Edge computing can process raw data in near-real time, apply analytics, support local applications and pre-filter cloud-bound data to save costs. Edge can provide this and more with deployment options from small-footprint embedded gateways to plant-floor appliances to high-end server configurations.

Connect assets and data sources

Edge connects to industrial assets to collect data and send control signals. It  supports a wide variety of standard and proprietary protocols to unlock access to almost any industrial data source. Data can be filtered, processed by edge-based apps and analytics, then reliably forwarded to the cloud for further processing.

Powerful apps and analytics
