With Zafiro, InfOil introduces an innovative and unique development platform focused on the end users and easily adjustable to each company’s business requirements in a very cost effective and efficient manner.
Specifically designed and developed for companies in the Energy Business, Zafiro is a flexible and easily configurable platform over which different applications, modules, updates and specific functionalities are being build, including Upstream Production management, planning, budgeting, forecasting, what-if-scenarios, score carding, dashboards and consolidations.
InfOil’s Zafiro goes beyond a Business Intelligence (BI) software, it is a platform that combines BI and Corporate Performance Management (CPM) in a single integrated solution.
Using InfOil’s Zafiro as the development platform allows for systems and applications to be developed in a very short time frame, specially compared to other solutions available in the market. InfOil delivers complete applications and systems using Zafiro as a platform.
Applications and solutions developed by InfOil and based on InfOil Zafiro platform allows users to create reports and dashboards, present and analyze data and process modeling, define formulas, and configure visual aspects using an intuitive graphical interface environment without the need to programming. Users can also configure the application to be used in different languages and measuring units, based on each operation’s needs.
Applications are developed using some or all of InfOil Zafiro’s functionalities which include query, reporting, monitoring, dashboards, analytics, collaboration, annotation, KPI monitoring, notifications, export/import to Excel, PDF and other corporate applications, data navigation, data distribution, ELT/data integration. It can be used to source your data from different systems, consolidate it (MOLAP/ROLAP) and rapidly build custom applications.
Some of the main features and functionalities pre build within Zafiro’s platform are:
- Graphical and interactive production networks definition and changes by production phase (oil, gas & water, injection, chemics, etc).
- Auditing capabilities - Keeps historical records of all changes performed to production networks allowing tracking them at any time.
- Production methods can be configurable by node.
- Robust and simple to use formula framework tool, allowing defining new functions and formulas at any time, extending in an unlimited manner system’s functional scope.
- Alarm system to track different system variables and notify users when a non desirable situation occurs.
- Mapping framework to multiple RDBMS (ORACLE SQL Server, etc.).
- Cache system using different strategies in order to maintain objects in memory and avoid unnecessary time consuming DB consults (FIFO, LRU, Empty).
- Graphical module with statistical analysis, forecast, historical events and declination analysis using different methods such as lineal, hyper, log and exponential.
- Workflow, approbations levels, audit functionalities with low granularity levels, LDAP integration.
- New Business Functions can be defined in runtime mode by prototyping development.
- Business validation rules can be defined by expert domain users at runtime.
