IoT the driver of Business Innovation: better products, new services and...Eurotech
The IoT is the manifestation that the raw material of the information age is data. Data is the new source of innovation and the lever to achieve business sustainability. By extracting data from assets and products, companies can become more efficient through a strategic rethinking of their value chains and business processes. In so doing, companies will add the required readiness to shift from products to services, and eventually enter in the outcome economy. To truly embrace the digital transformation, organizations need to collect actionable data from their assets, processes, and products and then connect the OT world where data are generated to IT world where data are consumed. To make this happen, a IoT integration platform, that gives to the App an easy and versatile access to the data, is required . As a matter of fact the IoT essence resides in an impressive simplification of the OT-IT integration through a loosely coupled containerized layered (LC2L) architecture. The benefits are huge: the transformation of any business into a smart business, increasing competitiveness also in mature markets; the creation of new innovative products and services; and the enablement of service prosumerization. Abundance of data is the real essence of IoT, where the App is the tip of the data iceberg.

OSGi & Java in Industrial IoT - More than a Solid Trend - Essential to Scale ...mfrancis
OSGi Community Event 2016 Keynote Presentation by Robert Andres (Eurotech) & Walter Hofmann (Hitachi High Technologies)
With the promise of “real” IoT, the requirements for computational capabilities and agility at the edge demand IT-centric architectures and solutions that are based on open and industry standards. “IoT stacks” that are built on OSGi and Java’s solid foundation ensure effective modular software development and management on abstracted hardware.
Total cost of ownership in these IoT solutions matters a lot more than the simple combined hardware and software cost per edge node. Sophisticated software elements – including business intelligence tools, databases, and analytics packages – leverage data remotely and centrally to achieve the best results for customers. A perfect example of an analytics solution using such an approach is the predictive maintenance solution that Hitachi offers, leveraging Eurotech’s IoT hardware and software building blocks that heavily rely on OSGi.

The industrial internet of things (IIoT) sometimes called Industry 4.0 – is radically changing how businesses, especially industrial companies, operate.
Let’s begin with a short IIoT definition:
The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) refers to the vast number of machines and devices – or ‘things’ – a business uses that are now connected to the Internet. Protecting this critical operational data, secure IIoT forms a closed, private Internet network where the devices can communicate and share data with other people, systems, and things. This data can be used to improve existing work practices and business processes as well as creating entirely new ways of doing things.

Building a reliable and scalable IoT platform with MongoDB and HiveMQDominik Obermaier
Today’s Internet of Things (IoT) is enabling companies to blend together the physical and digital worlds, creating new business models and generating insights that increase productivity at once unimaginable levels. However, managing the ever growing volume of heterogeneous IoT data from disparate devices, systems and applications both on premise and in the cloud can be a challenging endeavour without a scalable and reliable IoT platform.
In this webinar, we will explore why and how companies are leveraging HiveMQ and MongoDB to build exactly that: a scalable and reliable IoT platform. Based upon a sample fleet management scenario, we will explain how telematics data can be routed via MQTT and efficiently stored to provide analytics and insights into the data.
Key Learnings
- Common challenges and pitfalls of IoT projects
- Required components for effectively handling data with an IoT platform
- HiveMQ for MQTT to enable bi-directional device communication over unstable networks
- MongoDB as the flexible and scalable modern data platform combining data from different sources and powering your applications
- Why MongoDB and HiveMQ is such a great combination
The internet of things (io t) for issa v1.3Caston Thomas
The Internet of Things (IoT) is getting a lot of hype, some of it valid. The underlying issue for organizations is how do we prepare, from a security standpoint, for "Things" that we can't anticipate coming onto our networks. This presentation covers some of the ways that we can "prepare for the unpreparable".
As the Internet of Things is deployed across a wide range of industrial, consumer, and business environments, of special interest and concern is the need to implement IoT solutions with careful attention to security. While many of the challenges in IoT security are similar to the challenges of securing information technology (IT) computing environments, there are special considerations due to the scale, operating conditions, system capabilities, and wide range of device types which are used in IoT solutions. Further, these systems, by connecting the electronic and physical worlds, must address both operations technology (OT) security and information technology (IT) security.
In this session we will discuss the existing and emerging capabilities from IBM which we are both building into our IoT platform as well as the solutions built on top of that platform. Security features address the full spectrum of designing, building, deploying, and operating IoT solutions and are being built to enable a risk-based approach to applying these security capabilities. Both well-established and new technologies such as blockchain-based collaboration are part of these security capabilities. We consider device, network, application, and user security, with consideration for confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the systems and information. Considerations for safety and privacy also factor into the capabilities which IBM is building to secure IoT environments.

