IoT
One of the new challenges arising with the use of edge, fog, and cloud architectures is the connection of components to each other and to the public cloud. An important element of developing a solution capturing all pieces is the IoT framework susietec
At the field, or edge level, data is collected by industrial computers, e.g. by gateways, which process, filter, analyze and act on these data in real-time right at the device.
Edge, fog and cloud applications demand increasing computing power. The interfaces to sensors or machines often require non-standard solutions. Especially in smaller machines, space is limited or restricted in some dimension and need a special solution.
Today, the connection from the sensor device to the embedded cloud takes place via real-time data communication, on sensor and edge level - for example Industrial Ethernet or fieldbuses - and gateways , which provide the transformation of real time data into the informational area.

Kontron AG extends rugged product portfolio with acquisition of DIGITAL-LOGIC AG
Compact, ruggedized computers complement company’s harsh environment expertise
Eching, Germany, September 24, 2009 – Kontron, one of the leading companies of Embedded Computer Technology, further extends its global market position with the acquisition of the non-public DIGITAL-LOGIC AG, headquartered near Solothurn, Switzerland. Kontron takes over a 78 percent majority of DIGITAL-LOGIC AG, which is specialized on highly reliable and compact rugged embedded computer boards and systems since 1992. Kontron intends to increase its ownership of the company with 15 million EUR revenue and 100 employees to 100%.
With the acquisition, Kontron further increases its market share strengthening the market position in Central Europe and complements the product portfolio for the strategically important markets of Railway/Transportation, Military/Aerospace/Security and Medical. All those markets need embedded computers with highest reliability and longevity. The portfolio comprises of: small form factor single board computers PC/104, PC/104-Plus and PCI/104-Express, as well as fan-less, rugged and compact embedded computers for stationary and mobile applications. The products are designed and manufactured with the typical Swiss precision to withstand extended temperature range and high shock-/vibration in harsh environments. There will be great synergies for the new member in the Kontron group utilizing Kontron´s strong global Sales/Marketing channels and supply chain.
Ulrich Gehrmann, CEO of Kontron AG says, “The philosophy towards highest quality and excellent customer relationship of the DIGITAL-LOGIC team is well aligned with our strategy, and from the complementary product offerings in the area of standard and customized rugged compact computers, our customers will benefit a lot. The close location of DIGITAL-LOGIC to our headquarters will ease the integration and management of the new team.”
DIGITAL-LOGIC will be integrated under the Kontron AG as “Kontron Compact Computers AG”
