Peak (Test) Data Transfer Tool: Basis for implementing a central "Measurement Data Hub"

With Peak (Test) Data Transfer Tool (short: PeakDTT), Peak Solution offers a generic command line tool that convert measurement data and metadata of certain data sources into a defined data target within the scope of different processes. Currently the tool provides plugins for the following data formats: ATF, ATFx, ODS, MDF4 and ISOMME. Of course, users can add additional plugins for application-specific source and target formats at any time if required.

By means of configurable mechanisms it is e.g. possible to map the different data structures of the connected source systems to a uniform ODS application model. In this way, test field manager can easily implement a central and standardized "measurement data hub" for several measuring systems of different vendors. The following figure gives an overview:

Using the Peak ODS server, various ODS clients can subsequently access the measurement data uniformly and interpret it correctly. In addition, the Peak (Test) Data Transfer Tool can be used to exchange application models between different ODS applications via ATFx.
