Edge Device operators managing edge devices and sensors need a platform to provision and monitor devices and their health. EDG provides an intuitive, easy-to-use interface that allows users to create custom dashboards and widgets to monitor device behavior in realtime. With EDG’s device and asset management capabilities, assets can be managed and grouped by facility, owner, region, or other custom grouping attributes.
Edge data operators and analysts need a platform to analyze data from edge devices and sensors. EDG provides an analytics engine that is able to process and analyze large volumes of edge data to provide insights into device performance, usage patterns, and trends. Data can be filtered, aggregated, and correlated. EDG can also serve as a data distribution hub, pushing data into other or third-party systems. Auditing against data regulations such as GDPR is already a very important task and can be managed through EDG, making auditor’s lives easier.
Edge system administrators and operators who manage and maintain edge infrastructures, including devices, networks, and platforms, require a scalable and secure platform that provides advanced management capabilities. EDG offers these capabilities, including user access control, device management, system monitoring, and more, allowing administrators to manage and monitor the entire IoT infrastructure from a single interface.
The ability to easily access devices and their data saves a tremendous amount of time, especially during the initial prototyping phase. In addition, engineers developing edge applications need a platform that provides APIs, SDKs, and tools to develop custom applications and integrations. EDG provides a comprehensive developer toolkit, including edge and device runtimes.
Boost Your Entire Business With the Power of Data
Access to extracted data strengthens your business in many ways. aicas Edge Data Gateway enables use cases that rely on data from small embedded devices or vehicles. Examples include machine learning, digital twins, supply chain management, fleet monitoring. They all require specific data that can be filtered and aggregated using EDG.
Find out how you can benefit:
One single platform to access all deep data.
aicas EDG enables unified access to collect, select, and manage data from diverse sources at the network’s edge. It provides easy access to data from a variety of platforms, architectures, or fleets of devices and vehicles through a single application.
Reduce data volumes to your real needs.
aicas EDG allows you to select relevant information. Only the data you need is captured and sent to the cloud. This reduces bandwidth, costs, and processing time. Relevant data insights help identify problems or opportunities to improve before high costs occur.
Interpret data in realtime.
Make secure, informed, data-driven decisions in near realtime and with low latency. Gain insights from live data to improve operational and cost efficiency, safety, and performance. EDG identifies patterns, trends, and potential issues in realtime for efficient fleet management, simultaneous vehicle monitoring, operational optimization, and compliance.
Extend your system with any type of data.
To ensure high adaptability, aicas EDG supports a wide range of communication protocols. Thus, it is scalable across heterogeneous fleets of devices and target systems and supports any use case.
No programming required.
No programming skills are required to use aicas EDG. Users can create complex data pipelines using common building blocks in an easy-to-use, codeless, flow-based approach. Costly modifications are not necessary. Data can be easily aggregated and filtered on a situational basis, enabling rapid response to situations.
Visualize data to easily gain insights.
Create custom visualizations with the Dashboard Editor, which includes an extensive widget library. Custom charts easily display complex data, visualize live data, and allow you to quickly derive business conclusions.
Expandable as you grow.
Sophisticated role-based access and multi-tenancy capability allow to perfectly adapt EDG to existing infrastructures and personnel structures, and to smoothly integrate it into existing business processes.

Use Case Example
Use Case: Automotive Live Data Dashboard
WHAT
An automotive OEM wants to integrate, select, and visualize live vehicle data in a dashboard for realtime insights.
HOW
The aicas solution provides seamless access to realtime vehicle system data, such as vehicle diagnostics, sensor readings, and GPS locations. The dashboard analyzes, extracts, and visualizes insights from incoming live data streams. This enables live monitoring of speed, position, battery status, vehicle fault indications, fuel consumption, distance traveled, and much more. The solution provides over 100 configurable graphical widgets and can be used without programming skills.
VALUE
The insights provided by the dashboard enable operational and cost efficiencies as well as improved safety and performance. Decisions, responses, and actions can be taken immediately and cost effectively.
USE CASE DEMOS
Automotive Smart Data Access Demo
At CES 2022, aicas partnered with AWS, MathWorks, and NXP to present a product demo. It shows the new world of data-driven capabilities easily accessing deep vehicle data.
Live Data Vehicle Dashboard Demo
At the Covesa All Member Meeting 2023, aicas debuted its new demo “Live Data Vehicle Dashboard”.

No Code Editor
The No Code Editor inside EDG allows users – without any programming knowledge required – to route, process, filter, and aggregate data. The editor comes with a large number of pre-built data operation nodes, but can also be extended with custom-coded new elements. This allows data coming from the edge to be wired to feed the EDG dashboards, trigger notifications and alarms, or provide further value for external consumers, such as an analytics system.
-
Data Processing
EDG chains logical blocks that aggregate or filter incoming data. This makes it really easy to select, sort, and filter data. As a result, you have access to exactly the selection of data you need. Based on this valuable information, you can support your data-driven business and application models.
-
Data Routing
Once the data is transferred to the cloud, you often need to pass it on to other systems or third-party applications. With EDG, this can be done through an easy-to-use graphical editor without having to write a single line of code.
-
Data Visualization
Designing dashboards to visualize data can be done without any technical background. It is just a matter of dragging UI elements into the editor and selecting the data source. No programming is required to create powerful dashboards - quick and easy.
-
Integration With Cloud Data Services, e.g., AWS
EDG integrates well with cloud data services, especially AWS IoT services such as FleetWise and Greengrass, to postprocess, aggregate, and visualize the data in user-configured dashboards. As part of the aicas EdgeSuite on the other end, it can control edge agents to easily collect, organize, and send the right data to the cloud.
