In addition, Cognito Networks provides an Autonomous IoT Edge solution for low-latency applications where real-time policy and process decisions based on sensor data are made right at the edge of the network. Examples include applications in Mining, Industrial IoT, Healthcare, and Safety and Security.
Define your Enterprise IoT Applications in Three Modular Steps
Develop your Catalog of Entities
Cognito Entities are highly flexible management and policy constructs that can scale from a single sensor or thing to a complex process with hundreds of things. You can choose pre-defined entities and customize them to your specific application requirements. You can also create composite entities based on administrative domain, location, and business workflows.
Define Management and Business Policies
Use the graphical interface of the Policy Builder to define policies for the various entities. Create relevant business actions, such as Salesforce or SAP integration, based on triggers from the various entities. You can also build a library of policy templates that can be reused, re-purposed, or combined throughout the organization.
