IoT platforms for a range of applications.
The Internet of Things isn’t just about sensors, actors, gateways and the cloud, but also the right platforms. These are important for intelligently coordinating network devices and to present data in a user-friendly way. While sensors and actors generate data that are then forwarded via an edge gateway to the cloud or a server, platforms process them so they can be used for various applications making them indispensable for data visualisation, end device management and data storage. We have the perfect platform, for your use case, offer extensive advice and help you when it comes to integration and operations.

IoT platforms – Make or buy.
When it comes to IoT platforms, companies and organisations have two options.
-
Make – Customised.
- This option means that the customer develops their platform themselves or commissions a service provider to do so. This doesn’t mean that the platform has to be reprogrammed from the ground up. Instead, a provider’s existing services can be utilised to configure a perfect platform. An IoT hub allocates data and sensors and can, for example, identify which sensor is transmitting information. It also forwards the data stream to various databases and sources (storage), while evaluation and rendering are handled by visualisation solutions. dataformers GmbH, a Bechtle subsidiary, develops IoT platforms for our customers based on Microsoft Azure and also offers its specialist knowledge.
-
Buy – Quick and easy to implement.
- These days there are over 500 IoT platforms on the market for a range of use cases. All customers have to do is connect their sensors and they get a solution that visualises their data without having to worry about developing and programming. These turnkey solutions are able to collect data from all kinds of sensors before saving them and making them accessible. However, it’s easy to get lost among the plethora of options on the market, which is where Bechtle comes in, offering support when it comes to choosing a platform that suits your needs. We are an authorised reseller for several platform vendors meaning we can fulfil a whole range of requirements and install your IoT solutions in a snap.
