IoT Solutions | | Today, more data is generated by machines than by people. As the number of connected user devices has increased radically, the need for connectivity to a multitude of services brings forth endless opportunities for all industries. Whatever can be connected, will be connected and our open source Industrial Internet platform can be the enabler you need in order to renew your business and to sense, think, and act digitally.
Tieto I&I Connect takes care of the data and manages it for customers. It’s Tieto’s Industrial Internet gateway with Tieto’s software running on it. It controls remote devices, analyses the information received, and enables services that are embedded in a device. | There is the potential for 50 billion connected devices by 2020. Google Cloud Platform gives you the tools to scale connections, gather and make sense of data, and provide the reliable customer experiences that hardware devices require. With the potential for so many devices, companies need a network infrastructure that can sustain potentially millions of concurrent connections across a global user base. Google's Backbone Network has thousands of miles of fiber optic cables, uses advanced software-defined networking and has edge caching services to deliver fast, consistent and scalable performance. Many small devices are still capable of producing very large volumes of data. It is only through the insight of sufficiently powerful data analysis tools that these trickles of device data are turned into floods of valuable information. Google Cloud Platform is building a state-of-the-art suite of big data tools. | With the growing use of cloud infrastructure services and the advent of fabric-based computing, security professionals will find it increasingly difficult to segregate network traffic using traditional firewall technology. As computing platforms proliferate, data that had previously been split up and partitioned among physical infrastructure will converge in the cloud, making it more difficult for security professionals to isolate and protect their most critical data and systems. Encrypted communities of interest can help address this problem.
Unisys work with many of the world's largest companies and government organizations to secure and keep their mission-critical operations running at peak performance; streamline and transform their data centers; enhance support to their end users and constituents; and modernize their enterprise applications. They do this while protecting and building on their legacy IT investments. Unisys's offerings include outsourcing and managed services, systems integration and consulting services, high-end server technology, cybersecurity and cloud management software, and maintenance and support services. | | Actemium operates from the consultancy and engineering phases through to realization, commissioning and maintenance. The network offers relevant and dedicated proposals, with a long term partnership perspective. As a key player in the transformation towards the Factory of the Future, Actemium builds on its agile network of experts to accompany customers into the new industrial era: - Smart Process - Smart Energy - Smart Maintenance Actemium provides its expertise throughout the lifecycle of industrial sites from design and engineering to execution work and maintenance. They provide acknowledged, professional projects and contract management to guarantee successful projects. They put our expertise into practise to improve our clients’ performance and competitiveness in four main areas: - Process control & automation - Electrical & instrumentation - Mechanical & piping - Process utilities | The Internet of Things (IoT) is rapidly taking shape. Billions of smart devices, from cars and trucks to Containers and hospital beds, will create and share data. Data permission security becomes a major concern for enterprises.
The BlackBerry IoT Platform can provide the clients that control, providing a cloud-based solution that lets clients build and manage IoT applications and devices in a secure, efficient, and scalable way.
The BlackBerry IoT Platform provides a modular architecture to rapidly add BlackBerry and third-party services into your IoT applications and, once built, a backbone for these apps and devices to communicate privately. | The Internet of Things (IoT) is about dissolving the layers of complexity and the intermediaries that create distance between the point of manufacturing and the point of consumption, between understanding and preventing points of failure in the manufacturing process, in machines or in critical processes, and between what the customer wants and what is delivered.
Infosys' inter-disciplinary skills and domain knowledge in engineering and IT enable them to drive efficiency, accelerate concept-to-market, and derive business insights from data in the IoT space. Their solutions span platforms, consulting services, system integration offerings, embedded and hardware solutions, and requirements definition. | In this connected world, the proliferation of Intelligent Devices has created a market for entirely new solutions based on Internet of Things (IoT) technology. With the ever-increasing amount of data that is inherent in an IoT world, the key to gaining real business value is effective communication among all elements of the architecture. Oracle’s IoT platform delivers an integrated, secure, comprehensive platform for the entire IoT architecture across all vertical markets. Its IoT solution allows companies to gain new data-driven insights and drive actions from IoT data, enabling their businesses to deliver innovative new services faster than their competitors, with less risk. |
