Bridging the Gap Between Business and IT: Visualization Architecture in the Digital Oilfield
In our latest Tech Talk, E&P Visualization in the Cloud, we featured IVAAP, our cloud-enabled visualization and analytics development platform. We showed how it can be used to monitor and analyze well data as a critical part of your digital transformation. Thierry Danard, our VP of Core Platform Technologies, presented some of the technical aspects of IVAAP, so we asked him a few questions after the talk to dig a bit deeper.

We took this feedback to heart and implemented autocompletion in INTViewer 5.2.
