FOSTER CITY, California, June 26, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --
- EnergyIP® Smart Grid Application Platform Achieves Oracle Exadata Optimized Status
eMeter, A Siemens Business today announced it has completed a 50 million meter benchmark test, meaning its EnergyIP Smart Grid Application Platform can provide utilities of any size with the energy consumption analytics they require for risk-free growth. As part of the benchmarking process, eMeter achieved Oracle Exadata Optimized status through Oracle PartnerNetwork (OPN), demonstrating that EnergyIP has been tested and tuned with Oracle Exadata Database Machine to deliver speed, scalability and reliability to energy and water utility customers.
eMeter, A Siemens Business was acquired by Siemens in January 2012 and is one of Siemens' Smart Grid strategic cornerstones and the software powerhouse responsible for the Siemens Grid Application Platform. EnergyIP is in use by electric, gas and water utilities in over 16 countries. eMeter, A Siemens Business is a Gold level member in Oracle PartnerNetwork.
"In our testing, we achieved a sustained meter read processing of over 400 million intervals per hour, completing processing in under six hours, exceeding the daily handling criteria to scale to 50 million meters while utilizing under 60% of Oracle Exadata resources," said Lisa Caswell, President, eMeter, A Siemens Business. "These results demonstrate that EnergyIP, working with Oracle Exadata Database Machine, can provide industry leading scalability and deliver billing quality energy consumption data ready for use by multiple applications, including analytics. Factors like mergers and the growth of shared services mean many utilities have to manage a rapidly growing amount of data. The ability to scale to 50 million meter ensures our customers predictable and stable performance with a risk-free growth and scaling path."
"eMeter, A Siemens Business, worked with Oracle to test the scalability of our Smart Grid Application Platform, EnergyIP, with the Oracle Exadata. The outstanding results proved that Oracle Exadata Database Machine can support the demanding requirements of mega utilities and cloud service providers, with proven performance well into the 50 million meter range," said Shannon Amerman, VP Alliances, eMeter, A Siemens Business.
Testing EnergyIP 7.6 with Oracle Exadata was based on multiple real world scenarios requiring estimation of missing data, computing and delivering time-of-use billing values, and updating database records related to high-volume smart meter installations and normal daily customer changes. Combined with the meter read processing, these "day in the life" scenarios required less than nine hours processing time and averaged less than 50% of Oracle Exadata capacity.
