Various embodiments described herein relate to management of a portfolio of assets. In this regard, a request to generate a dashboard visualization associated with a portfolio of assets received. The request includes an asset descriptor describing one or more assets in the portfolio of assets. Furthermore, in response to the request, aggregated data associated with the portfolio of assets is obtained based on the asset descriptor and metrics for an asset hierarchy associated with the portfolio of assets are determined based on a model related to a time series mapping of attributes for the aggregated data. The dashboard visualization comprising the metrics for an asset hierarchy associated with the portfolio of assets is also provided to an electronic interface of a computing device.
Embodiments of the present disclosure provide for asset lifetime monitoring. Estimated values for factors representing root causes of operational anomalies of an asset may be generated utilizing one or more models. Estimated remaining lifetime values for one or more root cause variables may be generated that indicate a time until the value for a root cause variable is estimated to reach a particular limit threshold corresponding to the root cause variable, and/or an estimated second remaining lifetime value for an asset health index representing a combination of one or more root cause variables. The second remaining lifetime value for the asset health index may be provided to enable processing of the second remaining lifetime value as the remaining useful lifetime of the asset based on overall root cause variables. The first remaining lifetime value for one or more individual root cause variables may be provided to enable more detailed insight into individual root causes of operational degradation of an asset.
