Bentley Infrastructure Cloud
Bentley's unified cloud platform powering SYNCHRO+, OpenSite+, and its full infrastructure engineering portfolio through iModel technology and federated digital twin management.
Definition
Bentley Infrastructure Cloud is the foundational cloud data platform underlying Bentley Systems' entire product portfolio. The platform uses iModel technology to create a federated digital twin of infrastructure assets, enabling different software tools across disciplines to share a consistent, synchronized view of project data without file exports or format conversions. A change in an OpenRoads design model immediately propagates to SYNCHRO+ 4D planning and Bentley Copilot intelligence, creating a single source of truth across the project lifecycle. Central to Bentley's Year in Infrastructure 2025 announcements, it provides the connective tissue for SYNCHRO+, OpenSite+, and Bentley Copilot to work as an integrated AI-powered ecosystem. iTwin technology supports spatial querying, change tracking, and versioning at the scale of large civil infrastructure programs.
Examples
Highway project design changes in OpenRoads automatically updating the construction schedule in SYNCHRO+
Querying all structural elements added in the last 30 days across a large rail program via iModel
Connecting Bentley Infrastructure Cloud to an owner's GIS system for integrated asset lifecycle tracking
