1.2 Why Choose Koios?

1.2.1 Why KoiosLT Is Needed

Industrial Control Systems are in desperate need for real-world, reliable methods for optimizing process control and increasing process efficiencies.  Machine Learning is a leading choice for process optimization due to its ability to perform control over a process that is unmatched by the existing control system technologies, like the Proportional Integral Derivative (PID) controller, or Multi-Variable Controller (MVC).  The problem is that facility owners have huge investments and contracts with modern control system software and hardware suppliers, whose systems are not capable of executing machine learning models.  What is needed is a software platform that can work on any control system vendor's setup with little to no modification of the facility owner's existing investments, that is low-cost to install, reliable, and allows for concurrent, real-time execution of machine learning models.  

1.2.2 Why Choose KoiosLT

The KoiosLT is the right choice to meet all these challenges.  The KoiosLT was built from the ground up by Ai-Ops Control System Engineers (CSE) who understand closed loop control over industrial processes, and have built the features that a CSE would like to see.  From the beginning, the software was designed to get from a control systems problem to a machine learning solution in as few clicks as possible.  

1.2.2.1  Hardware

The KoiosLT software can be installed on nearly any CPU architecture or virtual platform.  This gives facility owners and engineers a flexible range in hardware selection and installation.

1.2.2.2  Software Licensing

The KoiosLT software has a flexible software leasing program that is both low cost and easy to understand.  The standard lease on the software is a one (1) year lease.  However, if you are not a fan of leasing your software, or if your company has specialized needs concerning OpEx or CapEx expenses, then perpetual licensing programs and multi-year leases are also available.

1.2.2.3  Software Installation

Ai-Ops initially installs all the KoiosLT software on the hardware or virtual appliance selected.  We bench test all installations to ensure that when it is delivered, it works.
