Infor delivers Platform to Optimize Value from IoT Connected Devices

Infor announced the availability of Infor Internet of Things (IoT) in a multi-tenant deployment. Infor IoT provides IoT sensor data ingestion, securely and at scale, from anywhere. The IoT sensor data is synchronized with Infor EAM Asset information, bringing deeper context via blending of IoT data and asset transactional data, and delivering better exception detection, workflows, reporting, data analytics and artificial intelligence.

Infor IoT is integrated with Amazon Web Services (AWS) IoT, which enables customers to take advantage of AWS’s scalability, stability, and security. Additionally, IoT analytics are provided via Birst, a next-generation, cloud-based platform for networked business intelligence.

With Birst, companies can aggregate data from hundreds of thousands of IoT devices and model it into consistent metric frameworks. This enables them to track, analyze, and improve operational efficiency, safety/compliance, sales and marketing effectiveness, and more.

“Infor will deliver a step change in complex asset management through this IoT platform, and offer its customer base something that has been unattainable in the past,” said Kevin Price, Infor EAM Technical Product evangelist. “With wide-reaching improvements in energy, efficiency, and performance reliability, organizations can truly understand the condition of a multitude of assets in real-time, through confident aggregation of different sources inside and outside a given solution deployment.”
