AWS IoT Greengrass vs Cumulocity IoT comparison

AWS IoT Greengrass seamlessly extends AWS to edge devices so they can act locally on the data they generate, while still using the cloud for management, analytics, and durable storage. With AWS IoT Greengrass, connected devices can run AWS Lambda functions, Docker containers, or both, execute predictions based on machine learning models, keep device data in sync, and communicate with other devices securely – even when not connected to the Internet.

With AWS IoT Greengrass, you can use familiar languages and programming models to create and test your device software in the cloud, and then deploy it to your devices. AWS IoT Greengrass can be programmed to filter device data, manage the life cyle of that data on the device, and only transmit necessary information back to AWS. You can also connect to third-party applications, on-premises software, and AWS services out-of-the-box with AWS IoT Greengrass Connectors. Connectors also jumpstart device onboarding with pre-built protocol adapter integrations and allow you to streamline authentication via integration with AWS Secrets Manager.

Let’s keep IoT simple.

Welcome to the stress-free IoT platform! Cumulocity IoT was built from the ground up to be open, rapid to deploy and distributed. You can connect any “thing” and get started in minutes. 

Cumulocity IoT’s completely open approach to IoT and powerful integration capabilities release you from being tied-in to a specific solution. You get a truly rapid self-service approach on a resilient platform you can trust, with the ability to build your own branded IoT solution and generate business value in weeks rather than months.

With a lack of industry standards and a fragmented marketplace, it can be a challenge to connect devices. With Cumulocity IoT, you’ll have out of the box connectivity to 100+ devices and support for 300+ protocols. All while being able to connect to 3rd party applications and other IoT platforms.

Software providers too often impose constraints on deployment architecture and infrastructure. You can deploy the solution where it best suits your needs. on-premises, in the Azure cloud, at the edge, regardless of infrastructure using a common API platform.

We offer a market leading IoT solution for companies that are looking to better differentiate their products, create new revenue streams from service contracts, while decreasing costs for maintenance services and unexpected downtime. Improve customer satisfaction with the support of an organization that has been at the forefront of digital transformation for more than two decades.

With features like integrated streaming analytics, pre-configured smart rules and field bus connectivity, you can begin to create complex IIoT solutions quickly and smoothly. Cumulocity IoT delivers a fast, demonstrable ROI using the unique self-service capabilities in Cumulocity IoT and a QuickStart program which makes it possible for operational and Line of Business managers to maximize the value they get from IoT and get there more quickly. Count on us to continue delivering features that help you get things done faster.

Efficient

To minimize latency, data traffic and storage volume, Cumulocity IoT Edge processes large data volumes necessary for sophisticated analytics close to the data source. Transfer data to the cloud when needed. That saves you costs, energy, and resources, for more sustainable operations.

Autonomous

Key manufacturing processes require autonomous IoT solutions. With Cumulocity IoT Edge, you can control machinery and production processes in offline mode and during periods of unstable connectivity—reliably and efficiently.

Make analytics for everyone

Cumulocity IoT’s self-service capabilities include analytic streaming and predictive capabilities which can be driven and utilized by operational teams without the need to write code. This enables your machine operators, process engineers and plant managers to quickly develop analytics that detect trends and anomalies in areas such as predictive maintenance.

Develop once, deploy everywhere

Cumulocity IoT is an independent, open platform that can run in any combination, whether it’s on the cloud, on-premises and/or at the edge, or even a hybrid combination. The future is your hands, giving you the flexibility to grow in the future and deploy on almost any device and infrastructure, integrating with any enterprise app.

Productive

Thanks to the solution’s embedded intelligence, you’ll boost productivity and automate the entire server lifecycle. Intelligent edge capabilities mean that analytics can be pushed to the edge, whether it be thin or thick edge – these can then run autonomously on low-powered, miniaturized devices in the field to decrease network usage and handle significant events when connectivity is down until connectivity is restored. Allowing you to stay productive throughout.

Integrate with everything

Thanks to Software AG's leadership in integration & middleware, the Cumulocity IoT platform provides best-in-class tools to address the OT-IT gap, including hybrid cloud and on-premises integration to integrate your field service, customer care, CRM and ERP systems.

Secure

Cumulocity IoT’s telco-grade security architecture means you can depend on the platform to remain secure. Each server comes with an extensive security layer and is enhanced with Cumulocity IoT’s software-side (carrier grade) security mechanisms, guaranteeing protection of your enterprise and your customers.
