The format privatization of CAD/BIM data has been a problem for a long time, both eastern and western industrial software developers regard it as the standard, and it will still become the basic law in the field of digital design software in the foreseeable future.
From the perspective of software developers, data format privatization is conducive to optimizing the functionality and performance of CAD/BIM design software with different modeling engines and principles, and improving the preferences and dependencies of end users. At the same time, the strategy of data format privatization significantly increased the migration and conversion costs of end users, minimized the loss of users, and provided differentiated competitive advantages for CAD/BIM software developers.
PXI-4110 However, from the perspective of users, the privatization of data formats has brought huge cost pressure to the digital transformation of enterprises, especially in the massive downstream usage scenarios, which directly induces the emergence of a large number of pirated users and provides a steady stream of new users for software developers.
With the further rise of the global digital wave, CAD/BIM design software, as the source of digitalization, is bound to produce more functions, create and collect more data, coupled with the inherent characteristics of format privatization, to build a more orderly, powerful and solid information island. CATIA V6/3D Experience, which currently forms a monopoly trend in multiple industries around the world, is a typical case. Industry practice has proved that CAD/BIM design software is increasingly powerful and integrated, resulting in more and more serious problems of data entropy increase, design downstream enterprises to face the challenge and cost is more chaos and disorder, the global manufacturing/construction industry has caused a high degree of attention and deep reflection.
PXI-4110 Western CAD/BIM software is highly monopolized in China, and the technological competition in the high-tech field between China and the United States has pushed up the realistic threat of data security “jam neck”. Many complex systems, complex equipment, and complex engineering product data related to national defense security, strategic security, and economy are created and firmly tied to specific tool platforms, resulting in huge risks to the underlying security of historical data and current data. Data failure, guarantee failure, and equipment loss of control may be caused by “failure of supply” and “failure of service”. It is a huge challenge that Chinese industry must face.
The rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI) has promoted the birth of silicon-based life, the integration of “new quality productivity” needs, the comprehensive upgrading of data governance in the field of national economy and the digital China of “data into the table”, and the privatization of product data formats has become an important obstacle to “machine readable” and “machine understandable”. Decoupling CAD/BIM tool platform for the binding of design data, become the key to solve the industrial product data storage, management, utilization, exchange, artificial intelligence and new quality productivity urgently need high-quality, understandable product data.
This is the first principle on which Hsinhui Technology is founded, grown and long-term developed.
Do the difficult and right thing, this is the choice of Hsinhui technology people.
