New Solutions Simplify IoT Device Connectivity and Bring Aruba ESP to Microsoft AzureAruba, a Hewlett Packard Enterprise company (NYSE: HPE), in collaboration with Microsoft, announced two new solutions that enable organizations to accelerate their digital transformation from edge-to-cloud by delivering deeper integration between Aruba ESP (Edge Services Platform) and Microsoft Azure.
Announced at Microsoft Ignite 2021, the first solution is Aruba IoT Transport for Azure, a service that enables IoT devices connected to Aruba access points (APs) and controllers to bi-directionally communicate with the Azure IoT Hub.
The better instrumented a facility is with IoT devices, the more hyper-aware it becomes, thus yielding better, richer insights, which can then be utilized across the infrastructure in support of business objectives.Yet, securely and economically implementing IoT monitoring and control of devices across a site can be challenging.
The breadth of data and its sources, the interface with legacy IoT devices that use non-interoperable protocols, securing the data path, and the prohibitive cost of implementation are just a few of the hurdles that organizations may encounter when embarking on a facility modernization project.Working closely with Microsoft, Aruba developed the Aruba IoT Transport for Azure service – the first of its kind for general purpose applications – to address these challenges.
Additionally, the solution allows customers to run IoT systems and services over their existing Aruba infrastructure, thus reducing the time, cost and risk of developing homegrown or customized solutions.
This frees customers to focus on instrumenting facilities, achieving hyperawareness, and deriving deeper insights from their business processes.Security is always front-and-center when it comes to IoT because many IoT devices are fundamentally untrustworthy.
