Today’s Challenge The volume, velocity, and variability of data produced by Utility operations managing and delivering resources

is the very definition of Big Data. The ability to capture, transform, and turn data into intelligence is critical to

optimizing the increasingly complex operations infrastructure of today’s Utility.

Meeting New Challenges with a Trusted PartnerFor over 20 years, Utilities throughout the world have trusted LiveData to meet the challenges of

managing, optimizing, and expanding their services. LiveData RTI 6.0 extends functionality to meet new

industry demands for agility, high-availability, visualization, and cyber security.

Point-and-Click Configuration LiveData RTI 6.0 provides a graphical Configuration

Manager that simplifies the complexity of operations

technology integration and enables Utilities to rapidly

create new, or modify existing, transactional data flows.

Users simply point and click to configure data flow

between sources such as grid devices, RTUs, and software

applications. Setup patterns can be replicated to speed

building data flows, and intelligent configurations can be

developed and applied network-wide as a batch for fast

deployment.

High-AvailabilityLiveData RTI High-Availability™ (LD/HA) solutions are

designed to increase customer uptime and ease ongoing

system management. LD/HA supports three deployment

options: Native, using LiveData RTI servers; Load Balancer,

with a load balancing appliance; and Windows Server

Failover Clustering.

LiveData RTI Empowers Utilities to:

fStandardize on a single operations technology

platform for secure, real-time communication

and integration

fCapture, transform, and securely deliver bi-

directional real-time data to operational systems

to improve reliability, safety, security, and service

fSimplify configuring and deploying connected

assets across a utility grid and with regional

markets and system operators

fSecurely segment assets to meet NERC CIP

cyber security requirements of today and

tomorrow

Empower Operations Teams to:

fVisualize the current state of the grid

fMonitor and respond to rapidly changing, complex operations

fSecurely receive and send communications across the grid

Intelligent IntegrationLiveData Real-Time Integration™ (RTI) is the trusted

middleware Utilities throughout the world use as their

communications and integration platform. LiveData

RTI provides operational intelligence that enables

companies to deliver on their business imperatives:

safe, secure, and reliable supply of critical services.

Capture, Transform, Deliver

Capture Data

LiveData RTI simultaneously captures data from

thousands of distributed devices, systems, and

databases—from RTUs to sophisticated management

applications. LiveData RTI intelligently transacts via all

major utility and industry protocols, including ICCP /

TASE.2, IEC 61850, OPC, DNP 3.0, MultiSpeak, CIM, Web

Services, and Modbus. It also interfaces to proprietary

message-based systems such as Tibco Rendezvous,

SQL databases, and new Smart Grid applications.

Cyber Security LiveData RTI Network Segmentation™ offers solutions

designed to meet NERC CIP requirements and to secure

Utility networks where real-time data monitoring and

grid-state situational analysis must be considered in

tandem to provide the appropriate defense against

cyber attack.

LiveData RTI Network Segmentation provides threat

mitigation with the transparency required to meet

current and future cyber security regulatory mandates.

LiveData RTI Network Segmentation

Transform into Intelligence

With LiveData RTI, data from operational systems is

transformed into the formats required by strategic

applications. Easy-to-use configuration tools convert

raw data into the application-specific intelligence that

enables EMS, DMS, SCADA, DCS, OMS, NMS, and GMS

systems to reach their full operational potential.

Securely Deliver in Real-time

Optimized for secure, real-time, high-volume, bi-

directional communication, LiveData RTI provides

a flexible, easily-extensible platform for integrating

disparate data types, communication protocols, and

data standards. LiveData RTI provides immediate

access to operational intelligence, enabling grid

management systems to receive and send data to

improve response times, reliability, safety, security,

and service.
