Platform Configuration

Understand the structure of your unique ENLYZE Platform

The ENLYZE Manufacturing Data Platform collects and combines production data from various sources to generate actionable insights. It is structured around key entities such as Sites, Machines, Data Sources, and SPARKs.

This guide explains how to view and understand the structure and configuration of your specific platform setup.

Your SPARKs

A SPARK is an edge device installed on-site that connects your production equipment to the ENLYZE platform. Depending on your setup, one or more SPARKs may be installed at your facilities. Each SPARK has:

  • a unique host-name,

  • port specific configurations

  • and connects to one or more data sources.

To learn more about SPARK hardware, port functions, and configuration details, refer to the SPARK Documentation.

SPARK Overview

In the ENLYZE Web Application, you can consult the SPARKs installed at your facilities. To do so, navigate to Settings > SPARKs. The section provides you with an overview of all your SPARKs with connection status and the data sources they read:

SPARK Detail View

Select a SPARK from the list to open a detailed side panel. This view provides important information about the SPARK like:

  • Current connection status with last readout time

  • Port configuration details

  • Connected data sources with their individual connection status
