As manufacturing systems keep developing, staying ahead means leveraging the latest—improved—versions. In 2025, DELMIA Apriso’s architecture has undergone a significant overhaul, aiming to further enhance performance, scalability, and security. This new release comes with major structural changes, making a well-planned upgrade strategy essential.
At Andea, we specialize in seamless MES upgrades, making sure that our clients experience minimal disruptions while moving to the latest DELMIA Apriso version. Our MES Application Maintenance experts—experienced in upgrading DELMIA Apriso from various outdated versions—are ready to guide you through the transition, ensuring a seamless and risk-free upgrade process.
We are often asked about the best timing for MES upgrades. The answer is more complex than simply advising you to upgrade upon a new release. It depends on several factors, including your MES provider, the specific software and version you’re using, and the other systems integrated with your MES.
For DELMIA Apriso, staying current with its release cycle is essential to maintaining a secure, high-performing, and fully supported MES. Dassault Systèmes regularly introduces new features, security updates, and system enhancements. While you can continue using previous versions, over time, you may encounter performance issues or system incompatibilities.
Older versions eventually reach end-of-support status, leaving your business vulnerable to risks such as:
Lack of security updates, exposing your system to cyber threats and compliance risks.
Limited vendor support, making troubleshooting more difficult for outdated systems and getting a bug fixing patch impossible.
Incompatibility with new technologies, leading to integration challenges with other enterprise systems.
Higher costs and risks for future upgrades because the longer you wait, the more complex and costly the upgrade process usually becomes.
To stay compliant and competitive, you should upgrade your MES solution at the latest according to DELMIA Apriso’s release cycle. Proactive upgrades ensure a smoother transition, lower risk, and access to the most recent system enhancements.
The 2025 release brings a number of innovations including the transformation of database architecture. Since these fundamental changes affect how DELMIA Apriso operates, a strategic approach to upgrades is not only recommended but required.
The latest version brings significant changes to the platform architecture, including:
A new database structure: Operational and solution authoring data have been separated, improving modularity, maintainability, and performance.
Process Builder enhancements: Operations and data flow controls (DFC) replace standard operations, requiring a structured migration process.
Improved upgrade management: The upgrade process can now be staged to minimize production downtime.
Security and performance improvements: Strengthened security protocols and high-availability options ensure a more resilient MES.
These changes offer long-term benefits but also require careful planning and execution for a successful transition.
The Start Simulation and Start Validation Workflow functions require modifications to align with the new system structure.
The new platform architecture complicates upgrading to DELMIA Apriso 2025, making the process more than a simple version change. The upgrade requires a well-defined strategy and application maintenance experience. Andea’s Application Maintenance Team has a proven track record of executing successful Apriso upgrades across multiple versions, including the move to DELMIA Apriso 2025. Our approach ensures:
