The Challenge
Aker Solutions, a global leader in providing subsea production control systems for the oil and gas industry, was facing a challenge with the increasing sophistication of its products and control technologies. The offshore oil and gas production environment is one of the most demanding engineering environments, and the rising complexity of Aker's products was creating a growing need to store, manipulate, and share data across networks of devices located on the seabed, on production platforms, and onshore. To meet the demands of future product generations, Aker Solutions identified the need for a new database management system that could handle high volumes of data, be compatible with embedded and conventional systems, and maintain data integrity in the offshore environment where communication links may suffer disruption and interruption.
