This collaboration will integrate with Advantech’s “WISE-PaaS ”, IBM’s “SoftLayer” cloud infrastructure services, and IBM “Bluemix”, allows users to have more complete IoT application development environment on this platform.

By using this platform, all the data generated from the production machines in the factories, which can be gathered by Advantech’s sensor nodes and sensor gateway, can be monitored in this cloud platform in real-time and to deal with failure problems in the first place.

Advantech and IBM Japan also provide concrete demonstration. Customers can have the real experience of this solution in the IoT Experience Garage, IBM Client Experience Center, Tokyo Japan.
