Industrial tech developer HighByte has expanded its software to allow rapid deployment industrial data-ops on Azure IoT Edge and Azure IoT Central. The latest version of its Intelligence Hub expands connectivity with Microsoft Azure services and the ability to import DTDL models from Azure Digital Twins.

Portland, Maine, based HighByte produces industrial software designed to address data architecture and integration challenges created by Industry 4.0. HighByte Intelligence Hub, industrial data-ops software, is designed to provide modelled, ready-to-use data to the Cloud using a codeless interface to speed integration time and accelerate analytics.

The Intelligence Hub version 2.5 is designed to improve the ability to monitor the health of data pipelines with several new capabilities, including the ability to monitor and alert when data is bad or stale and when flow performance is poor.

The latest release also allows administrators to manage authentication and authorisation of users through Active Directory and application settings through the user interface for simpler management, enhanced controls and monitoring, and improved security.

“As industrial data has become the major source of data for the broader business to drive improvement and new lines of revenue, the systems feeding the cloud for these initiatives must fall within the enterprise IT infrastructure,” said HighByte CEO Tony Paine. “With the latest release of the Intelligence Hub, we’ve added unparalleled support for Microsoft Azure as well as data pipeline monitoring and IT management capabilities. HighByte Intelligence Hub version 2.5 solves real, complex use cases for our customers.”
