
15
ANSYS EKM – Engg Knowledge Mgnmt.
GPFS – General parallel file system.
IBM storwize V7000 Unified.
IBM Sonas – Scaled out Network attached
Storage.
IBM DCS3700
16
SDM can be easily integrated with
PLM/PDM systems.
Volume, velocity and variety affordably
handled with HPC systems.
Automated SDM – better business
decisions.
