Combined offering makes it faster and easier to collect
equipment telemetry data at the edge, contextualize it and send it
to the Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud for asset monitoring and
predictive maintenance.
Belden Inc. (NYSE: BDC), a leading global supplier of network
infrastructure and digitization solutions, is pleased to announce
an integration of its CloudRail software functionality with AWS IoT
SiteWise. CloudRail, which Belden acquired in 2023, enables
cloud-based device management that allows users to roll out, manage
and update edge devices globally. Its fully managed solution
pre-processes data locally before sending it to any cloud. This
integration brings together AWS’ data services and CloudRail’s
protocol management software for brownfield and greenfield data
acquisition, providing customers with a complete data solution.
The combined solution enables customers to effortlessly connect
their industrial assets and sensors to the AWS cloud using
CloudRail's proven software capabilities. CloudRail is designed to
streamline and standardize the discovery, acquisition and
normalization of data from any industrial environments, delivering
it in a ready-to-use format. The collected data is then seamlessly
ingested into AWS IoT SiteWise Edge for local processing,
monitoring and storage, while also being synchronized with AWS IoT
SiteWise in the AWS cloud for enterprise-wide visibility and
advanced analytics.
Key benefits of the CloudRail and AWS IoT SiteWise Edge
integration include:
- Accelerated Time-to-Value: CloudRail's plug-and-play access to
over 12,000 sensor definitions, combined with data normalization
capabilities, significantly reduces the time and effort required to
connect industrial assets to AWS IoT SiteWise, enabling customers
to start leveraging their data within hours instead of weeks.
- Simplified Edge-to-Cloud Data Flow: With a single, unified
solution, customers can seamlessly acquire, process and transfer
data from the edge to the cloud, eliminating the need for complex
integrations and ensuring data consistency throughout the
journey.
- Scalable and Secure Device Management: CloudRail's cloud-based
device management capabilities enable customers to securely roll
out, manage and update thousands of globally distributed edge
devices from a centralized platform.
- Broad Asset and Protocol Support: CloudRail's extensive library
ensures compatibility with both modern and legacy industrial
equipment. Modern machines can seamlessly connect via standard
protocols like OPC-UA, while brownfield scenarios benefit from
retrofitting old assets with secondary sensors. Additionally,
Modbus enables efficient connectivity for devices such as energy
meters.
“The integration of CloudRail with AWS IoT SiteWise Edge
provides our customers with a powerful and streamlined solution for
industrial data acquisition and analysis,” said Matthew Wopata,
Global Product Line Management Leader for Data Software
Applications at Belden. “This marks the latest way Belden and its
brands are helping companies around the world gather data at the
edge so they can leverage it to improve processes and increase
efficiency.”
Setup of the CloudRail integration is streamlined for users: In
a drop-down selection in the AWS Console, users can simply add
CloudRail’s software as a data source for their IoT SiteWise Edge
gateway. To set up the sensors, smart meters and OPC UA servers as
field devices, users are directed to the CloudRail Device
Management Cloud (DMC). Everything else is automatically done
within AWS. This allows end users to benefit from the simplicity of
the CloudRail solution without the need to deploy physical edge
gateways.
CloudRail’s new integration with AWS IoT SiteWise Edge, the
latest collaboration between Belden and AWS, is now available to
customers. To learn more, visit the AWS booth during the
International Manufacturing Technology Show (IMTS), set for Sept.
9-14 in Chicago.
