Belden Inc. announced a new integration of its CloudRail software functionality with AWS IoT SiteWise Edge, designed to simplify and accelerate industrial data acquisition and analysis. CloudRail, which Belden acquired in 2023, provides cloud-based device management and pre-processes data locally before transmission to the cloud. This combined offering aims to make it faster and easier for customers to connect their industrial assets and sensors to the AWS cloud for asset monitoring and predictive maintenance.
The integration offers accelerated time-to-value, enabling customers to leverage their data within hours instead of weeks, thanks to CloudRail's plug-and-play access to over 12,000 sensor definitions and data normalization capabilities. It also simplifies the edge-to-cloud data flow, eliminating the need for complex integrations and ensuring data consistency throughout the journey. This streamlined process is crucial for modernizing manufacturing facilities and infrastructure.
Furthermore, the solution supports scalable and secure device management, allowing customers to securely roll out, manage, and update thousands of globally distributed edge devices from a centralized platform. It provides broad asset and protocol support, compatible with modern machines via OPC-UA and legacy assets through retrofitting and Modbus, enhancing Belden's competitive positioning in the industrial digitization market.
