New Standard and Premium Features Exemplify the Next Stage of IoT Evolution
Ayla Networks, a global Internet of Things (IoT) platform for manufacturers, is enabling manufacturers to move from mere IoT connectivity to achieving more of the promise of the IoT.
The company has announced new features of its IoT platform that make it easier and more convenient for manufacturers to manage their IoT products—especially as they deploy many thousands or millions of connected products—and to use IoT data from connected products to improve their businesses.
“While most IoT technology providers are still focused on issues of how to get connected to the IoT, Ayla is addressing the big question from manufacturers who already have connected products: Now what?” said Adrian Caceres, CTO, vice president engineering and co-founder of Ayla Networks. “Think of this latest set of updates to our Ayla IoT platform as building blocks enabling the next phase of IoT evolution—by helping manufacturers do useful things with IoT data generated by their connected products.”
The promise of the IoT has always been about using the data generated by connected devices—about the real-world performance of the IoT products as well as how people actually use the products—to improve future product designs, perform predictive maintenance, and provide add-on services that enhance the value for end users while providing additional revenue streams for manufacturers.
The Ayla IoT platform updates, all of which are at the Ayla Cloud level, include both standard and premium features. The new features are:
The Ayla IoT platform was a pioneer in enabling leading manufacturers worldwide to connect their products and join the IoT. Ayla provides comprehensive, end-to-end connectivity extending from the IoT product to the cloud and to the mobile apps controlling the devices.
As the IoT continues to evolve, and based on the experiences of Ayla’s existing manufacturer customers and feedback from the members of its Customer Advisory Board, Ayla continues to expand its platform capabilities so that manufacturers can take best advantage of each stage of IoT evolution.
“Our goal is to stay one step ahead of what manufacturers need—so that whenever a manufacturer is ready to move to the next stage of IoT evolution, the Ayla platform is ready and waiting to help them get there,” said Caceres.
