Platform building block · pronubes Zones

pronubes Zones creates structure.

pronubes Zones maps locations, production areas, systems, and data flows into a clear structure. This creates the foundation for data-driven production: machines, edge instances, interfaces, and target systems are no longer viewed in isolation, but become visible in the context of their productive use.

What pronubes Zones delivers

Six capabilities pronubes Zones uses to bring order to industrial data architectures.

Structure locations clearly

Map plants, countries, regions, or individual production sites clearly. This makes visible where production data originates.

Map production areas

Structure shop floor, top floor, ERP, MES, cloud, or other areas in a traceable hierarchy.

Assign systems precisely

Assign machines, servers, endpoints, applications, and edge instances to the right areas.

Make data flows visible

Show how data flows between machines, IT systems, edge instances, and applications.

Create production context

pronubes Zones makes visible which site, line, or system a data flow belongs to.

Scalable data architecture

From individual lines to multiple sites, pronubes Zones grows with new machines, systems, and use cases.

Structure for data-driven production

Data-driven production needs more than individual data connections. Production data must be classified where it originates: at machines, lines, sites, IT systems, and target applications.

pronubes Zones creates a clear structure for this. Sites, shop floor areas, ERP systems, MES, cloud applications, edge instances, and data flows are mapped in a traceable environment. This makes visible which systems are connected, where data originates, how it is forwarded, and in what production context it can be used.

From single case to structure

From individual data sources to a connected production structure

Industrial data architectures rarely consist of just one connection. pronubes Zones helps make this environment traceable spatially, organizationally, and functionally.

01

Map the organization

Structure your environment by region, country, plant, city, line, or functional production area.

02

Classify data sources

Assign machines, sensors, edge instances, endpoints, and target systems to the right zones.

03

Understand data flows

See how production data is transmitted between the shop floor, IT systems, platforms, and applications.

This creates a better foundation for monitoring, analysis, automation, and data-driven production processes.

Next step

Make your production data usable through structure.

In 30 minutes, we’ll clarify your data sources, target systems, possible closed-loop use cases, and the requirements for operations and security.

pronubes Edge: local processing once zones are defined

Once sites, areas, and systems are mapped in pronubes Zones, pronubes Edge takes over local capture and processing of production data — directly where it originates.

This creates a continuous chain: structure in pronubes Zones, processing with pronubes Edge, transparency through pronubes Insights.

From data to decisions

AI in production — and back into the process

With pronubes, you make production data usable across systems and enable data-driven responses, optimizations, and event-driven control — directly in production.

01

Make production data usable

We connect machines, systems, and platforms into a consistent data foundation.

02

Turn data into the basis for decisions

Production data becomes the foundation for rules, logic, and data-driven processes.

03

Feed decisions back into production

Results and optimizations act directly on workflows and processes on the shop floor.

AI-assisted Production

AI only becomes valuable once it can be used operationally. pronubes brings AI insights back into the process in a controlled manner — from the assistance system to established optimization.
