EXOKNOX – Data Management for Function Data
EXOKNOX is the first comprehensive and future-proof data management platform for functional property data. It supports the development of mechatronic systems – such as those in the automotive industry – by making functional properties, parameters and maturity levels of vehicle functions and components transparent across all development cycles.
EXOKNOX helps teams:
- understand relationships between vehicle functions, components and their properties
- identify and address conflicts between functional requirements at an early stage
manage and track the maturity of functions and systems across multiple iterations - perform trade-off analyses and make data-driven engineering decisions
Typical application areas:
- Functional development and systems engineering in the automotive industry
Domains with high variant - diversity or complex functional dependencies
- Teams that already feel that spreadsheets, emails and scattered data silos are no longer sufficient to manage functional property data reliably
