Challenge: Embedded IoT Platform for Remote Locations

Amatis needed to provide their IoT illumination system to remote locations with limited or no internet access. The existing cloud-based solution was not suitable for these environments, potentially limiting the company's market reach and ability to serve customers in isolated areas.

​

The challenge was to create a self-contained version of the Amatis core platform that could operate independently in remote locations without relying on constant internet connectivity. This solution is needed to maintain the full functionality of the cloud-based system while being compact and efficient enough to run on limited hardware resources.

Solution

Leveraging the recent migration to Kubernetes, Melt Studio developed an innovative approach...

​

• Embedded the entire Amatis core platform into a lightweight Linux appliance.

• Utilized the containerization and orchestration capabilities of Kubernetes to package the full system efficiently.

• Optimized the platform to run on minimal hardware, making it suitable for deployment in remote locations.

• Ensured the embedded system could operate autonomously without constant internet connectivity.

​

The Outcome:  This solution enabled Amatis to offer their advanced illumination system to locations previously unreachable due to connectivity limitations. The embedded appliance maintained full functionality while operating independently, expanding Amatis's market reach and enhancing its ability to serve diverse customer needs across various geographical locations.