30. The Internet of Things
IIoT Implementations / Architectures 10 Key Aspects
• Agility (enabling real-time business decisions – real-time aggregated data for applications, historical
data, fast write speeds, CEP front end)
• Value-driven (preserving and extending value props – no “business normalization” but
encapsulating complexity, allowing to focus on core …)
• Openness (Open & Industry Standards based in technology, architecture, ecosystem and attitude,
IT-centric by design, no-vendor lock-in by proprietary in approach and technology)
• Flexibility (supporting diversity – down to the edge – HW, SW, type of applications, business
models)
• Versatility (“No-Silo-Approach” – readiness for current and future requirements – ESB for machines
concept – integration of field and IT applications without creating dependencies – different from “classic
telemetry”
• TCO-focused (including development, deployment, management, infrastructure, communication,
investment protection, future-proving, certifications)
• Security (complete approach in architecture and elements)
• Validation (continuous testing, validation, feedback and improvement ensured, strong ecosystem )
• Scalability (not just up but “out”, volume and diversity)
• Completeness (End-to-End complete OT stack, IT/OT integration, security, flexibility and efficiency
requires holistic approach, operating system for the IoT / IIoT)
31. The Internet of Things
• IT centric, open and standards based M2M /IIoT
connectivity platforms as building blocks for extending the
enterprise IT
• Implementation of “Enterprise Service Bus for Machines”
architectures to allow an easy integration of different
device data systems and applications
• Software-defined Gateway approach to integrate and
consolidate data streams and future proof investments
• IT centric application development to implement business
logic in smart edge devices / service gateways
• Off the shelf general purpose and purpose built devices
(and CPU Boards) designed to meet vertical market value
propositions

35. Opportunities and benefits
made possible by massive volumes of data from connected
products, and the increased ability to make automated decisions
and take actions in real time.
The key business opportunities will be found in four major areas:
• Vastly improved operational efficiency
• The emergence of an outcome economy
• New connected ecosystems
• Collaboration between humans and machines

36. Power of just one percent
• The benefits from this marriage of machines and analytics are
multiple and significant.
• We estimate that the technical innovations of the Industrial
Internet could find direct application in sectors accounting for
more than $32.3 trillion in economic activity.
• As the global economy grows, the potential application of the
Industrial Internet will expand as well.
• By 2025 it could be applicable to $82 trillion of output or
approximately one half of the global economy.

39. With the Industrial Internet,
using new software capabilities to improve operational efficiency
through predictive maintenance, and achieving
results such as :
-savings on scheduled repairs (12%),
-reduced maintenance costs (nearly 30%)
-fewer breakdowns (almost 70%)
manufacturers are already
45. Key research findings (WEF-ACCENTURE)
• Our research concludes that the Industrial Internet is indeed
transformative.
• It will change the basis of competition, redraw industry
boundaries and create a new wave of disruptive companies, just
as the current Internet has given rise to Amazon, Google and
Netflix.
• However, the vast majority of organizations are still struggling to
understand the implications of the Industrial Internet on their
businesses and industries.
• For these organizations, the risks of moving too slowly are real.
