Innovation spurs collaboration to aggregate and optimize IoT data for
new over-the-top services and cloud-centered solutions
BARCELONA, Spain--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
ADTRAN,
Inc., (NASDAQ:ADTN), the leading provider of next-generation open
networking and subscriber experience solutions, today announced its
collaboration with IoT.nxt—a leading internet of things (IoT) technology
company—to help carriers and enterprises around the world design new
services and solutions by bringing together various streams of IoT
device data into a single, easy-to-use platform.
“This exciting collaboration allows us to create cloud-based innovations
that will bring a host of new revenue opportunities and operational
savings to our customers around the world,” ADTRAN Sr. Vice President of
Sales John Neville said. “ADTRAN and IoT.nxt are joining forces to
create the energy and synergy needed to capture and commercialize the
growing volume of IoT data generated in any number of vertical markets
across diverse systems and processes. We can’t wait to see where this
takes our customers here in Europe and throughout the world.”
The IoT industry operates on multiple protocols that control many
different types of devices. IoT.nxt aggregates those protocols into a
single cloud-based system that turns the data into usable information
for decision-makers looking to optimize revenue opportunities and
minimize operating expense. ADTRAN’s broad portfolio of software and
hardware platforms support a variety of technologies deployed today and
provide speed and flexibility for new deployments needed to take
advantage of these new IoT.nxt applications.
Based on OpenWrt, the ADTRAN SmartOS Operating System is fully
chipset-agnostic, enabling quick and seamless support for any technology
or vendor hardware implementation, while also supporting third-party
software applications to enhance solution integrations. SmartOS operates
on top of five different, leading hardware vendor chipsets and numerous
network technologies. With its open data plane and application
framework, SmartOS unlocks the potential for streamlined application
development and integration of exciting new services.
Additionally, the ADTRAN ProCloud suite of subscription-based business
services enables enterprises to create improved workflows, based on data
collected, and present these in a usable format that can manage devices
locally or from the cloud. Combining SmartOS, ProCloud CPaaS and
IoT.nxt’s leading application, ADTRAN now offers a compelling solution
with immediate effect and spanning a virtually unlimited number of both
industrial and residential IoT use cases.
ADTRAN will now be able to provide enterprise and carrier customers with
smart, streamlined management of IoT data that will help drive better,
more informed business decisions. Carriers will also be able to better
manage their physical and virtualized networks, as well as offer
enhanced home and business services on one platform that manages all
devices for a subscriber.
IoT.nxt solutions have been deployed at a variety of companies in
diverse industries. A recent U.S. example is a project rolled out across
schools in Tampa, Fla. IoT.nxt technology retrofits onto existing
systems and equipment. That, combined with new sensor data or instance
occupancy and ambient external temperature, delivers dynamic energy
management while increasing comfort levels and purifying the air.
Consumption is optimized, which delivers significant cost savings.
IoT.nxt also has large projects running in telecommunication companies,
mines, ports, food processing manufacturing plants and in the
agricultural sector.
The IoT.nxt solution is technology agnostic, which allows companies to
leverage existing infrastructure and create immediate impact on business
processes.
