One of the new challenges arising with the use of edge, fog, and cloud architectures is the connection of components to each other and to the public cloud. An important element of developing a solution capturing all pieces is the IoT framework susietec
At the field, or edge level, data is collected by industrial computers, e.g. by gateways, which process, filter, analyze and act on these data in real-time right at the device.
Edge, fog and cloud applications demand increasing computing power. The interfaces to sensors or machines often require non-standard solutions. Especially in smaller machines, space is limited or restricted in some dimension and need a special solution.
Today, the connection from the sensor device to the embedded cloud takes place via real-time data communication, on sensor and edge level - for example Industrial Ethernet or fieldbuses - and gateways , which provide the transformation of real time data into the informational area.

Kontron to integrate OpenStack cloud management components with SYMKLOUD Series to kick-start Software Defined Infrastructure (SDI) roadmap
Early client demand and SYMKLOUD opportunities for mobile, cable and
cloud providers validates business model using OpenStack
Eching, Germany, February 19, 2014 – Today Kontron announced that it has become a Corporate Sponsor of the OpenStack Foundation. As a result, the Kontron SYMKLOUD Series will be available with pre-integrated OpenStack solutions, making it an ideal platform to provision a broad set of scalable solutions in cloud environments. Likewise, this move is a significant first milestone in the Kontron long-term strategy to design high density, integrated platform solutions for software defined infrastructure (SDI).
Kontron has already collaborated extensively with partner ISVs to enable them to work with OpenStack as a bare-metal installation of their cloud-aware applications. This includes the cloud provisioning of massively scalable content delivery applications for multiscreen subscriber services and machine-to-machine (m2m) or Internet of Things (IoT) backend cloud solutions.
"Our goal is to make sure cloud providers, along with mobile and cable operators, can maximize the high density design of the Symkloud platform to easily scale their workloads as required," said Benoit Robert, Strategy Director at Kontron, Communications Business Unit. "Creating multiple on-demand instances with OpenStack is truly seamless on Symkloud and offers customers the incredible flexibility to deploy services in public and private clouds."
"We are pleased to see Kontron helping telcos and cloud service providers leverage OpenStack to meet their unique business and technical requirements," said Jonathan Bryce, Executive Director, OpenStack Foundation. "OpenStack ecosystem members like Kontron are key to expanding the global footprint of OpenStack clouds."
Live demos using OpenStack will be presented at Kontron stand 5H19, Hall 5, during Mobile World Congress, February 24 – 27, 2014. For a personal demonstration, please click here to make an appointment or visit www.symkloud.com for more resources on the Kontron SYMKLOUD Series
