Leading Vendors in MachNation’s 2019 IoT Edge ScoreCard
Edge platforms are beginning to play a vital role in the Internet of Things (IoT) ecosystem. Businesses deploying IoT solutions recognize that many optimally designed IoT solutions, especially those in the industrial vertical, take advantage of one or multiple edge components. In fact, MachNation research suggests that most IoT solutions in verticals such as manufacturing, commercial transportation, building automation, and logistics will be required to leverage edge computing in order to meet business and operational requirements.
In its 2019 IoT Edge ScoreCard, MachNation rated 17 IoT edge platform vendors across a set of requirements spanning four distinct categories. The four categories of requirement consist of 17 sub-requirements that are the underlying bases of MachNation’s rating. The four categories are:
- Edge data processing
- Edge management
- Architecture and integration
- Strategy and business
MachNation’s 2019 IoT Edge ScoreCard includes the following vendors (listed alphabetically): ADLINK, Amazon, Bosch, ClearBlade, Crosser, Eurotech, FogHorn Systems, Interactor, Litmus Automation, Microsoft, Nymea, Rigado, Siemens, Software AG, SWIM, Telit, and Wicastr.
