Bentley Systems CONNECTION Event in Mumbai commences on August 26
After the tremendous success of CONNECTION Event in Chennai, Bentley Systems, Incorporated, the leading company dedicated to providing comprehensive software solutions for sustaining infrastructure, is all set to host the dynamic two day event at The Lalit, Mumbai on 26th -27th August.
In addition to the insightful sessions by Bentley’s project experts from India and abroad, the Mumbai CONNECTION Event will also include presentations by the users of Bentley Software highlighting the achievements incurred through advancements in technology and also through innovative best practices on the part of the respective user organization. The event will be a great platform for all participating infrastructure professionals in terms of learning about latest technologies, and networking with peers from the industry.
During the CONNECTION Event, attendees will discover Bentley’s CONNECT Edition that provides a common environment for comprehensive project delivery – comprising a common modeling environment, common performance environment, and common data environment. The CONNECT Edition leverages the Microsoft Azure cloudservice to span hybrid computing configurations for every project and enterprise. From the Franklin Institute in Philadelphia, Pa. in May, the CONNECTION Event series has moved on to 28 cities around the globe over the next five months.
MicroStation CONNECT Edition: Introductory Access Program
MicroStation CONNECT Edition provides the common modeling environment for comprehensive infrastructure delivery. Its innovations, which include functional components and a common documentation center, enable optioneering across disciplines.
Santanu Das, Bentley senior vice president, design and simulation, said, “I would like to thank the users we invited to robustly exercise MicroStation CONNECT Edition through the Early Access Program. Now we are extending an invitation to every MicroStation SELECT subscriber, along with every SELECT Open Access subscriber and Enterprise License Subscriber, to introduce MicroStation CONNECT Edition (SELECTseries 1) into their current toolset – to facilitate this advancement, there is no change from the MicroStation V8i file format.”
Navigator CONNECT Edition: Introductory Access Program
The Navigator CONNECT Edition “app-lication” enables project participants to advance beyond visualization to visibility for issue resolution. Its features include a touch-enabled interface; availability for both desktop and mobile operating systems (including Microsoft, iOS, and Android); and a single, consistent experience for users across all of their touch-enabled devices – from tablets to large touch screens, and from office to site to field.
Keith Bentley, Bentley Systems founder and CTO, said, “Our development ofNavigator CONNECT Edition, along with the mobile i-model technologies supporting it, has been one of my favorite projects across our 30-year history. I think that every user of MicroStation and our applications will find it valuable to useNavigator CONNECT Edition to extend their work to every device, in the course of their day and across their projects. So we’ve also made it a great value, requiring only a nominally-priced Bentley CONNECTIONS Passport subscription.”
The Navigator CONNECT Edition Introductory Access Program was opened on July 15, 2015, for CONNECTIONS Passport holders. All others are also welcome to take part in the Navigator CONNECT Edition Test Drive. Those completing a test drive will be eligible to win prizes, including Microsoft Surface Pro 3 computers.
CONNECTED Partner Program
The robustness of the CONNECT Edition’s common modeling environment enables Bentley to extend Project Playbooks and Personal Playlists to include application tools from CONNECTED Partners – with SELECT service-based licensing and administration, including through SELECT Open Access and Enterprise License Subscriptions. Initial CONNECTED Partner offerings include:
· LumenRT (e-on software) – for “visual optioneering,” with real-time, immersive interaction, enlivening infrastructure environments with rich libraries of dynamic content. With the “cinematic” quality of LumenRT scenes and intuitive, hands-on interface, every engineer can envision his or her proposed design alternatives as they would be experienced in actual operation.
· ADDS (Roussey Solutions) – for electric utility designers to optioneer underground residential distribution, minimizing provisioning cost and network loads.
