Tech Data, Dell and Nexiona join forces in Miimetiq Edge-- an all-in-one Internet of Things (IoT) development platform the 3 companies says allows developers and service providers to jumpstart IoT projects.

Internet of ThingsPart of the Tech Data SmartForce lineup of end-to-end IoT solutions, Miimetiq Edge comes as an integrated solution with the Dell Edge Gateway 5000 series. The gateway is powered by Intel processors and connects with both legacy and modern sensors and devices, while the Nexiona Miimetiq Lite allows system integrators and service providers to rapidly design, prototype and commercialise industrial IoT applications.

The Miimetiq Lite supports over 60 M2M and IoT protocols and communications technologies, including MQTT, CoAP, Sigfox, HTTP, TCP and UDP, and is built on a flexible service-oriented architecture (SOA) customers can integrate with IBM Watson and Microsoft Azure IoT cloud services.

"We are very excited to launch Miimetiq Edge in cooperation with Dell and Tech Data. This ground-breaking new product opens up the IoT opportunity for systems integrators, with a ready-made solution for creating a scalable and highly flexible connected environment," Nexiona says. “Miimetiq Edge allows systems integrators and end users to own and operate their own platforms, enabling a hybrid mix of cloud and on-premise hosting, while removing the dependence on a single supplier. We see it as a game-changer, offering an adaptable and affordable solution which addresses the growing demand for multiple small-scale IoT implementations in the SMB segment.”
