Retarus Cloud Services: Communication Solutions for the “Internet of Things”
The Challenge
Digitalization is finding its way into more and more factories and private households. Under the guise of keywords like “Industry 4.0” or “Internet of Things” (IoT) people are increasingly counting on “intelligent” machines and devices. To ensure that electronic communication is fit for this digital age, new and dependable messaging processes are required. Only in this way can the information gathered by smart components and sensors be shared, for instance with users, service partners, manufacturers or suppliers. The challenges range from sending automated notifications to processing highly complex delivery and work schedules.
The Background
To enable binding communication with widely differing end devices as well as with users and external partners, companies crucially need a reliable communication platform. This must be integrated into existing IoT systems as seamlessly as possible and attached to their own infrastructures without causing interference or disruption. Standardized interfaces and API
