EdgeOps for Distributed Utility Infrastructure

Applying operational discipline to distributed compute infrastructure across substations, plants, renewable sites and other field environments.
Schedule a meeting
EdgeOps applies operational discipline to distributed compute infrastructure located in substations, plants, renewable sites and other field environments. These nodes require software lifecycle management, health monitoring, security updates, workload placement and remote recovery mechanisms that work reliably despite constrained access and intermittent connectivity.
WHY THIS “EDGEOPS FOR DISTRIBUTED UTILITY INFRASTRUCTURE” CHALLENGE?
Distributed edge infrastructure introduces a new operational estate that must be deployed, patched, monitored and secured consistently across many remote sites

As utilities adopt edge platforms and multi-technology connectivity, complexity moves from deployment to day-to-day operation. The infrastructure becomes a service estate with thousands of devices, software versions, identities, dependencies and performance indicators, making device-by-device monitoring increasingly insufficient.

Key benefits
Improving the reliability, security and operational consistency of distributed edge infrastructure through automated lifecycle management and integrated operations
