Software Framework for Energy Systems

As the energy industry continues to evolve, changes are happening at a faster rate: costs associated with Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) are dropping, retirement of centralized coal generation is gaining speed, and a desire for smart technologies is creating the need to transform legacy systems.

The RTI Connext® databus provides industrial-strength security and data sharing, vastly improving ways to generate and distribute power today and into the future.

Smart Machine Connectivity and Energy Systems

RTI is the largest software framework company for autonomous systems. RTI Connext, based on the DDS standard, is the world's leading architecture for developing intelligent distributed systems. Connext offers a purely data-centric architecture versus a traditional device-centric solution. Data centricity has an immediate impact on reducing system complexity, enhancing security and enabling automation; device files no longer need to reside in a central database for access across the enterprise.

From massive hydropower dams to the smallest microgrid distribution, Connext delivers a secure data-connectivity platform for all utility automation applications - from the legacy to the future of clean energy generation.
