GRANTA MI:Server
Enterprise features
MI:Server is the only materials database system that provides all of the following enterprise materials data management features:
Meta-data—enables capture of the relationships and context for items of data.
Traceability—records and links to the pedigree for materials information; retains links as data changes; provides 'smart' features to enable automatic linking of related objects.
Access control—restricts access to specific data to particular users, or groups of users. This may be required for reasons of security, commercial confidentiality, or usability (e.g., making sure that users only see the data that they need). GRANTA MI allows you control access either using a simple hierarchy, or based on user categories and permissions.
Version control—ensures control and recording of changing information.
Data quality ratings—ensures data is used for appropriate applications.
Integration with other software—read more on MI:Materials Gateway for accessing materials data within CAD, CAE, and PLM software, and MI:API for integrating your own applications into GRANTA MI. This integration has been enhanced in GRANTA MI Version 5.
