LoopEdge simplifies the complexity of creating IIoT solutions, according to Litmus, providing connectivity through almost any industrial legacy protocol, management of many gateways at once, and access to a marketplace of applications that can be used on the data being aggregated within the gateway.
“Companies are facing many challenges with implementing IIoT solutions from solving problems at the edge when working in legacy environments to accessing data in the cloud,” said Olivier Frank, worldwide senior sales director and alliances IoT, HPE. “Now, with HPE Edgeline Gateways combined with LoopEdge, they have access to an incredible combination of hardware and software making it easier to get started with IoT, collecting and analyzing valuable data at the edge.”
“LoopEdge running on HPE Edgeline IoT Gatways provides an industrial-grade, networked solution to deliver secure connectivity for great insight using data at the edge,” said Vatsal Shah, CEO/co-founder of Litmus Automation. “We are pleased to partner with HPE at this stage and are excited about combining the power of their intelligent gateways with our software so industrial companies can quickly access and use the data in their field and factory environments to drive better business operations.”
Companies can now collect data into an HPE Edgeline IoT Gateway from any third-party legacy device or industrial system with a codeless drag-and-drop interface provided by LoopEdge, said Litmus. Once data is collected, processed and filtered, LoopEdge provides secure connectivity to the Loop platform. This solution allows device management down to the edge, as well as data-normalization before it is seamlessly integrated to various enterprise systems for analysis, visualization and increased ROI. HPE offers several levels of hardware which dictate the complexity of the analytics that can be performed at the edge.
