AVEVA BI Gateway

The BI Gateway training is a 2-Day instructor-led training. The goal of BI Gateway training is to teach how to use BI Gateway, when BI Gateway can be used and how to visualize and/or analyze manufacturing data. Students will gradually build their own BI Gateway model while the required knowledge is provided accordingly. Students will get perfect understanding of the added value by visualizing their own output data.

The goal of this training is to get an understanding on how the BI Gateway works and when to use it. With the conceptual knowledge about the processes that BI Gateway executes, one is able to build a data model that combines and contextualizes manufacturing data coming from multiple sources and knows how to consume and analyze this data.
