Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT)

Industrial IoT (IIoT) is transforming production processes, enhancing service-related industrial operations and improving aftermarket customer service activities. Combining highly connected, sensor-enabled equipment and advanced analytics to determine asset performance and utilization, IIoT ensures efficient operations across the industrial ecosystem. IIoT connects industrial equipment, production equipment or other serviceable assets to transform operations and ensure companies become more competitive. The OpenText™ IoT Platform allows companies to seamlessly combine industrial operations and processes with the lifecycle management of industrial equipment.

The OpenText IoT Platform provides an identity-centric approach to managing day to day operations of industrial assets and connected things. The platform provides key capabilities to remotely monitor equipment, create secure interactions and integrations to back office systems and optimize business operations.

The OpenText IoT Platform allows industrial companies to build complete digital twins, or representations of any piece of equipment or serviceable asset, to support downstream processes, including:

• Asset monitoring: Monitors industrial asset location, condition, utilization, performance or health—the necessary foundation for process improvement and asset utilization optimization.
• Predictive maintenance: Leverages sensor data to determine the realtime performance of industrial equipment and, based on historical sensor information, the likelihood of equipment failure.
• Data-driven services: Uses data generated by connected industrial assets to offer new, value added services to customers. Transforms the operation of downstream business systems and improves customer engagement, using lifecycle data obtained from industrial assets.

Leverages identity management to establish digital twins of physical objects, making it easier to visualize contextual data no matter where the physical device is located. Provisions and de-provisions secure IoT endpoints and data access to minimize cyber security threats.

Provides any-to-any communications protocol support via a comprehensive messaging broker. Allows companies to perform rapid, secure and flexible integration of structured and unstructured data from MQTT to FTP.

Seamlessly exchanges sensor-based information with key business systems, such as ERP, WMS and TMS. Offers comprehensive machine-to-machine or application-to-application integration capabilities.

Transforms and orchestrates IoT data into actionable insights, visually represented in different forms. Combines comprehensive IoT analytics with advanced AI and machine learning capabilities to allow companies to quickly assess operational performance based on historical sensor data.

Ensure entities are who or what they claim to be with more connected devices and more business-critical data flowing between them.

Govern how data is shared in a digital ecosystem and who is authorized to send or receive certain data streams.

Remain system agnostic and support interoperability with several competing IoT protocols.

Support the expected exponential growth in connected industrial equipment and billions of IoT endpoints likely to evolve over the coming years.
