BOSTON, MA – Sept. 30, 2016

relayr, the rapidly growing global Internet-of-Things (IoT) platform provider, projects its strongest quarter yet as they announce their membership in the OpenFog Consortium and upcoming enterprise and industrial Internet of Things (IoT) education initiative.

 

Founded by leaders in the industrial Internet of Things in November 2015, with a stated mission of driving industry and academic leadership in fog computing architecture, test bed development, and a variety of interoperability and composability deliverables that seamlessly leverage cloud and edge architectures to enable end-to-end IoT scenarios, the OpenFog Consortium has already grown to 45 member organizations. Today’s announcement that relayr has joined the OpenFog Consortium highlights their commitment to enabling IoT innovation for all organizations around the world.

 

As part of its enterprise and industrial IoT education initiative, relayr announces a series of webinars in collaboration with partners Intel and Fast Lane and an international hands-on workshop event series with Avnet and Cisco.

 

The webinar series is designed to educate relayr’s partner ecosystem and enterprise end user customers on how to identify iIoT Innovation needs that address business critical pain points, understand the key components that go into solving those needs, and provide examples of real business outcomes of proven solutions across multiple industries.

 

The multi-city workshop event series across North America and Europe will provide hands-on experience to relayr’s partner ecosystem and to enterprise end user customers, promoting a deep understanding of Industrial IoT solutions and demonstrating the ease of building an IoT prototype in one day with relayr and key partner technologies.

 

“Fog computing is referred to as the edge, but it really is at the center of any effective IoT strategy. Not only does relayr deliver that “last mile of connectivity” to the edge, but we provide the knowledge and support to enable rapid development and implementation of industrial IoT solutions from the edge to the core and back,” says Josef Brunner, relayr CEO.
