Flow Data Reliably from Connected Edge Devices
Internet of Things
Situation
IoT is revolutionizing numerous industries, using data generated by heavy machinery, connected cars, industrial controls and smartphones. The Internet of Things (IoT) offers a treasure trove of insights – but only if you can get the data to the point of analysis.
Challenge
The diversity of devices create a number of dataflow challenges. IoT standards are still emerging, meaning frequent changes to pipeline designs. Many IoT devices are resource constrained, meaning solutions for them must have a small footprint. Lastly, IoT and edge analytics go hand in hand, so a data movement solution must trigger local jobs and offer 2-way communication.
Our Solution
Data Collector Edge lets you build and operate continuous ingestion pipelines for IoT endpoints. It deploys in > 5 MB, has wide protocol support, 2-way communications and can trigger edge analytics within dataflow pipelines.
