3. CSL Behring’s Products and Focus
• CSL Behring
– CSL Behring is a global biotherapeutics leader
– Focused on serving patients’ needs by using the latest
technologies
• Deliver innovative therapies that are used to treat rare
and serious conditions.
– One of our “super orphan” therapies treats a condition affecting

7. Future Manufacturing Data Flows
13/06/20177

8. Challenges
• Each Manufacturing system uses a different backend
databases and schema to log the batch execution steps
– 12 x SCADA and MES systems
• Edge servers must not impact MES system performance
– Sensitive systems required impact assessment prior to direct
data extracts
• Data must be encrypted in motion and at rest
– HIPAA compliance and EU privacy requirements
• Data must be compressed over the WAN
– Due to bandwidth constrictions on intranet
• Multiple time zones and string encodings

9. NiFi
• Allows the creation of custom processors for each MES
system (python).
• Uses back pressure to eliminate any full database pulls
after network/hardware outages.
• Encrypts data over the wire.
• Compresses data over the wire
• Allows data enrichment for the addition of UTC column.
• ETL functionality allows for special characters to be
transformed into data analytical tools can process ex. ṏ
