The optiCLOUD is the highly scalable Internet platform from optiMEAS for the industrial Internet of Things (IoT) and applicable in all industries.
With the optiCLOUD network your machines, vehicles, components or entire plants. You can reliably combine recorded machine data, process it intelligently, trigger alarms and actions and gain valuable insights for business optimization.
You can start directly
The optiCLOUD already provides all the functions required to bring transparency to machine and plant processes, to monitor and control them and to implement new, data-based business models.
You also do not need to worry about issues such as storage volume, interfaces or data security. The optiCLOUD is ready for use, established and offers a maximum of data security.
Language, appearance, operation and content can be quickly and easily individualized. Functions can be switched on step by step as required. optiMEAS guides you safely through the whole process.
The right platform
for your IoT project
The optiCLOUD serves as a central storage, communication and control unit for a wide range of IoT applications.
On the one hand, it provides seamless live data for your real-time analyses.
In addition, the detailed, high-resolution measurement data streams, which provide a deep insight into the physical processes, are also used in optiCLOUD collected. This data enables you to use artificial intelligence and Big Data analyses to make industrial processes smarter in the long term and to detect things that would otherwise be undetectable.
Even large amounts of data generated in a very short time are stored and processed by the optiCLOUD optimal. Data and functions are available to the authorized user via any Internet-capable terminal device - at any time and any place.
Basic functions
- Fleet overview ("control room")
- Definition of rule chains for alarms, notifications & actions
- Planner for the automatic triggering of control chains
- Customer-specific settings, e.g. the Cloud interface
- User administration
- Device management
- Customer-specific visualization interface / dashboard
The optiCLOUD allows you to integrate any edge device, measurement device & data supplier.
The optiCLOUD integrates any number of devices at worldwide distributed locations. It is perfectly matched to the devices of optiMEAS. But also the integration of other "data suppliers" is very easy.
Only the open message protocol MQTT (Message Queuing Telemetry Transport) is required to connect live data. This enables platform- and device-independent data to be sent to the optiCLOUD sent and, if necessary, received - from smartphone apps or controller devices as well as from Linux- or Windows-based systems.
High-resolution measurement data, image and video files are transmitted via the HTTPS protocol. Firmware updates or new device configurations are also carried out via secure HTTPS communication.

Transparency
for machines & processes
Interactive fleet & asset management
Complete fleets under control
The fleet or plant overview is the ideal introduction. Individually configurable list and map views present higher-level information on the location, operating and usage status of networked machines, vehicles or components. Configurable dashboards visualize the necessary detailed information on route sequences, statistics or trends. Devices can be controlled directly via remote access.
Connect & manage devices quickly
plug and play
The provision, administration and configuration of any number of acquisition systems is extremely simple. Every new smart device and every device that supports integration is connected to optiCLOUD within minutes and transfers both live data and high-resolution measurement data files to the cloud.
Access worldwide at any time
Devices can be remotely controlled and configured individually and across devices. Apps for logger, alarm and other functions as well as updates for firmware and software are conveniently installed over-the-air (OTA) so that they are always up to date.
Visualize & analyze live data according to your needs
Meaningful dashboards
Clearly laid out dashboards provide users with the real-time information they need for the task at hand around the clock. If necessary, an immediate response can be made, errors and downtime are minimized.
Own look & feel
Dashboards can be easily and quickly adapted to individual wishes and requirements. A modular system with more than 80 widgets is available for configuration: Graphic elements such as traffic lights, dial gauges, status and scatter diagrams, progress and trend displays as well as interactive operating elements for switching and control tasks on the acquisition device.
Effortlessly define alarms & actions
Using live data for optimization
Many IoT applications can be implemented directly in the cloud. Using the graphically programmable rule engine, it is quickly defined how live data streams are to be evaluated and which events trigger automatically defined actions. Alarms in case of limit deviations and any other logic function are possible.
Examples for automatic event processing
- Precalculation of live data
- Data filtering
- Automatic alarm generation when limit values are exceeded
- Direct forwarding of data values
- Automatic notifications and actions for defined triggers
- Geofencing
- Automatic report generation
Control machines and processes remotely
As the optiCLOUD not only receives data, but also the digital outputs of smart devices the system is ideally suited for process control - both for service calls and in productive operation. It can be controlled interactively via the dashboard interface or automatically using predefined processes.
Easy integration of business IT & external systems
Added value through optiCLOUD REST API
The open REST API makes all cloud functions available for further industry 4.0 applications and business processes. Machine and operational data can be directly integrated into ERP and other enterprise systems - for maintenance planning with demand-oriented spare parts ordering as well as for usage-based billing in pay-per-use models.
Retrieve & evaluate high-resolution measurement data
Build up valuable process knowledge
Analyses of the unfiltered measurement data provide valuable detailed knowledge of the dynamic, physical processes within the machine. Using artificial intelligence and the necessary domain knowledge, patterns and dependencies can be identified. Rules derived from this can be transferred into algorithms and device apps for new IoT applications.
Direct analysis with optiCONTROL and optiMATOR
Which with each smart device delivered software optiCONTROL offers convenient access to the measurement data files and numerous functions for interactive data viewing and evaluation. The software is designed for automated analysis processes such as the routine calculation of relevant characteristic values. optiMATOR specialized. The plug-in-based concept allows the integration of freely defined analysis processes (e.g. Python scripts).
Open for specialized evaluation tools
Proven standard software can be connected via the REST API, for example X-Frame/DIAdem (measX/NI), MATLAB (MathWorks) or FAMOS (imc). All data collected in optiCLOUD can be imported quickly and are directly available for statistical and in-depth analyses.
