PLM Incarnation
PLM, in hands with the Cloud environment has marked the start of a new era engrossing PLM folks. Being a prodigious domain, PLM engineers have not just concentrated on the development in material size, but also in geographical aspects. This requirement has been answered through the cloud platform on which the PLM acts upon. The flexible financial model that the PLM carries in hands with the Cloud, shuns the capital expenses. So, instant deployment of Teamcenter on the Cloud becomes a piece of cake focusing only on the operational expenses.
The IaaS delivery option gives you cost-effective access to enterprise-grade IT infrastructure and resources as well as the flexibility to dynamically scale the infrastructure up or down depending on business fluctuations. PLM-Cloud supports centralized application management teams, allowing the organization to focus on higher-value business processes — such as supplier and partner on-boarding leading to an enhanced collaboration and provides a faster return on investment. TAutodesk and Dassault are two major CAD/ PLM vendors who have officially announced their support for Cloud.
Nexus 360 PLM is a Cloud PLM, coming from Autodesk later this year. Siemens has driven innovation across multiple business units which includes Siemens Mobility, Siemens Power and Gas, and Siemens PLM, using more than 40 services including Amazon Kinesis, Amazon Elastic search Service, and Amazon Athena. PLM has found its way facilitating cost effective products. This incarnation is just around the corner waiting for its wide spread common usage.
