IoT gateways manage device connectivity, protocol translation, security, data filtering and processing, and more. They aggregate sensor data, translate between sensor protocols, and process sensor data before sending it on to the network.
Next-generation IoT gateways also operate as platforms for edge analytics and become an active, intelligent part of many IoT solutions, improving responsiveness and supporting new operating models.
Gateways Act as IoT’s Bridge to the Cloud
Gateways make sense of and standardize different protocols and methodologies that must be managed, because different devices use different protocols (WiFi, Bluetooth, Ethernet, etc.), connect to different control environments, and operate with different security models. Gateways act as a bridge between sensors and the cloud. Sensors talk to a gateway, the gateway processes, translates and standardizes all that sensor data, and then the gateway talks to the cloud. Arrow’s range of gateway options can meet any of your needs with:• Ease of deployment
• Over-the-air updates
• Edge analytics and real-time insight
• Local/offline management
• Plug and play architecture
• Compute and storage
