Managing data across disparate systems and business units is a common challenge to all organizations as they strive to create a single Digital Thread of connected enterprise data. The Aras PLM platform already enables organizations to federate data between Innovator and other systems, but we're striving to make it even easier with Aras Federation Services. This groundbreaking prototype brings together the strengths of the Aras platform with a three-pronged approach: • Modeling: Model your enterprise data systems and how they're connected, just like you'd model data or processes. • Services: Platform-level services increase reusability and reduce the need for custom development. • Extensibility: Leverage community-supported extensions to get up and running - fast!
