Buddy Platform and Ombitron Partner to Accelerate and Scale the Industrial Internet of Things + Major U.S. Carrier Renews
February 16, 2016 – Buddy Platform and Ombitron today announced coordinated efforts to assist enterprises in realizing the power and value of the Internet of Things (IoT). Connected devices and sensors, and the data they express, play an increasingly important role in business and industry, helping them gain real time insight into activities and processes. Until recently capturing, processing and activating this remote data at scale has been difficult and expensive.
By utilizing Ombitron’s multi-functional cellular gateways and Device Connectivity Management (DCM) Software, enterprises can easily and cost effectively connect and manage remote IoT machines. Buddy Platform’s highly scalable processing environment can then integrate this IoT data with other data sets, to enable actionable business decision making. Combining Ombitron’s end to end industrial IoT system with Buddy’s cloud based IoT data platform provides a compelling solution for enterprises needing to launch IoT deployments quickly and cost effectively.
David McLauchlan, Buddy CEO, describes the complexities as follows: “When enterprises are launching IoT solutions, they typically struggle to find a cost effective way to connect, and more importantly, manage remote data inputs. Ombitron has developed a very effective and complete solution to make it easy for these remote machines to be incorporated into an enterprise IoT strategy. Bringing Ombitron’s capabilities to the Buddy customer base will enhance the effectiveness of our customers’ IoT deployments.”
“Working with Buddy Platform to accelerate the adoption of the IoT is going to bring big benefits to our mutual customers”, said H. Paul Hammann, Ombitron CEO and Founder. “Buddy’s data processing environment is extremely robust and scalable. The integration of data into the environment and driving business results from the environment is simple and straightforward. Like Ombitron, Buddy is driven to remove the friction from IoT for enterprises”.
