Edge platform provider Avassa and industrial computer maker OnLogic are working to provide a new industrial IoT edge platform combining hardware and software tailor-made for industrial environments.

OnLogic’s industrial computers are fanless, rugged, resistant to extreme temperatures, and built for harsh, industrial environments.

Avassa’s Edge Platform is purpose-built for managing and operating container applications running at the edge, and offers functionality for edge-specific challenges, such as targeted deployments, OS upgrades, and offline application capabilities.

An Avassa and OnLogic solution is currently being deployed by LiDAR monitoring specialists FlashEye to help prevent downtime at mining facilities.

“Avassa and OnLogic is a truly great match for several reasons. We often talk to customers who are building a new generation of IoT edge infrastructure, and that includes both edge computers and a software platform for managing edge and IoT applications. Just like the Avassa platform, OnLogic is what we call edge-native, purpose-built for distributed edge and IoT environments. Together we can offer customers a full-stack solution that excels in solving the unique challenges of edge.” said Carl Moberg, CTO of Avassa.

“We’re thrilled to partner with Avassa to help provide enterprise customers a comprehensive solution for containerisation and orchestration for modern edge deployments,” said Kim Wasserman, OnLogic VP of Product Management. “Their software solutions are a beautiful complement to our rugged and reliable hardware for IIoT applications and beyond. Like us, Avassa does everything they can to empower customers on their journey to innovation at the edge. We’re excited to offer OEMs, end users, and solution providers a more comprehensive solution for managing applications at the edge, and turning their data into actionable insights and ROI.”
