Software

Applications

Horizontal applications are standardized (e.g., asset tracking). Vertical applications are tailored to specific needs (e.g., delivery fleet management).

APIs

APIs are the market enabler for IoT. They allow users to manage devices, enable data transfer between software, and provide access capabilities.

Middleware

Middleware integrates the diverse components of an IoT application by structuring communication, workflows, and business rules.

Data Analytics

IoT analytics includes real-time or edge computing and batch analysis. Analytics can be behavioral, descriptive, predictive, or prescriptive.

Data Visualization

Visualization solutions use dashboards, alerts, events, maps, and other tools to present easily comprehensible data to end users.

Cloud & Fog Platforms

Data management solutions capture, index and store data in traditional database, cloud platforms, and fog systems for future use.

Security

Security software provides encryption, access control, and identity protection to IoT solutions from data collection through end-user applications.

Services

System Integration

System integrators link IoT component subsystems, customize solutions, and ensure that IoT systems communicate with existing operational systems.

IoT Data Management

IoT data management consultancies help to make sense of big data, decide which data to maintain and for how long, and troubleshoot IT issues.

Hardware Development

Software Development

IoT software consultancies support the development of data analytics, visualization solutions, and platforms, as well as integration into embedded systems.

	Wind River Helix Device Cloud Wind River® Helix™ Device Cloud is a device management platform for the Internet of Things (IoT) that helps organizations greatly reduce the complexities of building and operating large-scale device deployments.IoT can only be effective if connected devices are actively monitored and managed. To ensure that the devices enterprises depend on for crucial business data are secure, responsive, and performing at the highest possible level, device management should be part of an IoT strategy from the start. But building device management capabilities into a system from scratch can take time, resources, and money. Device Cloud is a ready-built platform that makes it possible.
	Wind River Linux 8 Wind River® Linux is the leader for building outstanding open source embedded products, ensuring customers work with the latest code from the most important open source efforts and most recent technologies.
	Wind River Helix App Cloud App Cloud is a cloud-based integrated development environment that offers a single location for streamlined management of software developer kits (SDKs), hardware targets, and users. Users can debug C, C++, and Node.js with access to remote device hardware targets.• Focus time and resources on creating applications rather than configuring complex device software.• Dynamically build and manage multiple SDKs on a variety of hardware platforms.• Securely access applications and device environments from anywhere.• Easily allow partners and other third parties to develop and modify applications.
