AReS Libertas ODS Platform

Testing of E/E systems and vehicle validation are domains with a growing complexity due to the increasing number of variants, regulations, and software systems. Data acquisition systems and loggers record a vast amount of data that must be shared globally for engineers and analysts to work with.

 

Our “AReS Libertas ODS Platform” is a Test Data Management Platform providing global access to measured data of the whole enterprise. It is designed to grow with the challenges in your enterprise. With the AReS Gateway, the platform provides a single-entry node for any ASAM ODS-based application or system. Due to the microservices nature of the backend, all HTTP end nodes are scalable and on-demand services within the enterprise or cloud context. The services are fully integrated with Docker and Kubernetes for managed scalability. AReS Libertas deliberately supports data storage with common access in multiple locations.

 

The Ares Libertas ODS Platform works with all ASAM ODS clients including our ASAMCommander for engineers, IT administrators, and HQL Query language for analysts. The platform stores and manages data from most acquisition systems, loggers, test stands, and file formats and works with any domain including battery, calibration, logger, NVH, safety, powertrain, and more.

    Global Enterprise Test Data Management

    With our products and services, we handle all processes from data onboarding and validation, data management, to data analysis.

     

    We specialize in taking time-, frequency-, and event-based raw data from any acquisition system, sensor, vehicle, or proprietary format, combining it with valuable project information. Our ODS servers/platforms are a central gateway for all users and applications in the enterprise working with measured data.

     

    We provide modular and customizable management solutions for end-users (ASAMCommander), a convenient query library (HQL) for tools integration, development, or analysis, and a technology-independent framework for backend integration of custom algorithms (Merlin).

     

    Our ASAM ODS-based software supports all testing domains including battery, calibration, emissions, logger, powertrain, NVH, safety, vehicles, and more.

    New Features

    ASAM ODS 6.1 compatibility

    Our AReS Libertas ODS Platform is compatible with the new ASAM ODS 6.1 definitions and interface, thus introducing HTTP / REST as a new interface. Now, it has become very easy to communicate with the server, integrate web applications, or exchange information via JSON. The platform can run in parallel to the Avalon ODS Server.

    Plankton Service Layer

    The Plankton Platform is a newly introduced abstraction layer that provides the integration of any data source - including none ASAM ODS physical storage such as Elastic Search or GraphDBs. Ultimately, AReS Libertas is not only a server but becomes a distributed Test Data Management Platform working with the data sources needed.

    AReS Gateway

    The AReS Gateway is designed as a scalable single node entry point to enterprise Test Data repositories. All queries from different applications, locations, and different projects can run through one node while being distributed to a horizontally scalable backend.

    Docker & Kubernetes

    Ares Libertas does support Docker containerization. This assists the rollout of the system and reduces the administration efforts of customized ODS systems. With Kubernetes, AReS Libertas ODS Platforms run as a service within an orchestrated system environment with automated software deployment, scaling of services, and services management.

    Web Configuration

    The platform comes with a web module that assists IT, administrators, with the installation and configuration of the server and database. Configurations can be managed, imported, and exported. Configurations can be adapted to various use-cases, clients, and data types.

    Custom Analysis Integration

    The utilization of the containers with Kubernetes enables the scalability of the system. The AReS Libertas ODS Platforms run as a service within an orchestrated system environment with automated software deployment, scaling of services, and services management.

    ASAMCommander: Monitoring and Logging

    With the ASAMCommander, we provide a web application that includes the administration modules “Monitoring” and “Logging”. We keep all vital information about AReS Libertas ODS Platform in one place: One or multiple instances can be managed, monitored, and their health status supervised. Log information can easily be reviewed, filtered, extracted, and even exported to share with us for detailed analysis. Features include:

    • Multiple Servers Management
    • Sessions and Memory Management
    • File Storage Cockpit
    • Log Information Management

    Please see ASAMCommander for information about further modules.

    Features

    Organized & Validated Testing Data

    Store any related information together with your measurement data to quickly identify, and compare data - even years after recording. Data validation upon import provides standardized data access and availability for sites, departments, and user groups.

    Centralized Data Repositories

    Typically, ASAM ODS runs in a “mixed-mode” with a central database managing the descriptive data and data repositories for the recorded mass data. Our server/platforms support multiple repositories of any type.

    Security & Authentication

    The AReS Livertas ODS platform contains a sophisticated security concept to allow user groups, roles, and access rules down to single attributes. The security information can be integrated and provided by a corporate authentication system via plug-ins (e.g. LDAP).

    Enterprise Scalability

    Test Data Management systems may incorporate multiple locations, time zones, and a high number of users. Use-case base on large data sets, high-performance calculations, and resource-intensive rich client applications. The Avalon ODS Server is not only a single-server setup. It provides horizontal and vertical scalability.

    Notification- / Event- Server

    Test Data Management systems may incorporate multiple locations, time zones, and a high number of users. Use-case based on large data sets, high-performance calculations, and resource-intensive rich client applications. The Avalon ODS Server is not only a single-server setup. It provides horizontal and vertical scalability.

    Universal Tool Integration

    Many tools already integrate seamlessly with our AReS Libertas ODS Platform, for example, Concerto, DIAdem, Matlab, and many others. In many cases, our software is the basis for homegrown Test Data Management applications, which typically are web applications to including corporate processes and use-cases, and individual scripting.
