NEW BUSINESS MODELS

SHORT DISTANCES: FROM RESEARCH DIRECTLY INTO THE COMPANIES.

Digitalisation is a social, economic and technical trend impacting on and including all business sectors. The importance and added value of inter-net-based services on the basis of intelligent networked data is cons-tantly on the increase. INDUSTRIAL DATA SPACE makes it simple for companies to use data as a basis for new sustainable business models.

// 03

The INDUSTRIAL DATA SPACE INITIA-TIVE was set up jointly by German bus- iness, political and research commu-nities. Its key objective is to establish both the development and utilization of INDUSTRIAL DATA SPACE at both European and international levels.

The FRAUNHOFER-GESELLSCHAFT RESEARCH PROJECT of the same name is funded by the Federal Minis-try of Education and Research (BMBF) and aims at developing a reference

architecture model for INDUSTRIAL DATA SPACE and piloting it in selected use cases.

This work is closely connected to the activities of the INDUSTRIAL DATA SPACE ASSOCIATION. The association pools the interests of users in industry, services and the retail trade. In particular, the association identifies, analyses and evaluates the users’ requirements for INDUSTRIAL DATA SPACE, supports the development of the reference architec-ture and encourages its standardisation.

INDUSTRIAL DATA SPACE stands for secure data exchange between companies in which the data provider is always the owner of that data and still keeps control over the use of their data.

SECURE DATA EXCHANGE

It forms the basis for a variety of certifiable software solutions, smart services and business models, the development of which is encouraged by the association.

INDUSTRIAL DATA SPACE – THIS IS OUR MISSION:

// 0706 //

PRIVATE DATA GOODS

This is data which is critical for maintaining competitiveness, e.g. data about a company’s most recent product models that are only stored at the company itself and are subject to special protection. INDUSTRIAL DATA SPACE helps companies to transfer this data safely to trustworthy destinations.

PUBLIC DATA

This includes weather data, road traffic department data or data hot spots in Germany. INDUSTRIAL DATA SPACE makes this public data available in a standardised way.

SECURE DATA EXCHANGE INDUSTRIAL DATA SPACE WANTS TO DO MORE: A SPACE USED BY EVERYBODY

Secure data exchange between certified participants is a fundamental characteristic of INDUSTRIAL DATA SPACE. By using INDUSTRIAL DATA SPACE, secure exchange between business partners in business eco-systems is permanently simplified. Data from a wide range of sources and industries – for example both public and internal company data – can easily be combined and used with INDUSTRIAL DATA SPACE.

CLUB GOODS

This is data which is used jointly in a closed community, e.g. in a specific supply chain.

This could include, for example, status data for manufacturing or features of spare parts in

collaborative maintenance scenarios. Here, INDUSTRIAL DATA SPACE serves as a central

data hub for a closed group.

m

INDUSTRIAL DATA SPACE creates a “Network of Trusted

Data” – an open and, at the same time, safe data space.

// 0908 //

The question “Who do the goods belong to?” is not posed in the material world anymore. In the world of data that is (still) different. Data, for example, can be copied and reproduced as often as necessary without any loss in quality, a funda-mental difference to the material world. INDUSTRIAL DATA SPACE takes this idea into account: Technical precautions create the necessary conditions to regulate property rights in the digital world.

OWNERSHIP STRUCTURES AND SAFETY PRECAUTIONS have to be set up in a transparent and trustworthy way for all participants in business.

ONLY INDEPENDENT INSTITUTIONS

and technologies can guarantee that they play by the

rules which are necessary and accepted in society.

SYSTEMATIC SECURITY

Basically, data is only exchanged in INDUSTRIAL DATA SPACE if and when it is required by trustworthy, certified partners. Just as there are different levels of security – from simple lockers up to highly secure safes – in the material world, INDUSTRIAL DATA SPACE is also aiming at a hierarchy of security levels – from low, like for monitoring transactions, up to highly secure for company-critical data.

m

INDUSTRIAL DATA SPACE

creates the technical data conditions for a multitude

of industries.

SECURELY NETWORKED ON DEMAND

A particular feature of INDUSTRIAL DATA SPACE is the fact that the companies themselves determine who is allowed to use their data and in what way, and that they keep control over their data at all times: The data remains with their owner and is securely networked on demand – and with time limits if necessary. Data use can include one-off use of the data and its subsequent deletion or repeated use. Another option could be the complete transfer of data ownership.

DATA SOVEREIGNTY INDUSTRIAL DATA SPACE DOES MORE: EXCHANGE ON DEMAND

// 1110 //

INDUSTRIAL DATA SPACE has

an infrastructural character.

The more participants there are,

the more attractive it becomes

for data providers and data

users and for providers of data

services.

The clouds or cloud services

of big providers

can be included in INDUSTRIAL

DATA SPACE by means of one

single interface.

The connector can be extended with task-specific

apps at any time.

EVEN TODAY companies have to set up individual data spaces with specific software for each of their business fields and each use case.

IN FUTURE, IN INDUSTRIAL DATA SPACE, all companies will have access to a uniform supplier-independent software: via the so-called Connector.

There are already many parallel solutions available which ensure secure data exchange while protecting digital ownership. INDUSTRIAL DATA SPACE, however, endeavours to do more: It stands for an architecture that combines everything, that can be used by any company and which sets an international standard.

OPENNESS

TRANSPARENCY

FLEXIBILITY

INDIVIDUALITY

The connector can be tailored to any industry using specific vocabularies.

The connector serves as an interface for all participants

in INDUSTRIAL DATA SPACE.

The connector is certified according to jointly determined rules.

DESIGN INDUSTRIAL DATA SPACE FOR YOUR NEEDS OUR USE CASES

The use cases turn the work of the research project into practical reality. Services and functionalities are designed and validated in the use cases. Together, business and research develop prototypical references for the participating companies. New members can join in existing use cases at any time or initiate new use cases themselves.

Use cases from production, logistics and trade are e.g. control of inbound and outbound logistics, improved equipment maintenance by micro navigation, online cargo monitoring, intelligent information about stock.

Further industry-specific use cases are e. g. central provision of clinical data as an innovation driver for product development in the pharmaceutical industry, dynamic time- frame management and tracking in the cross- company supply chain of the steel industry, monitoring the upstream and downstream supply chain in the automobile industry, transport monitoring of tank wagons in the chemical industry

The INDUSTRIAL DATA SPACE ASSOCIATION is open for all companies. It pools the requirements of its members for INDUSTRIAL DATA SPACE, it organises the way the business and research communities share experience and know-how and develops criteria and guidelines for the certification, standardisation and utilisation of research results.

OUR WORKING GROUPS

The association develops the industry’s requirements for research in four working groups:

The Use Cases & Requirements working group pools companies’ requirements in the use cases, develops the use cases, accompanies and evaluates them.

In the Architecture working group representatives of the user companies develop the reference architecture model further.

The Standardisation working group develops a common vocabulary and creates the basis for simple, cross-industry and open standards.

The Utilisation working group deals with the design of future business models made possible by INDUSTRIAL DATA SPACE.
