PrismTech Announces General Availability of Vortex, the Intelligent Data Sharing Platform for the Industrial Internet of Things(ENP Newswire Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) ENP Newswire - 14 October 2014 Release date- 13102014 - Boston, MA, USA - PrismTech, a global leader in software platforms for distributed systems, today announced its new Vortex Intelligent Data-Sharing Platform is now generally available for evaluation and purchase. The Vortex platform provides the most comprehensive real-time data sharing solution for integrating device (sensors to servers), web, mobile and cloud environments. Vortex is ideally suited for Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) applications and is based on the Data Distribution Service (DDS) for Real-time Systems open standard. Vortex builds on proven technologies to provide an efficient solution for device-to-device, device-to-cloud and cloud-to-cloud Internet scale real-time data sharing. It is a crucial enabler for systems that have to reliably and securely deliver high volumes of data with stringent end-to-end qualities-of-service (QoS); hence its suitability for delivering the right information to the right place at the right time. In comparison to other proposed IIoT protocols such as MQTT, AMQP, XMPP and CoAP only DDS can provide the real-time, many-to-many, managed connectivity required by high-performance device-to-device applications. DDS is also emerging as a key interoperable messaging protocol for connecting real-time device networks to cloud based Data Centers. Vortex creates a system-wide global data space offering more than 20 configurable QoS to ensure the performance, efficiency, agility, security and robustness required of business-critical systems. It thus helps system integrators, OEMs, device vendors and cloud service providers deliver high-performance IIoT system solutions for many vertical markets, including smart cities and urban environments, smart grid and energy, transportation, healthcare, IT & networks, and industrial automation. The Vortex platform includes Vortex Cafe for mobile phones and tablets, Vortex Lite for embedded sensors, Vortex Cloud for cloud services, Vortex Web for browsers, Vortex OpenSplice for corporate systems and Vortex Gateway for integration with third party network technologies. From a Starter Kit (Cafe, Web and tools) to the full platform suite, Vortex components are delivered in convenient and affordable development and deployment bundles to simplify the evaluation and procurement process. The Vortex family also comes with a complete set of tools to support system development and management (e.g. configuring, testing, optimizing, monitoring and recording system behavior) and it provides a rich and open API for integration with other IIoT application development technologies, such as IDEs, Java EE application servers, M2M platforms and analytics engines. 'We developed Vortex to specifically address the performance needs and requirements of the Internet of Things, particularly the most demanding and business-critical applications,' said Steve Jennis, SVP Corporate Development, PrismTech. 'Vortex is an extremely powerful and flexible platform that enables all IoT end-point applications to share data in real-time-mobile employees, smart machines, tiny sensors, enterprise / cloud applications including data analytics and legacy systems.'
