Sophistication for Scalability, Performance and Cost-Effectiveness
Blue Vector’s software lets you easily deploy one common “sense and respond” infrastructure that can be used throughout manufacturing, distribution, retail, transportation, and warehousing operations. More than just a simple data routing system, Blue Vector’s system includes truly distributed operational intelligence to insure that only meaningful events are passed over the network to your systems.
Blue Vector’s plug-and-play appliances handle the complexity of networking and integration, freeing you to revolutionize your operations.
Technology Benefits
Wide compatibility with all industrial sensors, RFID readers, barcode scanners
Network-centric infrastructure provides for the lowest total cost of ownership and fastest deployment time
No software or middleware to install and no servers to buy-and thus no compatibility and support issues
Guaranteed performance, reliability, scalability, robust security, and Quality of Service (QOS)
Seamless integration with existing business applications such as ERP, WMS and SCM
Constant monitoring of the health of all devices on the network by automatically creating and deploying intelligent “agents” around the network
Truly distributed appliance approach insures massive scalability and enables local processing—reducing dependence on network, and improving performance
Central web-based configuration eliminates the need to visit each location and enables easy configuration of data filtering, validation, transformation, and delivery options
One platform to unify all of your sensor automation projects, and solutions can include local displays, conveyors, buttons, and other equipment
Scale Out, Don’t Scale Up
Mirroring the approach followed by companies like Google and Yahoo, Blue Vector’s technology is designed with scalability in mind. Rather than requiring a company to periodically replace its infrastructure as automation projects are deployed, Blue Vector introduces a more modular approach: add capacity where and when it’s needed. Since the load in one location does not affect others, you can know in advance what future deployments will cost and how they will perform. If it works in one location, it’ll work in 1,000 more.
