This article outlines a few of the important architectural considerations required for the proper operation of smart devices inside an IIoT infrastructure, with a focus on the device software. A promising new paradigm that tackles some of the fundamental device software gaps will be discussed, along with a few of the more typical device software difficulties.
Enabling Embedded Devices for Industrial Internet of Things (IIot)
Abstract
What you get from this white paper
The major goals on an Industrial IoT implementation are:
- End nodes and edge/gateway type embedded devices must be securely connected to a cloud backend.
- Data from these devices should be collected, visualized/analyzed, or presented in a useful way.
- Using a cloud-based architecture, provide a way for users to interface with, configure, maintain, and upgrade devices.
