Intelligent spatial enterprise analytics

A method for distributed analysis of time-series data in a smart entity environment, the method comprising:

• receiving, from a data source in the smart entity environment, the time-series data, wherein the data source is a sensor associated with a component of the smart entity environment;
• distributing, in the smart entity environment, an overall analysis of the data to a first analytics node, wherein in a network operating the smart entity environment the first analytics node is at a smaller distance from the data source of the time-series data as compared to a distance between the data source and a second analytics node;
• performing on the time series data, at the first analytics node, a first portion of the overall analysis to produce a first conclusion, wherein the first conclusion is a temperature associated with the component;
• routing the first conclusion to the second analytics node, wherein the second analytics node performs a second portion of the overall analysis;
• causing, using the first conclusion, from the first analytics node, a first action to occur on the component of the smart entity environment, wherein the data source is associated with the component, wherein the time-series data is indicative of a condition in the smart entity environment, wherein the component participates in the condition, and wherein the first action includes activating a cooling mechanism of the component;
• routing, in addition to the first conclusion, the time series-data to the second analytics node;
• performing, by the second analytics node using a derivative function, the second portion of the overall analysis to produce a second conclusion using the first conclusion and the time-series data as inputs, wherein the second conclusion includes a rate of change of the temperature associated with the component;
• causing, using the second conclusion, from the second analytics node, a second action to occur in the smart entity environment, wherein the second action is responsive to the condition in the smart entity environment, wherein the second action includes sending a command to shutdown the component;
• and
• performing, using a pattern matching analytics function, a third portion of the overall analysis to produce a third conclusion using the second conclusion, wherein the third conclusion includes a statistical probability of failure over a period of time associated with the component.
