ThingWorx is an only enterprise-ready technology platform that enables innovators to develop and deploy smart, connected solutions for the Internet of Things. It contains a complete set of integrated loT-specific development tools and capabilities making solution development simple, time-to-market fast and solutions built on the platform more compelling.
• Connect things using ThingWorx connectivity or industrial connectivity from Kepware.
• ThingWorx analytics automates complex analytical processes for loT data such as real-time anomaly detection at the edge, predictive analytics and simulations.
• Create robust development tools enable the both skilled and novice loT developers to quickly create solutions.
• Use augmented reality from Vuforia to create experiences that help end users better create service and operate their things.
• Collaborate with loT developers around the world through the ThingWorx DevZone marketplace and the annual loT Conference, LiveWorx.
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.
