Pacifc Controls has made a major innovation in the
area of distributed technology with the development
of intelligent software agents called Gbots. These
agents can be used to monitor, manage and
repair any digital system. The Pacifc Controls’
Galaxy platform offers open APIs so that these
services, and the Gbots, can easily be customized
to the needs of any business, either by Pacifc
Controls’ experienced systems integrators or by
the customer’s IT staff or third party developers
participating in the Galaxy eco-system.
2.1 The Galaxy platform leads
the world in intelligent systems
management
Pacifc Controls cloud platform is designed to
manage large volumes of data, particularly data
from M2M units, and to perform intelligent data
mining to ensure that their customers can extract
the maximum useful information from this data.
The use of M2M makes it simple to gather data
from any device and any location,
sidestepping problems with
networks and frewalls.
The building and city management
systems, deployed in Pacifc
Controls Global Command
Control Center (GCCC), running
on the Galaxy platform, are relied
on by commercial and public
sector clients around the world to
optimize energy use and manage
assets. The GCCC offers the
capability easily to create reports
and dashboards so as to display the results of the
energy optimization and asset management in a
user accessible format via almost any web-enabled
device.
Pacifc Controls is unique in offering Gbots,
intelligent software robots that can be created
by the Galaxy platform and dispatched over the
network to run in control systems anywhere in the
world to diagnose faults, analyze data patterns
and operate systems. There is no other company
anywhere that is able to offer this capability. The
Gbots take a rule based approach to software and
system management tasks and can communicate
with each other and the Galaxy platform in a
responsible and secure process. Gbots can be
confgured dynamically from the Galaxy GCCC to
manage and maintain HVAC and lighting equipment
in any building..
Galaxy- the platform of platforms:
‘Galaxy’- The enterprise city management platform
is the pinnacle of SDP technology. Leveraging this,
Telcos have the opportunity to deliver multiple client
oriented services across diverse verticals. With
the high frequency of connectivity advancements,
Pacifc Controls is well poised to deliver ubiquitous
services that have the potential to quickly
overshadow traditional voice based revenues.
Galaxy is based on Service Oriented Architecture
(SOA) whereby the platform can be mapped in
accordance with the business requirements. The
openness of the platform enables easy third party
integrations with diverse management information
systems to provide consolidated solutions as per
demand. It supports message oriented middleware
for asynchronous bi-directional communication with
third party applications.
Infusing openness to Galaxy is aimed at following
the ‘Generative model’ of the internet or its
‘Generativity’ (Zittrain, 1974) and thus allowing
people around the world to innovate and create
through the web of Galaxy. With features such as
simple aggregation to establishing logic based FDD
for systems, this positions the platform to form the
basis for diverse innovations.
Unique SDP to manage and
deliver diverse services
Galaxy is designed to deliver wide range of services
to empower a quick ROI through strategically rapid
en masse service roll out (quick time to market).
The intent is to enable telco to offer multiple high
volume low margin services and thereby gain
proftability and higher ARPU. The state of the art
technology infused into Galaxy renders it ahead of
competition across verticals.
The scaling up of solutions to deliver volume
services in recent times has been quite a challenge
