Enterprise Connections supported by the IIoTA™ Industrial Internet of Things Appliance

For a typical interface with Enterprise (IT) applications, traditional platforms provide APIs for you to write code.  Not so with the IIoTA™ (Industrial Internet of Things Appliance).

​

The IIoTA™ goes a step further and delivers with Transports plus an Integrated Database Server. 

A Transport is a connection to a database server on the Enterprise side.  The IIoTA™ can be used as a gateway between your factory floor (OT) network to the enterprise (IT) network.  Instantly map data to and from the database server using the IIoTA™.

​

To see how the IIoTA™ connects to a database server, watch the video named "Connecting to a SQL Database (Creating a Transport)."

The IIoTA™ is the world's first Integrated Database Server Appliance.  It allows for "IT Ride-thru".  This means that an Enterprise Network connection is not required.  Data can be captured locally.  If connected to the Enterprise-level and there is an enterprise network failure, there is no need to worry!  The IIoTA™ has store and forward capabilities.

Device Connections supported by the IIoTA™

The IIoTA's™ innovative technology securely identifies devices on the factory floor.  This smart technology allows the user smooth set up and configuration of device communication through the point-and-click nature of the IIoTA™.

To see how the IIoTA™ communicates to devices, watch the Data Commander™ video named "Connecting to a Device (PLC)."  Just a reminder, the IIoTA™ is the same form factor as the Data Commander™ but with added benefits and features.
