ABOUT TRAEGER Traeger Grills launched their innovative smart grills based on patented WiFIRE technology in early 2019. ese grills have been an amazing commercial success. is sudden market adoption of their connected grills coupled with a sunseing of their Xively IoT platform meant Traeger needed to find a partner who would get the job done right, and done fast, with no impact to their growing customer base. THE PROBLEM At the heart of the Traeger project is the IoT migration, the move to the AWS IoT Platform. OST’s proprietary IP, e IoT Foundation, was a key component in this migration. e IoT Foundation is a layer that sits on top of the AWS IoT Platform, allowing customers to create or migrate their connected products faster. In January 2020 OST migrated hundreds of thousands of grills to the new platform with no disruptions to the end user’s service. By the end of 2020, Traeger expects that number to quadruple. ese grills will be online – connected, sending messages and receiving command and control. With the AWS platform, this growth in capaci is available on demand, allowing Traeger to scale as needed. THE SOLUTION Using the IoT Foundation, an accelerator, Traeger was able to cut the schedule back six months and lower risk since it is built on stable components. e IoT Foundation is a thin 100 percent customizable layer. Traeger can continue to meet the demands of its large, steadily growing customer base. THE BENEFITS With our experience, as well as the IoT Foundation, Traeger can evolve their IoT platform for their ture product needs. SCALABILITY In addition to the migration, Traeger gained veloci from running their platform on AWS. ey are gaining securi and support because the pervasive securi model that goes throughout AWS is well-managed and configured. AWS offers scalabili and growth potential and the abili to take the information Trager gathers to the next level. Traeger uses that information to continue to improve the process for its customers.
