Full Story:
Dell Technologies announces new Internet of Things (IoT)
products and partnerships to help customers take the complexity out
of their IoT deployments and more quickly realize Digital
Transformation.
According to a recent Gartner report, there will be 20.4
billion connected things in use globally by 2020. Companies
are looking for faster, real-time analysis of the massive amount of
data produced by all of these "things" on their networks. For some,
it's too expensive to move all the data from the edge of the
network near the devices to the data center. Computing at the edge
helps determine which data sets are interesting, relevant and need
to be sent back to the data center or the cloud for further
analytics and longer term storage, saving bandwidth and reducing
costs and security concerns.
New IoT Products and Services
Simplified "Things" Management – The new VMware Pulse
IoT Center is a secure IoT infrastructure management solution that
will enable customers to have complete control of their connected
things. VMware Pulse IoT Center will help customers to more
efficiently manage, operate, scale and protect their IoT projects
from the edge to the cloud. Dell will be offering VMware Pulse
IoT Center as the preferred enterprise management and monitoring
solution for Dell Edge Gateways. By plugging Pulse IoT Center into
the new EdgeX Foundry, VMware will be able to offer system and
device management for the EdgeX ecosystem.
IoT Advisory Services – IoT Technology Advisory
Service is a new consulting offer from Dell EMC Services to
help organizations determine the key capabilities and architecture
required to leverage IoT data (e.g., sensors, beacons, gateways,
mobile phones, wearables, connected devices). This information can
be used for initiatives such as optimizing key operational
processes, reducing compliance and security risks, uncovering new
revenue opportunities and creating more compelling customer
engagements.
Open Source Framework for Interoperable Edge Computing – The
Linux Foundation recently launched EdgeX Foundry, an open source
software project chartered to build a common framework and
surrounding reference platform for edge computing. It will drive
interoperability between proprietary value-added applications and
existing connectivity standards. It was started by a community of
more than 50 companies such as AMD, Analog Devices, Dell EMC,
Foghorn and VMware to enable an ecosystem of plug-and-play
components that can be combined to quickly create secure and
scalable IoT solutions. Dell contributed more than a dozen
microservices and over 125,000 lines of source code under Apache
2.0 to seed the project, additional contributions are already
underway from other members. EdgeX Foundry is architected to
operate on any hardware, on any operating system and with
microservices developed in any application environment for maximum
scale.
Carefully Curated Partnerships
Dell has carefully curated a group of IoT software and services
partners through the Dell IoT Solutions Partner and Dell EMC
Partner Programs. Many partners have deep, proven expertise in
industry-specific IoT challenges, and can help with everything from
managing multiprotocol data sources to security to analytics. New
partners recently added to the program include Analog Devices,
Atos, Bosch, ForgeRock, IOTech, Mocana and Modius.
Today's key IoT partner news includes:
- Dell and Bosch have jointly developed an Industry 4.0 jump
start kit to help customers implement IoT projects quickly to
realize faster ROI. The kit consists of multiple Bosch XDK sensors,
a Dell Edge Gateway, ready-to-go use-cases, cloud integration and
software, all preconfigured.
- Atos and Dell EMC are working together to build an IoT service
management framework, Atos Codex IoT Services, to allow customers
to be assured that all users can continuously create value from
their connected devices.
- Atom AMPD, an enterprise-level communications solution
provider, will also bundle their software with Dell Edge Gateways
and Embedded Box PCs.
