Kepware Alliance Solidifies IoT Cooperation

Convergence is a word that can be applied on so many levels within the industrial automation space these days. As we jump neck-deep into a world networking and data analysis demands, the convergence of information and operations technology (IT/OT) factions is paramount. But so is the convergence of talent and know-how from outside any given company. Nobody, it seems, can afford to go it alone in an Internet of Things (IoT) era. And no longer does that just mean big companies swooping up to buy the little guys and the solutions they’ve created.
Kepware Technologies, a software development company focused on communications for automation, has certainly found that involvement with other innovative companies like Splunk, Informatica and ThingWorx is key as it dives deeper into the IoT space. Talking with Kepware’s Adam Kennedy at a recent conference, he seemed excited about all the possibilities these partnerships can bring to the table.
