Reference integrations with Microsoft Azure IoT and Google Cloud IoT Core
Use cases for Mender in Security, Surveillance & Access Control
Use cases for Mender Enterprise in Smart Energy & HVAC companies include robust and secure OTA software updates for:
Gateway management devices on industrial and home heating systems and ventilation systems, and support for key data privacy standards for the transmission of data through control systems such as EC62443.
Gateway management devices that collect data from PV panels, heat pumps and EV charging stations and submit this data to a cloud platform for analysis. The insights gained are used to optimise energy usage in businesses and homes.
Gateway management devices on EV charging stations that help load balance and manage energy consumption across the fleets based on demand at any given point in time.
Gateway devices and sensors that collect data on energy usage, environmental conditions such as temperature and weather, and building occupancy. Over LORA WAN networks, Mender keeps the gateway and sensor devices operating securely and efficiently by deploying the correct software artefacts.
Gateway devices on battery systems in vehicles working in remote locations such as mines. Mender provides critical atomic updates as the battery system can become disconnected from power and risk being bricked.
Learn why your company should go "smart"
Energy providers and smart energy system integrators need to have a great strategy in place for IoT gateway device management and security. This has implications for security, compliance with government regulations, and for the robust maintenance of new digital products built around over-the-air software updates.
