Descriptions:
The AEC industry has quietly accepted a difficult bargain: hand BIM data to cloud platforms, then pay to store it, move it, access it, process it, and wait on rate-limited APIs when it is needed at scale. This model only works when the underlying systems are optimized for bulk access, analytics, automation, and AI. Too often, they are not. This talk explores the hidden costs of vendor-controlled BIM data access and presents a practical alternative: customer-controlled data infrastructure built on open schemas, efficient columnar storage, and fast query engines. We will show how BIM Open Schema and BIM Lakehouse can make building data faster to access, easier to integrate, cheaper to operate, and more useful across applications, portfolios, and AI workflows.
