Multi-, what does it mean? In fact, it is to integrate multiple systems from different suppliers into one piece. Simply put, there are not many suppliers, each with its own system. When working, it feels that these systems are doing their own things, and it is difficult to communicate. At this time, I thought of a trick to get a integration. Let these systems help each other and cooperate normally, and solve the major problem of mutual discomfort and inability to work together. For example, if a large project involves many equipment and systems from different manufacturers, this "Multi-" can be used, unified scheduling and collaborative division of labor.
The key here is not just a connection, but actually there are a lot of troubles here. First of all, the communication protocols used in different systems are different, and the communication protocols are like different languages used by people to speak. Some people speak Chinese, some say Español. It’s not okay to know how to translate and convey it when communicating! The technical standards of different suppliers must be different in size. If there are 5 to 6th grade quality requirements, as long as the grade reaches three quality items, the inconsistency will definitely lead to shortage. The data format problem is also difficult to solve. Some are packed into bag A, while others are stored in bag B. In short, it is difficult to connect and they must be effectively and accurately connected.
We can solve these problems in many ways.
First, create a common framework design blueprint. We must design a solution that can meet the different needs of everyone. For example, plan how to separate space and what functions to place for your store before renovating, and plan how to arrange the system role functions of these different suppliers in this overall architecture, so that everyone can perform their own duties in a suitable manner.
To establish standards, communicate with agreements, and everyone participates in compliance with common standards. It's like a promise that everyone will use a translator. Communications are scheduled to use a public data interaction standard, and various instructions are transmitted and connected according to this process to ensure that the data signal is interpreted in place and not stuck when it is circulated.
Choose middleware products responsible for these docking and connection functions or directly purchase platforms, reliable connectors are very important. Just like when we choose solid and reliable adhesives to build a house, we can save trouble. Like some dedicated integrated platforms, they can act as intermediary and hubs, and smoothly transition and connect to different systems.
There is something easy to be confused about. Some people may wonder why not just cut off the complexity and choose only one supplier? Although you can choose one, the limitations are that many single suppliers cannot meet different requirements in all aspects, and it is difficult to take into account multiple fields to be proficient and complete; and without competition from other companies, they are prone to slack off and lack of service and innovation capabilities. Through the integration and integration of multi-, each unique craft can be fully utilized, such as letting the cabbage supplier manage the best planting of his territory, and then the radish supplier also carefully supplies the best and most high-quality radish, making use of its strengths, and each other can learn from each other and drive each other!
In practice, we face many other problems. For example, what should I do about the compatibility of the device? When you want to start officially, you can carefully test how to connect equipment from various manufacturers. If the actual integration is completed, it is discovered that the combination of sensor A and control terminal B fails to match, which is a miserable waste of time and labor to change!
There is also the issue of how to monitor different components. Integration, you must track and observe the operating status of each system equipment component! Otherwise, it will take a long time to find out that it will be scary enough and it will be very troublesome to deal with! We must use appropriate monitoring software and hardware to guard records throughout the whole process without blind spots, and detect abnormalities early, and try to solve the risks quickly and eliminate them as soon as possible.
Let me ask again, how many maintenance personnel should be kept in the later stage of manual labor management to maintain good operation? It is also necessary to understand who is responsible for the different systems and deal with them in a timely and professional manner. In this way, it maintains a reliable operation regardless of daily supervision or emergencies.
Speaking of the importance of resource utilization of global procurement systems, we provide global procurement services for weak current intelligent products! When integrating resources of different suppliers, if you choose procurement methods in multiple scopes, you can play a big role in making use of different intelligent accessories and equipment in weak current. The entire integration process can be enriched and diversified, and the final result will be more advanced and used in combination, right? The quality and functional satisfaction of the selected components can be greatly improved. Therefore, Multi- is an indispensable link and guarantee for future complex projects. We should pay attention to this integration work and continue to explore and deal with the possible situations.
