Powerful Connectors

OpenPDM Integrate powerful connectors make it possible to implement the digital thread in your company giving users the ability to work with always up-to-date information across their systems.

Because of OpenPDM’s microservices architecture, separation of mapping engine and connectors, means you get information mapped from the source system to your target system with no data loss. OpenPDM supports read/write functions for all objects, attributes, relations, and files connected in the systems.

Supported operations include:

  • Query objects
  • Create/Read/Update/Delete Business objects
  • Create/Read/Update/Delete Relationships
  • Check-In / Check-Out
  • Login / Logout from backend
  • Transactions
  • Execute Transitions (change lifecycle states)
  • Execute Workflows
  • Modify Ownership/Security/Projects, etc.
  • Download / Upload / Delete Files
  • Bulk operational methods

OpenPDM Architecture

Architecture: OpenPDM supports a micro service oriented architecture where every service can run standalone or in combination with one another. These services can be integrated in any process or engine.

Export/Import Worker: OpenPDM logic is part of the connector service and allows a boost in performance by reducing HTTP calls and direct access to backend specific API.

Mapping: OpenPDM can work standalone or integrated into any other service, supporting XML, Java, and Groovy mapping variants. New variants can easily be integrated.

OpenPDM has a distributed architecture based on microservices utilizing the OpenPDM Unified Component Architecture. Versioned PLM data (metadata, structures, and files) are handled by RESTful interfaces. Our business process engine uses the popular BPMN solution Camunda and is specialized to handle semantical data.

Aras Integration

PROSTEP provides Aras users the ability to integrate their data with numerous systems for end-to-end digitalization and robust bi-directional interoperability.

These solutions from PROSTEP form the basis of digital thread/twin integration to provide Aras users:

  • Integration for bi-directional exchange of data including parts, BOM, CAD, documents, changes, configuration, and more
  • Migration for the decommissioning of systems while consolidating data via all at once (big-bang migration) or over time (co-existence)
  • Federation for creating intelligent, traceable links between systems to give you real time access to data managed in other systems
  • Collaboration for sharing data between different PLM and CAD systems with customers and suppliers

Aras Connectors

PROSTEP gives Aras users OpenPDM integration solutions based on the .NET interface of Aras Innovator, leveraging the PDM layer of PLM systems with ARAS’s CAD/Manufacturing/Simulation Layer.
