- Integrators
- Large organizations who would like to structure sub brand, countries or branches in separate tenants with the option to combine specific information
Details:
- Included in Cloud of Things Enterprise and in Cloud of Things Private
- Easy to share selected information between one tenant and other tenants
- You can share devices (and more generically, managed objects), events, alarms, measurements, operations
Technical data:
- Data Broker enables the tenant to access data of subtenants
- Devices used in subtenants can be replicated
- Approval to do so has to be given by the subtenant administrator
Available for:
- Cloud of Things Smart
- Cloud of Things Enterprise
- Cloud of Things Private
Mobile Network and WLAN Localization
Determine the geographical position of your IoT devices when no GPS is available/allowed, using cellular network or WLAN information
Target groups:
- Customers who want to track devices and machinery that are not equipped with GPS
- Low-cost and very energy efficient battery-powered tracking devices that are not equipped with GPS
Details:
- Determine the geographic location of devices
- No GPS needed, hence very energy and cost efficient devices possible
Technical data:
- Devices need cellular modem or WLAN
- The signal strength of mobile phone base stations or WLAN access points is used to determine the position of the devices
- Triangulation is used for higher accuracy of site determination using the signal strength of at least three base stations or WLAN access points
Available for:
- Cloud of Things Smart
- Cloud of Things Enterprise
Remote Control
Control and configure managed devices securely, easy and fast from within the Cloud of Things portal remotely from anywhere
Target groups:
- Users who want to have remote access to their equipment
- IT technicians, dispersed teams who need to manage remote systems
Details:
- From within the Cloud of Things user interface, administrators can access the graphical user interface of remote devices (machines)
- VNC protocol
Technical data:
- VNC protocol
- Prerequisite is the installation of a VNC server on the device to be controlled
Available for:
- Cloud of Things Smart
- Cloud of Things Enterprise
Microservice Runtime
Extend Cloud of Things functionality with your own microservices running in Docker containers on a Kubernetes cluster
Target groups:
- Developers at system integrators and solution providers wishing to extend Cloud of Things functionality with their own microservices
- Developers with very specific needs, writing own microservices to extend Cloud of Things
Details:
- Includes resource package of 2 cores, 4 GB memory (Smart and Enterprise), 1 core (Local Cloud Extension)
- Extension packages of 2 cores, 4 GB memory available (Smart and Enterprise), 1 core (Local Cloud Extension)
- Prerequisite: Privacy and Security Approval (PSA) by T-Sec
Technical data:
- Single or Multi Mode: Single instance for all subtenants or each tenant uses a separate copy (optimizing cost vs. performance)
- Individual resource assignment possible (CPU, memory)
- Resource packages sharable between microservices
Available for:
- Cloud of Things Smart
- Cloud of Things Enterprise
Advanced Rules
Get the most out of your data with Advanced Rules (powered by Apama) by using unlimited custom graphical Analytics Builder blocks, and by coding own rules in Event Processing Language (EPL)
