Siemens internet of things plugs into Hana cloud

摘要

Siemens has announced an addition to its Siemens cloud for industry (SC4I) that is to underpin new internet of things business models. The new kit is a 'connector box,' a Simatic IPC-based gateway that transmits machine and system data securely into the SC4I platform that is built on top of SAP's Hana cloud. The device connects machines and systems to the cloud via a manufacturer and protocol-independent connector.
