Hi all,
currently the production industry is all about “industry 4.0” and this mainly
covers topics like: Cloud, BigData, Machine Learning … while we know that
Apache has a lot to offer in that regard.
Still Siemens is doing a lot in promoting their MindSphere platform and are
gaining some traction in the industry.
Especially in the IoT projects of Apache it would be great to be able to talk
to that platform the same way we can with Azure, Google, AWS, … unfortunately
an insanely expensive membership is needed.
In all of my recent meetings with Siemens, I always underlined that I would
love to support MindSphere, but I and I bet most others here at Apache are
definitely not going to pay 10k€/year in order to develop software for Siemens
in my free time. Now after a lot of constant nagging on different occasions, I
was told that even if Apache is not a research or academic institiution, they
would be willing to grant the ASF the same status. However someone with the
formal capacity to do so would have to fill out the form.
So my question is: Would there be an interest in this? And who should I involve
in this?
Christofer,
I did not forget you. I am still on it. Actually on both -- S7 spec and
MindSphere legal. I do have a contact now from Digital Factory who can
provide sufficient information for S7. I went to Nuremberg on Wed/Thu
for the MindSphere stuff, but unfortunately my intermediate contact has
got sick. As far as I remember our last discussion with the MindSphere
board, they did not fully understand our rationale. I'll try to setup a
Circuit meeting with me, her (intermediate), them and you. I'll hand
over the mic to you and you can speak your mind.
Btw, I do have now an admin tenant access to the IoT Value Plan and was
happily able to simulate a toilet flush with JMeter and the Time Series API.
Regards,
Michael
