The Interactive SDM Console
KOMVOS — SDM Console
The interactive console for browsing, visualising, and handling all CAE data. KOMVOS is the point where data meets its stakeholders in the context of simulation — and serves as the primary desktop client of SPDRM.
Overview
Where Data Meets Its Stakeholders
KOMVOS is an innovative Simulation Data Management platform for the interactive browsing, visualisation, and handling of all data related to CAE analysis — from PDM extractions to simulation runs, key results, and reports.
A user-friendly, intuitive interface with a powerful integrated 3D viewer makes it possible to manipulate CAE models, retrieve metadata, generate model reports, and access model statistics — no prior knowledge of ANSA, META, or any other SDM system required.
What KOMVOS Does
An Operating Surface for CAE Data
Integrated 3D Viewer
Preview CAE models inside the console — no separate viewer to install, no round-trip to a heavy pre-processor.
Search & Browse
Powerful front end for data search and navigation — find models, results, and reports through one search bar.
Meta-Data & Statistics
Surface model meta-data, generate reports, and access statistics — context for the model without opening the solver.
Check-In / Check-Out
Standard SDM operations on tap — work safely with version-controlled data, no two-user edits clashing.
Send to External Apps
Forward data to external applications via integrated workflows — KOMVOS becomes the launch point for downstream tasks.
HPC Job Notifications
Notifications on completed HPC jobs in the same surface where you submitted them — closed-loop awareness.
Universal Front End
One Console, Any SDM Backend
KOMVOS is designed to be flexible — it serves as a powerful front end for data search, navigation, and collaboration, and integrates into all CAE environments. It performs equally well with every CAE data-management system: from the smaller-scale, file-based ANSA-DM to corporate solutions such as SPDRM or any other third-party SDM system.
Compatible SDM backends
- ANSA-DM (file-based, small-team)
- SPDRM (enterprise, multi-site)
- Third-party SDM systems
- Mixed environments — one front, many backs
Beyond Browsing
Data Processing, Not Just Data Viewing
KOMVOS spans beyond data browsing to data processing — initiate workflows online or export data packages for offline processing.
Online Workflow Execution
Initiate data-processing tasks online — integrate existing workflows with custom action calls right from the console.
Offline Data Packages
Export data packages for offline processing — ideal for preparing and delivering deliverables to external service suppliers.
Integrate Existing Workflows
Plug your established workflows into KOMVOS via custom action calls — gradual onboarding, no big-bang migration.
Who It's For
Designed for Every Stakeholder of CAE Data
CAE Analysts
Daily driver for model browsing, version control, simulation submission, and result review.
Model-Build Engineers
Check models in / out, browse pedigree, send to external apps without leaving the surface.
Managers & Stakeholders
No prior ANSA / META knowledge needed — 3D viewer + meta-data give instant project visibility.
External Suppliers
Offline data-package export streamlines delivery to and from external service suppliers.
