  • 1.  Press release: Aruba, Microsoft & reelyActive IoT collaboration

    Aruba Collaborates with Microsoft and reelyActive to Speed the Migration of IoT Workloads to Microsoft Azure without Custom Engineering

    Quick summary of what this collaboration represents:

    • there are tens of billions of radio-identifiable devices/sensors (ex: Bluetooth Low Energy)
    • there are 35 million Aruba WiFi/BLE access points deployed that can relay these device transmissions
    • Aruba IoT Transport for Azure provides reliable & secure passage to the Microsoft Azure cloud

    The piece reelyActive added is Pareto Anywhere for Azure which translates the heterogeneous mix of device messages into a cohesive standard JSON representation that is vendor-and-technology-agnostic.  And it is free and open source so that organisations can advance confidently in their digital transformation with freedom from artificial constraints.

    A big step forward for IoT interoperability!  See also Speeding the Migration of IoT Workloads to the Cloud for context on the problem that HPE Aruba Networks is trying to solve with this collaboration.

    Our Infrastructure 4.0 blog post adds context to why we feel this is a big step forward for IoT interoperability and adoption.

    I know that a lot of AIoT Canada members come from a network operator background, and therefore may be less familiar with the model where "things" are identified and communicate spontaneously with independently-operated infrastructure at a human scale, so I hope this provides some insight into this branch of IoT which is essentially an extension of AIDC (Automatic Identification & Data Capture) and RTLS (Real-Time Location Systems).
