Applicable operating systems for this guide
To configure the ReliaGATE 15A-14 GreenEdge you need any PC with an operating system that features a modern web browser (Chrome recommended) and a SSH client to perform troubleshooting (i.e. Putty for Windows OS or ssh command line on Linux Shell or Windows Powershell)
Overview
The ReliaGATE 15A-14 GreenEdge is purpose-built for industrial environments with its powerful processing ARM Quad-Core CPU and the ability to seamlessly connect to global networks and 5G Ready
The ReliaGATE 15A-14 GreenEdge supports internal modularity, to conveniently enable deep personalization options. Drawing feature sets from a library of standard modules, it is possible to add as many extra capabilities as needed; examples of modules include a LoRa Concentrator, a LoRa Node, Digital and Analog I/O expansions, extra Ethernet ports (SFP, RJ-45, SPE), a RedCap 5G cellular module, a precision GNSS module, and much more. For customers that require even more specific capabilities, Eurotech offers customization services that can meet any demand.
The ReliaGATE 15A-14 GreenEdge takes a novel approach at helping developers, devops and Infosec Officers in creating, securing, and administrating projects and fleets of devices throughout the entire lifecycle:
- Hardware developers can leverage on a platform that is feature rich, with a wide range of radio and wired interfaces, deeply certified and fully hardened against physical cyber-attacks. An additional benefits is the internal modularity of the product, which enables a high degree of configurations that can be created by combining a library of standard and custom modules at a fraction of the cost and time usually needed for a custom design.
- Application developers can accelerate dramatically the creation of their applications by leveraging the APIs and services provided by Everyware Software Framework (ESF), Eurotech’s Java/OSGi middleware for IoT Edge Gateways. ESF supports ready-to-use field protocols (including Modbus, OPC-UA, S7), MQTT connectivity, and web-based visual data flow programming.
- Developers of containerized solutions can leverage the native Docker support.
- CISOs find the best-in-class Cybersecurity: a secure platform that has been certified to ISASecure/IEC 62443-4-2 SL2 and PSA Level 1 with an always-on physical antitampering monitor/logger that is active even when the system is removed from power. Eurotech cybersecurity services provide updates that are timely delivered and easily applied to ensure constant protection throughout the product’s lifecycle.
- Cloud developers benefit from native connectors to Eurotech Everyware Cloud, AWS and other third-party Cloud services.
- Devops can speed up and simplify most tasks thanks to advanced diagnostics, Zero Touch Provisioning, full remote device access and management.
With Everyware GreenEdge SaaS subscription, you will receive these unique benefits:
- Credential management service with zero-touch provisioning: onboard and provision your device fleet with a simple and secure process. It takes few minutes to get your first device connected to AWS IoT
- Streamlined device management with Eurotech Everyware Cloud (EC): monitor, supervision, upgrade devices, ensuring uninterrupted operations, minimal downtime, and integration with your enterprise systems
- Eurotech Everyware Software Framework (ESF) + ESF Industrial pack: an extensive set of industrial protocols to accelerate your integration and connect to your equipment: Modbus, OPC-UA, S7, FANUC, ETherNet/IP, TwinCAT, MQTT, BLE, and more to come.
- AWS IoT Greengrass v2 preinstalled: automatically provision your thing and start sending data in minutes.
- Software updates: receive GreenEdge software updates and security fixes to keep your system up-to-date and protected from vulnerabilities.
- Unified billing: the contract and the billing is managed through aws.
- Extensive documentation and tutorials to support your growth: build your Proof of Value by following simple tutorials and grow your application with cookbook recipes for specific use cases. Combine Southbound connectivity configurations with edge-processing recipes and accelerate your time to market.
Everyware Software Framework (ESF), a commercial, enterprise-ready edition of Eclipse Kura, the open source Java/OSGi middleware for IoT Edge Gateways. Distributed and supported by Eurotech, ESF supports ready-to-use field protocols (including Modbus, OPC-UA, S7), MQTT connectivity, web-based visual data flow programming and deep configuration. ESF is also integrated with Everyware Cloud (EC) SaaS, Eurotech IoT Integration Platform, enabling advanced diagnostics, zero-touch provisioning, and full remote device access and management.
