Technical training and research on enterprise AEC automation

We document how real automation systems are designed and built for complex AEC environments, including Autodesk platforms and open BIM workflows.

Dataforge Academy is a technical learning initiative focused on enterprise automation in AEC environments.

The goal is not to teach isolated tools or generic programming concepts, but to document how real-world automation systems are designed, implemented and maintained inside companies.

Most content is based on internal engineering projects, real operational workflows and long-term technical research.

This is not a traditional online academy.
It is a technical knowledge base built from real engineering work.

What you will find here

Real automation workflows

We publish detailed technical articles explaining how enterprise automation systems are designed, from high-level architecture to implementation details.

These workflows typically involve:

  • AEC platforms (Autodesk systems, open BIM tools)
  • Backend services and automation pipelines
  • System integration and interoperability
  • Cloud-based processing and visualization

The focus is always on complete systems, not isolated scripts.

Technical deep dives

Beyond full systems, we explore specific technical topics such as:

  • Data structures and logic for automation
  • API design and integration patterns
  • Backend architectures for automation tools
  • Performance, scalability and maintainability

The objective is to explain why certain technical decisions are made, not just how to implement them.

Engineering perspectives

We also share technical opinions and reflections about automation in AEC environments:

  • What works and what fails in real companies
  • Why many automation initiatives collapse
  • How to design systems that scale beyond prototypes
  • Common mistakes in enterprise automation projects

This is not marketing content.
It is engineering analysis.

Who this is for

Dataforge Academy is aimed at:

  • Engineers and technical BIM specialists
  • Developers working with AEC and BIM platforms
  • Technical teams building internal automation tools
  • Companies exploring automation and interoperability strategies

This is not beginner-level training.
Most content assumes basic technical background.

Relationship with Dataforge

Dataforge Academy documents the technical research and engineering processes behind the automation tools developed at Dataforge.

While the Academy focuses on knowledge and learning, Dataforge Nexus focuses on building and delivering enterprise automation products.
