IIoT Requirements

Devices must communicate with each other and with local management systems regardless of protocol Devices must communicate with cloud based applications and with local and remote users Challenges • Multiple protocols are prevalent in the industry • Installed base of devices and assets cannot just be

replaced – need to deal with legacy • No single supplier can provide all required device types • Requires unique combination of hardware, protocol

knowledge, networking, security, cloud software, GUI design, and analytics to address requirements

Getting there with the IIoT On-Ramp Suite

Four Easy Steps

1. Get your device on IP network, connect to BMS/SCADA/PLC – add FieldServer Gateway

2. Add useful and visual applications on Gateway – add Local Applications on Application Engine

3. Bundle a cloud point-of-presence (“device cloud”) with Gateway – set up and connect to FieldPoP™

4. Connect that device cloud to your business applications – connect FieldPoP to Other Clouds
