Voilà pour le trailer.
Même si ce n’est encore qu’une annonce, il convient d’y prêter attention car derrière se trouve une collaboration d’Eolus One, une entreprise possédant pas mal d’expérience en hybridation Web/SL/Réalité. Par exemple comme prototype de domotique : nous avons pu voir une maquette de maison dans un salon d’exposition qui était pilotée depuis sa maquette dans Second Life.
3D Virtual Operations Center
The Eolus 3D Virtual Operations Centers represents the next level of innovation and green technology offered by the Eolus solution. The 3D environment is customized according to unique requirements, and can be delivered as classic command centers, control rooms, datacenters, or hybrids or custom solutions. The versatile virtual world environment ensures a platform for innovation for scalability, performance, and growth as the business value it brings is expanded to other areas.
The Eolus 3D Virtual Operations Center, a class of applications that fuse together data from enterprise business systems, renders the many dimensions of the facilities and operations management into an immersive 3D virtual world. The integrated and consolidated view of the facilities, operations, and datacenter provides enhanced situational awareness of multiple facets of the enterprise, leading to improved operational efficiencies and new insights into the business. This includes rendering information about building automation and energy management systems with data from the Eolus Virtual World Communications Interface as well as datacenter IT systems.
Eolus Virtual Operations Center
The Eolus 3D Virtual Operations Centers are customizable and versatile, both in the data it receives and the layout and function of the datacenter. This customization is useful when managing live systems, and can also be used to perform simulations for planning such as space, thermal, power, or other planning needs. The Eolus 3D Virtual Operations Centers also extends the business value of previous investments, by leveraging and extending existing systems management and monitoring infrastructure. This includes facilities automation and information systems, datacenters, command center information systems, and many other systems that provide industry standard programming interfaces.
Many enterprise management tools for managing business resources are focused on a single instance or business entity. In today’s distributed world, the fragmentation of a manager’s understanding of the enterprise operations is a significant challenge. Even after consolidation, virtualization, and interface and integration standards, operators are often required to switch between several different instances of monitoring and management applications for the various systems, and possibly another set of challenges for remote sites.
Eolus Virtual Operations Center – Virtual building
Eolus 3D Virtual Operations Centers organize and present information from these systems in familiar and easy to understand ways. For example, the Eolus 3D Virtual Operations Center application can show the consolidated view of 2 or more datacenters and their assets, in a single composite 3D view. Additionally, the 3D environment can render information from the facilities such as HVAC and power. Combining this capability with the Green Technology in the IT equipment, this powerful new tool shows an at a glance state of the carbon and physical footprint. This allows managers to see and understand the collective set of enterprise resources and their individual states, for multiple distributed operations locations and types.
Since the Eolus 3D Virtual Operations Centers are multi-user virtual world applications, complete with in-world 3D messaging, multiple users can have a shared 3D experience about aspects of the business, and carry on active discussions in-world. This shared experience allows technical, business, and even partner personnel, to collaborate on elements of the enterprise in real-time. These expert collaborators can be located across the world, yet still meet ‘locally’ in the virtual world to collaborate, decreasing time to resolution, increasing planning effectiveness, and reduced travel costs. The key benefit of the virtual world collaborative capability and shared immersive experience is providing enhanced overall communications methods and cycle time for any business scenario.
Eolus 3D Virtual Operations Center – Inside virtual building
The Eolus 3D Virtual Operations Centers leverages a state of the art 3D virtual world infrastructure to create the virtual
world environment. The server component manages the virtual world, and users log in with clients and are brought
into the virtual world. Once logged onto the Eolus 3D Virtual Operations Centers server, they can interact with other
users, gadgets, and the machinery in the command center. The Eolus 3D Virtual Operations Centers is driven by the
data from a virtual world integration middleware component that is part of the overall solution.
- Control of Facilities and Assets in an intuitive 3D environment
- Enhanced situational awareness of multiple facets of the enterprise
- Improved operational efficiencies and new insights into the business
- Extends the business value of previous investments
