Bsquare has introduced a suite of cross-platform Internet of Things (IoT) apps as part of its DataV Hybrid IoT platform (HIP).
DataV already supports a rich array of use cases focused on business and industrial markets; with DataV cross-platform IoT apps, time-to-value is dramatically reduced and deployment flexibility is enhanced. With the advent of IoT platform services from major Cloud suppliers such as Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Microsoft, businesses deploying IoT systems are looking for applications compatible with their preferred Cloud provider that allow them to quickly address targeted business objectives. DataV cross-platform apps, said the company, address this challenge by being deployable on multiple Cloud IoT platforms.
Bsquare’s cross-platform IoT apps are enabled through the DataV Hybrid IoT Platform (HIP). Modularly architected, DataV HIP provides all required platform functions needed for deployment in private data centers or any public Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) cloud offering. Uniquely, DataV HIP is also available in versions tuned for AWS and Microsoft Azure deployments, taking full advantage of IoT platform functions available from those leading cloud suppliers.
According to Dave McCarthy, Bsquare Senior Director of Products, “We hear two consistent themes from our customers: first, deploying IoT should not be a software development project, vendors should offer finished solutions not development kits; and second, they have invariably made a strategic cloud decision, IoT solutions should be fully compatible with their preferred cloud provider. DataV is unique in meeting both of these objectives.”
