IoT Products

AggreGate is an Internet of Things integration platform that enables quick solution for five aims of any IoT application: data acquisition, storage, processing, visualization and enterprise application integration. In contrast to other solutions that provide underlying infrastructure and SDKs for vertical application development, AggreGate ensures end-to-end coverage by offering visual development tools for designing end-user UIs as well as server-side processing chains.

The vendor-agnostic M2M Platform includes hundreds of device drivers enabling connection of any industrial or consumer IoT device. Besides using driver-based data normalization, AggreGate enables acquiring data via external or embedded Agents, device-side protocol converters that provide data buffering and server communications optimized for unreliable low-bandwidth cellular and satellite communications.

Technical Specification

 

Rich Connectivity with IoT Equipment

AggreGate supports a huge set of communication protocols, including M2M/IoT, IT, and automation protocols, as well as generic protocols like SQL and SOAP. Whenever write and control operations are supported by a protocol, AggreGate can use them.

Adopted for M2M Communications

Agents establish outgoing connections to the server themselves. That makes them an ideal solution for cellular and satellite networks that don't assign white static IP addresses. Same technology overcomes any firewall/NAT issues of typical industrial networks.

Unified Data Model

AggreGate's Unified Data Model delivers generic flexible approach for configuring, controlling and monitoring any device, data source or system object, regardless of its vendor, model, type and purpose.

Modular, Scalable and Reliable IoT Architecture

Modular architecture of AggreGate IoT cloud platform ensures that new data storage, processing and visualization modules may be installed into server core as plug-ins. For example, adding vehicle tracking capabilities to an existing M2M system is just a matter of extension pack installation.

Batch Delayed Device Configuration

Want to reconfigure a thousand devices that only connect to the cloud for five minutes daily? No need to wait once they get online simultaneously. Apply configuration changes and they get delivered on best effort basis.

Centralized Firmware Management

Centralized firmware and configuration upgrades are crucial for any Internet of Things application. These updates can be delivered to your devices via the central server using standard or proprietary communication protocols. Scheduling distribution to night hours keep your services almost intact.

Remote Location Plan Designer

AggreGate M2M Application Platform comes with an integrated visual UI Builder. It's the tool for designing forms, charts, reports, tables, custom interfaces, and maps using the mouse. No programming is required, even for binding UI components with server/device data.

Dynamic Mapping

Show devices, groups, routes, geofences, links and other objects on geographical maps that use any source, such as Google Maps, Bing Maps, OpenStreetMap, or other. Add layers, controls and selectors to your maps and visually build any custom operator interfaces.

Aggregated Status Dashboards

Visualize device groups and system-wide KPIs on top-level operator dashboards that have multi-tier drill down navigation to individual devices and services. Run your executive reports in just a few mouse clicks.

Secure Device Communications

All communications between servers and agents can be bridged through SSL-secured connections and compressed to fit GPRS/3G/LTE and satellite links. Agents are smart enough to send only important events instead of raw metric values whenever necessary.

Cloud-based Big Data Storage

Despite all enterprise-grade relational databases are supported as a device data storage, event streams flowing from the IoT world can be directed to big data cloud. Integraged NoSQL storage facility can run either in-process or on a dedicated multi-node storage cluster.

Centralized M2M Asset Inventory

Add custom attributes to network devices and system resources, use tabular attributes with custom structure and any length. Use out-of-box inventory information definitions (serials, responsible persons, notes, photos, locations, asset events, etc.). Enrich system alerts and events with information fetched from any third-party inventory system via any protocol (SQL, SOAP, etc.)

Patented Technology

Being a leading IoT platform provider, Tibbo introduces many innovations to the M2M/IoT technology. AggreGate Platform provides a unified data model that comprises normalized representations of diverse hardware and exposes device data for the internal processing/visualization tools and external systems.

Alerting and Event Processing

Flexible event management capabilities, including event filtering, aggregation, deduplication, masking, correlation, acknowledgement, and root cause analysis. Customizable alerts supporting different types of triggers, notifications (sound, popup messages, e-mail, SMS etc.), escalation, and corrective actions.

Charting and Trending

Charting support offers a wide list of chart types, including dynamically updated charts. Thousands of configurable chart properties. Support for auto-calculated trend lines such as percentiles, moving averages, etc.

Comprehensive Reporting

Advanced reporting facility, automatic report generation from any viewed/edited data. Built-in report editor, report printing and exporting in different formats.

Free Open-source SDK

Use our open-source Java, .NET, C/++ and mobile APIs to extend your Internet of Things solution and transparently integrate IoT services it into any other enterprise systems.

Flexible Security Model

From the ground up, AggreGate was designed with a multi-tenant, multi-user approach. Granular permissions and role-based access control are inseparably woven into all aspects of the system.

Failover Clustering

All core IoT technologies rely to high availability services ensured by a multi-node failover cluster. Two cluster levels enable protection of AggreGate server and underlying database. Our home-grown clustering technology does not depend on any third party software or clustering support of the operating system.

Distributed Architecture

Unlike many M2M platforms, AggreGate scales to thousands of micro-servers running on single-board ARM-based Linux computers, as well as millions of devices in a device cloud. The unique multi-tier distributed architecture help establishing true IoT-style peering relations between all embedded and regular servers. It guarantees unlimited scalability by balancing system functionality between multiple servers divided into several layers.
