EAI Interfaces for Electric Utilities
Electric Utilities typically implement best-of-breed systems to cater to the specialized requirements of their various businesses. Some examples are:
 |
Customer Information System: based on Legacy, Mainframes, or on client-server RDBMS architectures |
|
|
SCADA/EMS System: based on real-time, redundant architectures using VMS, Unix flavors, etc. |
|
|
Outage Management: based on Legacy, Mainframe, client-server architectures |
|
|
AM/FM/GIS Systems: based on Graphical / Geographical data base architectures |
|
|
Analysis /Engineering/ Planning Systems: based on FORTRAN language programmed systems |
The above systems get implemented at different time frames, and all have dependencies on each other for operations. Some interfaces are batch-oriented while some others require real-time interfacing.
CompuSharp has the "methodology" to develop and implement Interfaces for Electric Utilities. CompuSharp recommends appropriate technologies and messaging middle-ware for successful implementation, after taking into account Organizational, Training, and Support issues.
The following multi-step process is involved:
|
|
Business Process Analysis, leading to Development of Data Dictionary |
|
|
Constraint Analysis - Operational, Financial, Time Constraints |
|
|
Design of an Enterprise-wide Application Integration Strategy |
|
|
Development and Implementation of Interfaces |
|
|
Deployment of middle-ware like Vitria, MQ Series, TIBCO, Oracle AQ |
|
|
Design of Front-end using Siebel Energy Suite |
CompuSharp has the right expertise and experience to design and configure Interfaces that are crucial for Electric Utility operations.
