Cumulocity, and its Strategic Partner Deutsche Telekom, Simplify Industry 4.0 Deployments with its Unique Cloud Field Bus Solution
DÜSSELDORF, Germany–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Cumulocity’s Cloud Field Bus solution fundamentally simplifies the real-world concerns of customers connecting their “machines” in an easy and productive way. There is neither a lengthy integration process nor special training required to connect “machines”.
Cumulocity’s unique Cloud Field Bus solution allows users to connect their machines in minutes. With Cloud Field Bus the machine securely registers itself to the Cumulocity platform at power up over any communication connection and allows the Cumulocity platform to assign a predefined data model and protocol configuration.
This means that Industrial IoT deployment and operations costs are dramatically reduced through the use of much cheaper IoT modems, commodity communications and increased automation in the deployment process; at the same time the security protection is increasing to A+ carrier grade. It also drastically improves the efficiency of the operations and maintenance of IoT deployments as it allows the field service teams to replace a faulty IoT modem with virtually any other modem they have in their van.
Deutsche Telekom launched the ‘Cloud of Things’, powered by Cumulocity, in spring 2015 and recently launched the Cloud Field Bus with Modbus TCP support.
Cloud Field Bus modems are already available from a range of manufacturers and Cumulocity’s open approach allows virtually any compatible IoT device to be used as a Field Bus modem.
