Through a series of deep industry partnerships, Microsoft delivers the first of its kind, managed OSDU\u2122<\/sup> Data Platform in the cloud that unlocks operator\u2019s data and connects it across applications in a secure and resilient environment, globally. OSDU is a standardized set of services, workflows, and data schemas that allow the industry to speak a common data language making data more accessible without being locked in by individual applications. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Microsoft Azure Data Manager for Energy, developed in collaboration with SLB, is now available in preview<\/a>. Microsoft has built this fully managed, enterprise-grade service to OSDU Technical Standard. By adopting the platform, energy companies will have access to new ways of both managing and using their data as well as access to a wide range of applications from SLB and other independent software vendors (ISVs). Our rich partner ecosystem is key to delivering on customer expectations and the innovation potential that exists in the OSDU vision. With this release, Microsoft also brings connectivity to a range of our first-party applications that our customers and partners know and love.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Azure Data Manager for Energy is designed to help organizations get more value from their data by scaling ingestion and data enrichment, easy interoperability, and unlocking self-serve data analytics capabilities. With this solution, businesses can unlock data to work across multiple applications. The power of Microsoft Azure provides energy companies with the right compute stock keeping units (SKUs), improving efficiency by freeing them from focusing on infrastructure. With Azure Data Manager for Energy, energy companies can be up and running an OSDU Data Platform within hours. Customers can migrate their largest datasets and workloads to the cloud while continuing to use the familiar domain applications that they depend on to achieve data insights. Enabling these workflows on the platform will help drive improved operational efficiency and open connectivity to a range of cloud services.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to having connectivity to SLB\u2019s world-class applications out of the box, Microsoft maintains its commitment to build a global ecosystem of trusted partners. Azure Data Manager for Energy is built to be an extensible and open platform which embraces all OSDU Data Platform applications across the energy domain. Together, Microsoft and our global partners are advancing how energy companies optimize and interact with data.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Better data insights <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe see Microsoft Azure Data Manager for Energy as a comprehensive industry solution at\u2013scale to transform data and application landscapes and liberate data from application silos. Wipro is a proud long-term partner of Microsoft in the energy industry and is fully ready to implement and operate this historic industry solution as the sector goes through a fundamental transformation.\u201d<\/em>\u2014Sidharth Mishra, Vice President and Global Lead for Energy domain and consulting services, Wipro. <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Data management is the cornerstone of energy companies\u2019 long-term success. Decision makers rely on accurate data to improve confidence and minimize risk. The nature and size of data that energy companies manage daily are so large, that it can become cumbersome to access and distill. The problem of data management is becoming an increasing impediment to innovation and efficient operations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For many companies, critical data is siloed inside a multitude of individual applications requiring considerable time, people, and money to discover, condition, simulate, and manage. To improve business management, reduce costs, and stay competitive, energy companies have an urgent need to liberate this data from individual applications so they can start to bring together previously disparate data for better decision-making. In upstream, for example, there has been a need for decades for the wells team to be able to access some of the seismic work but due to data location or permissions, this is often impossible.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The solution unifies data through a common data model allowing companies control over their own data while maintaining the benefit of their trusted third-party applications.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n
