Siemens Xcelerator Portfolio
Siemens Xcelerator is a comprehensive, integrated portfolio of software, services, and application development platform designed to help companies become digital enterprises. This portfolio is part of the Siemens Xcelerator open digital business platform, which represents an ecosystem of technology and service providers that is increasingly made available to customers digitally via a marketplace.
To develop tomorrow’s smart, connected, software-defined products that meet the right functional performance requirements, manufacturers need an IT platform that provides an integrated view of a wide range of business disciplines. Manufacturers also require the most advanced tools for individual productivity and innovation throughout the entire lifecycle of a product and its development process.
The Siemens Xcelerator portfolio supports decision-making and the ability to take action on those decisions by delivering deep engineering and operational insight and comparing such information between the real and digital worlds. The portfolio’s composable IT architecture leverages cloud-based microservices to create an open and flexible digital business platform that creates “just right fit” solutions that can scale across a customer’s organization.
Siemens Xcelerator capabilities are available for deployment on-premises and as a service via the cloud, or in combination. This allows customers to choose the implementation scenario that best matches their IT goals and aspirations.
The Xcelerator portfolio has three pillar characteristics.
Comprehensive digital twin
Siemens enables customers in discrete and process industries to create their most robust and actionable digital twin. Informed decisions can be made, and actions taken, through a closed-loop created between the virtual and physical, leveraging hardware and software solutions, across design and manufacturing worlds.
Personal and adaptable
Siemens provides personalized applications using low-code application development and AI algorithms to adapt the UI to usage experience. Siemens also enables personalized experiences through low code application creation for connectivity to critical business applications within a company’s digital enterprise and external value chain.
Open, modern, flexible ecosystem
Access to the most diverse field of technology partners in an open ecosystem gives Siemens' customers more opportunity to build on their IT investments. Siemens offers a rapid application development platform and microservices along with native cloud and cloud-connected applications to suit any IT strategy.
