Laboratory facilities are highly specialized, sensitive environments with fragile equipment, strict regulations, and stringent safety protocols, making proactive leak detection capabilities paramount for life sciences operations.
Enterprises and solution providers should expect certain core functionality from IoT devices and platforms. Over-the-air configuration, application, and firmware updates (in order of increasing complexity and bandwidth cost) should be high on that list.
While the LoRaWAN communication protocol provides AES-128 encryption of the data payload from the device through to the application, MachineQ goes a step beyond to provide secure backhaul transport between the gateway and the network server.
The more data points you are measuring and processing, the more complex your system becomes. The key to simplification is integration, and the far more effective approach to IoT deployment is to build your network as a scalable, flexible platform.
