1. An apparatus operable in an industrial automation environment, the apparatus comprising: a memory that retains instructions that at least: alter profitability data representing a profitability of a production facility based on an alteration of cost data representing a variable cost associated with financial information and product schedules, wherein the cost data is based on a likelihood measure expressed as a probability of a potential economic gain and an optimization, based on an interdependency between a group of elements comprising an energy usage of the production facility, an energy cost incurred by the production facility, a revenue generated by the production facility, a product throughput of the production facility, a machine life cycle cost, and a machine longevity; andbased on an alteration of the profitability data, project a visual instrumentation associated with a predictive visualization onto a display configured to accept a tactile user input, wherein industrial equipment associated with the production facility is adjusted to alter the profitability data based on tactile manipulation of the predictive visualization through a tactile interaction with the display; anda processor, coupled to the memory, configured to facilitate execution of the instructions retained in the memory. 2. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the visual instrumentation associated with the predictive visualization provides a multi-dimensional manipulable view of at least one of a current capacity of the production facility or a future capacity of the production facility. 3. The apparatus of claim 1, the altering further comprising analyzing at least one of the financial information or the product schedules associated with a corporate entity to mitigate a negative factor associated with the financial information and the product schedules or enhance a positive factor associated with the financial information and the product schedules. 4. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the predictive visualization facilitates failure analysis and dynamic rectification of identified failures. 5. The apparatus of claim 1, the altering further comprising inferring an event based at least in part on real-time input and historical data received from a non-human knowledge source. 6. The apparatus of claim 1, the altering further comprising generating an event classification utilized to minimize cascading events, and based at least in part on the event classification, identifying a root cause for an occurrence of an event included in the event classifications. 7. The apparatus of claim 6, the generating the event classification further comprising creating a hierarchical event tree. 8. The apparatus of claim 7, the optimizing further comprising pruning the hierarchical event tree to identify the root cause of the cascading events. 9. A method employed in an industrial automation environment, comprising: adjusting, by a system that includes a processor, profitability data representing a production facility based at least in part on cost data representing variable costs associated with financial information and product schedules, wherein the adjusting includes identifying brittle operating strategies that are consequent on possible future unmodeled events, and wherein the brittle operating strategies are selected as a function of an optimization of an interdependency between an energy usage of the production facility, an energy cost incurred by the production facility, a revenue generated by the production facility, a product throughput of the production facility, a machine life cycle cost, and a machine longevity; andbased at least in part on the adjusting, projecting, by the system, a visual instrumentation associated with a predictive visualization including changing an operation of a motorized pump system included in the production facility as a function of receiving a tactile input relating to the predictive visualization received through a display configured to accept a direct tactile user input. 10. The method of claim 9, wherein the visual instrumentation associated with the predictive visualization provides a multi-dimensional manipulable view of at least one of a current capacity of the production facility or a future capacity of the production facility. 11. The method of claim 9, the adjusting further comprising analyzing at least one of the financial information and the product schedules associated with a corporate entity to mitigate negative factors associated with the financial information and the product schedules or enhance positive factors associated with the financial information and the product schedules. 12. The method of claim 9, wherein the predictive visualization facilitates failure analysis and dynamic rectification of identified failures. 13. The method of claim 9, the adjusting further comprising automatically inferring an event based at least in part on real-time input and historical data received from a non-human knowledge source. 14. The method of claim 9, the adjusting further comprising generating event classifications utilized to minimize cascading events, and based at least in part on the event classifications undertaking root cause analysis to identify a root cause for an occurrence of an event included in the event classifications. 15. The method of claim 14, the generating event classifications further comprising creating a hierarchical event tree. 16. The method of claim 15, the adjusting further comprising pruning the hierarchical event tree to identify the root cause of the cascading events. 17. A system operable in an industrial automation environment, comprising: a memory that stores computer-executable instructions; anda processor, communicatively coupled to the memory, configured to facilitate execution of the computer-executable instructions to at least: modify profitability data representing a production facility based at least in part on cost data representing variable costs associated with financial information and product schedules, wherein the profitability data is modified based on a stochastic model that assesses a probability of achieving an economic return that satisfies input constraints employed in developing the model and a correlation between a group of elements comprising an energy usage of the production facility, an energy cost incurred by the production facility, a revenue generated by the production facility, a product throughput by the production facility, a machine life cycle cost, and a machine longevity; andbased at least in part on the profitability data, project a visual instrumentation associated with a predictive visualization, wherein industrial equipment associated with the production facility is controlled based on tactile input received by the visual instrumentation through a display configured to receive a tactile user input. 18. The system of claim 17, wherein the visual instrumentation associated with the predictive visualization provides a multi-dimensional manipulable view of at least one of a current capacity of the production facility and a future capacity of the production facility. 19. The system of claim 17, wherein the processor is further configured to facilitate the execution of the computer-executable instructions to analyze at least one of the financial information and the product schedules associated with a corporate entity to mitigate negative factors associated with the financial information and the product schedules or enhance positive factors associated with the financial information and the product schedules. 20. The system of claim 17, the modifying further comprising inferring an event based at least in part on real-time input and historical data received from a non-human knowledge source.
