Our product evolutions in 2023
Kuzzle IoT: key new features for 2023
New features have been developed for our IoT Platform to offer you even more performance:
- User rights and authentication: define groups of users and manage their access according to their rights.
- User management: thanks to the greater granularity of user rights, you can separate the rights linked to different types of users: manage and consult Devices (sensors), manage and consult Assets (assets), build and consult reports, etc.
- Soft-tenant management: Kuzzle IoT soft tenants partition data by the organization. The Soft-Tenant adds a layer to partition access to sensors and assets and their data. Get reports by sub-organisation, or department, within an organisation.
- Single sign-on: Kuzzle IoT now integrates with your user manager to delegate the management of user accounts thanks to single sign-on authentication.
- Equipment and sensor management: For our customers who manage large fleets of sensors and assets, we have simplified their batch management for commissioning with new functionalities:
- Batch reassignment of assets and sensors to facilitate migration between different organizations.
- Batch import of assets to add a large number of sensors and assets to the IoT platform, making it easier to synchronize equipment repositories.
- Asset group management for consulting, configuring and controlling connected devices in batches.
- LoRa network core: Kuzzle IoT natively provides a LoRa network core to facilitate the deployment of your private LoRa network.
- Reports and dashboards: Use our IoT platform to create your real-time reports and dashboards to monitor key indicators for your asset base:
- Export and send reports: Edit and email your reports in PDF format on a regular, customized basis (daily, weekly, monthly, etc.).
- Export of asset and sensor measurements: Easily integrate data from Kuzzle IoT into your operating reports in spreadsheet format (Excel, Google Sheets, etc.).
Kuzzle Data Science
To take data analysis, anomaly detection, and the use of our IoT platform even further, we have developed a new product, Kuzzle Data Science :
- Anticipate trends: With Kuzzle AIoT's predictive AI, transform your raw data into enriched data to reveal future trends and identify new opportunities.
- Go from real-time to prediction: With Kuzzle AIoT's predictive AI, go from real-time to instant prediction,
go from real-time to prediction instantly! Explore different scenarios and make strategic decisions.
- Generate content on demand: With Kuzzle AIoT's generative AI, get your business dashboards from a simple sentence. Automate your operational tasks to save time and resources.
- Predictive maintenance: With Kuzzle AIoT prediction, anticipate the failures of your connected equipment by analyzing their operating data in real time. Identify future behaviors and trigger alerts in anticipation of a guarantee
optimal use of your devices.
- Application generation: Create your IoT and Data applications in record time with Kuzzle AIoT's generative AI! Automatically generate your business software from your custom text requests. Eliminate code barriers and save time!
With our dynamic artificial intelligence that adapts to incoming data, Kuzzle AIoT enriches the real-time experience with prediction. Benefit from early warnings, advanced analysis, and content generated on demand. Our intelligent algorithms offer instant reactivity for informed strategic decisions.
Kuzzle Backend IoT Open Source
Our Open Source IoT Backend has also undergone some exciting developments over the year, with :
- Kuzzle Backend to a cluster architecture that supports scalability and service redundancy for high availability.
We have continued to improve our cluster management to enhance performance, with an overhaul of event propagation between nodes, and improved cluster resilience when new nodes are hot-started on 'slow' networks.
- Kuzzle Backend can now accept non-JSon content in API calls via REST HTTP
- Improved integration with Kubernetes container orchestrators with the addition of a specific API route for monitoring the successful start-up of a node.
We have developed our platform in collaboration with our customers to better meet their needs.
