Industrial connectivity
The Industrial Internet of Things leverages existing technologies in industrial settings – including machine-to-machine communication and automation technologies – and incorporates newer big data and machine learning technologies to enable smart, connected machines.
Meet Kepware
ThingWorx delivers industrial connectivity via Kepware’s industry-leading communications platform, a most complete solution for device-to-cloud interoperability. KEPServerEX provides a single source of industrial automation data to multiple applications, allowing users to connect, manage, monitor and control diverse automation devices and software applications through one intuitive user interface.
Kepware enables interoperability with the ThingWorx platform via a ThingWorx agent in the loT Gateway for KEPServerEX. The agent enables users to move the industrial data on the edge into ThingWorx, providing a seamless user experience between the technologies.
