This case study details the 2018 implementation of ICONICS GENESIS64 at the Austria Center Vienna, a 22,000 sqm congress facility. The project integrated HVAC, lighting, blinds, heating, ventilation, and 100 energy meters via BACnet and M-Bus. Two redundant servers process 7,000 active data points with five client workstations in a virtual environment. The deployment enabled unified monitoring, energy analysis, and future expansion without major hardware upgrades.
