Server-based MDO using an SPDM framework

This webinar demonstrates the benefits of a server-based Multidisciplinary Design Optimization (MDO) approach and Simulation and Process Data Management (SPDM).

With a server-based approach, large MDO workflows can be easily managed and collaboration can be stimulated through a modern web interface which is accessible anytime, anywhere. On the execution side, a server-based approach offers many advantages related to distributed execution enabling hybrid compute infrastructures.

SPDM is an important aspect of server-based MDO since it manages the ownership, version control and permissions of all the data and models needed to build and execute complex workflows. With SPDM, MDO becomes a team effort instead of an ‘expert-only’ exercise. Workflows can be quickly upgraded or rolled back to a known state, simplifying the debugging and editing process.
