PAC – tecknowlogy Group named Eurotech best in class provider in the “Industrial IoT platforms based on open source” market
Eurotech was again recognized by PAC RADAR (teknowlogy Group) as one of the leading companies in “Open Digital Platforms for Open Source-based Industrial IoT”
PAC defines open source Industrial IoT platforms as those that "leverage open source technologies for large-scale IoT deployments across industrial, mobile, and other enterprise-related use cases". According to PAC, "The purpose of an IoT platform is to manage the underlying IoT infrastructure, create and manage IoT applications, and orchestrate the IoT dataflow between IoT infrastructure and IoT applications".
The use of open source as a base has three main advantages for clients: cost efficiency, vendor independence (avoid vendor lock in) and customization capabilities.
An Industrial IoT platform is built upon 3 main elements:
The image below represents the scheme architecture of Eurotech Everyware IoT, Eurotech's Edge-to-Cloud IoT architecture. It provides all the hardware and software components and services to enable end-to-end IoT solutions, from data collection in the field to remote device management, business analytics and AI enablement.

IoT platforms based on open source are becoming increasing available: vendors usually offer it with a trial period or a freemium business model. Basically, they consist of IoT platform whose code - or large part of it - is available for free.
From PAC RADAR's perspective, the Eclipse IoT Working Group "is without doubt the leading open source community around IoT today" and "no other community drives more open source-based OpT projects simultaneously".
In this IoT and Edge computing focused community, Eurotech is a committed founding member of a strong open source ecosystem, centered around the Eclipse IoT Working Group. Eurotech is original contributor of open source projects like Eclipse Kura – an IoT Edge framework and application development environment for IoT gateways – and Eclipse Kapua – an IoT platform for device management and data integration with Cloud and IT applications.
The PAC RADAR report makes a comparison of the most valuable providers of Industrial IoT platforms based on open source technologies by using two main criteria: competence - identified as the strength of the vendor's offering - and market strength - the vendor's positioning and perspectives in the market segment.
