We are making integration within our OT system and across OT systems- like fire systems, security systems and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.schneider-electric.us\/en\/product-range\/62111-ecostruxure%E2%84%A2-building-operation?subNodeId=4296819525en_US\">BMS<\/a>&#8211; intuitive and easy. Partners and integrators, such as our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.schneider-electric.com\/en\/partners\/ecoxpert\/\">EcoXperts<\/a>, can freely leverage our Smart Connectors using published SDKs and open APIs.\u00a0 Plus, our platform offers one single backbone for buildings, so that partners can use it everywhere and customers can have a similar experience in New York and Bangalore. This is true scalability.<\/p>\n<p>The cloud-based platform is open, flexible and exposes data in a friendly\/usable structure. This enables collaboration with innovative start-ups that may need the data to deliver value to buildings users.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, with our platform, users can gather data easily and at massive scale as well as integrate data from various OT systems.\u00a0 With its structure and organization, the data is easily available so that we can provide analytics and applications to drive superior insight and actionable outcomes helping users get the best of their buildings.<\/p>\n<p>The value we can deliver in buildings is focused around 4 categories:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>More Engaging:<\/strong> We help create more engaging buildings- buildings that offer a comfortable environment for occupants, that help make them productive and ultimately turn into engaging places to live and work.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Hyper-Efficient:<\/strong> We enable new levels of efficiency. We call it hyper-efficiency. Hyper-efficiency goes beyond the gains coming from traditional automation. It gets a boost from connectivity, big data and analytics.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Truly Sustainable<\/strong>: We also help create truly sustainable buildings- buildings that have a limited carbon footprint. Truly sustainable buildings optimize energy efficiency.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Always Simple:<\/strong> Finally, we help create simpler buildings- buildings that are easier, faster, cheaper to install. This brings value to our partners and ultimately to the full value-chain.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>To discover how EcoStruxure Building can help deliver value to you and your employees by turning data into actionable insights, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.schneider-electric.com\/en\/work\/campaign\/innovation\/buildings.jsp\">visit our site<\/a> or come back soon for my final blog in the <u>Re-Inventing Buildings<\/u> series where I will discuss how smart buildings deliver business value.<\/p>\n<p>If you like this blog, you may enjoy other blogs under the <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.schneider-electric.com\/building-management\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">building management<\/a> topic.<\/p>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/blog.schneider-electric.com\/building-management\/2018\/06\/12\/buildings-re-invented-part-2-how-to-turn-buildings-data-chaos-into-meaningful-insights\/\">Buildings Re-Invented Part 2:  How to Turn Buildings Data Chaos Into Meaningful Insights<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/blog.schneider-electric.com\">Schneider Electric Blog<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.schneider-electric.com\/building-management\/2018\/06\/12\/buildings-re-invented-part-2-how-to-turn-buildings-data-chaos-into-meaningful-insights\/\" target=\"bwo\" >http:\/\/blog.schneider-electric.com\/feed\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><strong>Credit to Author: Laurent Bataille| Date: Tue, 12 Jun 2018 13:20:05 +0000<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In my last blog, I discussed the trends leading to the re-invention of buildings.\u00a0 In this blog, I will discuss how buildings can become optimized by translating data into meaningful&#8230;  <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.schneider-electric.com\/building-management\/2018\/06\/12\/buildings-re-invented-part-2-how-to-turn-buildings-data-chaos-into-meaningful-insights\/\" title=\"ReadBuildings Re-Invented Part 2:  How to Turn Buildings Data Chaos Into Meaningful Insights\">Read more &#187;<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/blog.schneider-electric.com\/building-management\/2018\/06\/12\/buildings-re-invented-part-2-how-to-turn-buildings-data-chaos-into-meaningful-insights\/\">Buildings Re-Invented Part 2:  How to Turn Buildings Data Chaos Into Meaningful Insights<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/blog.schneider-electric.com\">Schneider Electric Blog<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"colormag_page_container_layout":"default_layout","colormag_page_sidebar_layout":"default_layout","footnotes":""},"categories":[12389,12388],"tags":[12711,12425,12629,12432,17069,18718,12429,18441,18719],"class_list":["post-12552","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-scadaics","category-schneider","tag-bms","tag-building-management","tag-buildings","tag-ecostruxure","tag-ecostruxure-building","tag-ecostruxure-for-buillding","tag-ecoxpert","tag-ecoxperts","tag-smart-connectors"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.palada.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12552","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.palada.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.palada.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.palada.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.palada.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12552"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"http:\/\/www.palada.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12552\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.palada.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12552"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.palada.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=12552"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.palada.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=12552"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
