ArchestrA Technology


ArchestrA Technology
Wonderware offerings leverage Invensys' groundbreaking ArchestrA® technology. Products built on the ArchestrA architecture dramatically decrease the cost of developing new automation projects and the time needed to implement them by reusing existing applications. Most importantly, the ArchestrA architecture enables the integration of existing investments in automation systems with the latest software technology so that production operations are the most efficient and cost-effective possible. The total cost of ownership for automation projects is reduced as well, because using this architectural approach facilitates the easy extension and expansion of existing systems to stay competitive and increase manufacturing agility.
The ArchestrA industrial automation and information software architecture offers these business benefits through its use of a common modular application model. The most common services required for every application are now provided in a common set of infrastructure services, so users don't have to spend their valuable time engineering these functions when creating applications. Instead, users can focus their engineering efforts on their domain expertise, where they provide the greatest value. The ArchestrA architecture also facilitates collaborative engineering because multiple people can work in parallel, yet their application contributions are easily and automatically integrated.
Because ArchestrA technology enables the fast and easy integration of systems, software, hardware and applications from virtually any vendor, its hallmark is: Every system in your plant, working in concert.™
