Case Study: Rockwell Automation achieves high-performance, flexible data management with FairCom DB

Rockwell Automation powers Studio 5000 for 20+ years with FairCom

Rockwell Automation, a global industrial automation company, needed an embedded database solution that could provide high performance, tight integration, and fine-grained control for its Studio 5000 software suite without sacrificing speed. They turned to vendor FairCom and its product, FairCom DB, to meet these demanding requirements for their mission-critical application.

The solution implemented by FairCom was the embedded model of FairCom DB, which provided Rockwell with the high throughput, resilience, and low-level control needed for their data-intensive operations. The results included the ability to develop performance-sensitive features with minimal caching and to maintain the product's evolution over 20 years. FairCom's solution played a key role in enabling Rockwell Automation to produce one of the market's most reliable automation solutions.
