Skkynet Partners with Renesas in Verified Software Add-on (VSA) Program

/by

Skkynet’s SkkyHub™ expands capabilities of Renesas Synergy™ Platform by providing secure, end-to-end IoT connectivity.

Mississauga, Ontario, October 13, 2015 – Skkynet Cloud Systems, Inc. (“Skkynet” or “the Company”) (OTCQB:SKKY), a global leader in real-time cloud information systems, has become a partner in the Renesas Synergy Verified Software Add-on (VSA) Program, enabling real-time connectivity between Renesas Synergy’s embedded development system and Skkynet’s SkkyHub™ secure Internet of Things (IoT) service. As a VSA partner, Skkynet’s SkkyHub will be fully verified by Renesas as compatible with current and future releases of the Synergy Software Package (SSP), an integral part of the Renesas Synergy Platform. Seamless integration with SkkyHub is expected to reduce barriers to entry into the IoT for industrial and embedded developers using the Renesas Synergy Platform.

“The ability to connect to SkkyHub will put Renesas Synergy Platform users immediately onto the Industrial IoT,” said Paul Thomas, President of Skkynet. “Our comprehensive, end-to-end service lets developers, engineers, and end-users securely connect to industrial systems using standard protocols, with no open firewall ports and no VPN. By leveraging secure-by-design technology, Renesas Synergy users will be able to start exchanging data with other embedded devices, OPC servers and clients, Modbus devices, Excel spreadsheets, ODBC databases and web browsers, right from day one.”

Understanding that time to market is a critical factor in the success of any IoT device, Renesas introduced the Renesas Synergy Platform earlier this year, which is an integration of qualified software, scalable microcontrollers (MCUs), hardware solutions and tools designed to reduce development time, lower the total cost of ownership, and eliminate obstacles that engineers face when developing products for the IoT. The Renesas Synergy VSA Program was launched as a way to broaden the value of the Synergy Platform and give customers access to specialized software like SkkyHub that is already verified as compatible with the Synergy Software Package and solutions.

“The IoT will enable new business models that require innovative applications. We created the Synergy VSA Program as a way to make sure customers have access to specialized software they’ll need to take their IoT designs from concept to production quickly and efficiently. We take the integration guesswork away because all VSA software is verified by Renesas to be compatible with the Synergy SSP,” said Mark Rootz, Marketing Director with the IoT Business Unit, Renesas Electronics. “Our VSA partners will also benefit from the program as it will allow them to access the large customer base of the global leader in MCUs.”

In addition to connecting to SkkyHub, Skkynet’s Verified Software Add-on (VSA) will also let users of the Renesas Synergy Platform immediately integrate with virtually any new or existing industrial system, by connecting seamlessly to the Cogent DataHub®. This leading industrial middleware product supports local network applications and industrial protocols such as OPC, DDE, ODBC, TCP and Modbus. Out-of-the-box connectivity to both the Cogent DataHub and SkkyHub provides Renesas Synergy users a complete, end-to-end connectivity solution, protecting their investments in existing equipment while ensuring an open path to the Industrial IoT right now, or in the future.

Skkynet’s Embedded Toolkit enables any device connected to a NetComm Wireless NTC-6200 3G M2M router to be linked to SkkyHub™.

Mississauga, Ontario, April 29, 2015 – Skkynet Cloud Systems, Inc. (“Skkynet” or “the Company”) (OTCQB:SKKY), a global leader in real-time cloud information systems, announces that through collaboration with NetComm Wireless, Skkynet’s Embedded Toolkit (ETK) is now available for installation on NetComm’s NTC-6200 series of gateways for wireless M2M connectivity, enabling industrial automation engineers and managers to establish secure, real-time connections between remote devices and existing control systems, using Skkynet’s SkkyHub™ service.

“Combining NetComm’s NTC-6200 platform with Skkynet’s SkkyHub Service means remote devices in virtually any location can now connect directly and securely to the cloud, enabling real-time monitoring, control, networking, and big data collection at a far lower total cost of ownership (TCO) than previously thought possible,” said Paul Thomas, President of Skkynet. “We are pleased to have the opportunity to work with NetComm Wireless to provide their customers and ours with this high-value solution.”

The NTC-6200 series of wireless routers connects to worldwide 3G networks at speeds of up to 14.4Mbps. With no dependence on a landline, they can be deployed in any location to allow remote access, monitoring and control of connected devices. Featuring Ethernet, serial (RS232/422/485), USB 2.0 and Modbus TCP connectivity, the NTC-6200 series can interface with a diverse range of equipment used in a wide variety of vertical applications. Optional features include PoE (Power over Ethernet), Zigbee support, a built-in GPS, and 3 multipurpose I/O ports.

SkkyHub provides secure, end-to-end bidirectional connectivity between the NTC-6200 series routers and end users at all levels, from operators and plant engineers to managers, analysts, and customers. The service is capable of handling over 50,000 data changes per second per client, at speeds just a few milliseconds over Internet latency. Secure by design, it requires no VPN, no open firewall ports, no special programming, and no additional hardware.

The SkkyHub service will be demonstrated at the Control System Integrators Association (CSIA) Annual Executive Conference in Washington DC, April 29 – May 2. The end-to-end solution offered by connecting NTC-6200 routers to SkkyHub addresses in a practical way many of the key questions to be raised in the conference agenda regarding innovation and improvement on the state of the art for industrial automation.

Skkynet’s SkkyHub Now Supports Modbus

/by

Data from devices using the Modbus protocol can now be made available in spreadsheets, databases, web browsers, or the Internet of Things (IoT).

Mississauga, Ontario, February 23, 2015 – Skkynet Cloud Systems, Inc. (“Skkynet” or “the Company”) (OTCQB:SKKY), a global leader in real-time cloud information systems, is pleased to announce that its SkkyHub™ service now supports Modbus, the world’s most widely used industrial network protocol. Data from any Modbus TCP slave device can now be viewed in a web browser, sent to big data analytics, logged to a database, fed to a spreadsheet, or connected to virtually any location on the IoT through SkkyHub.

“This is a significant advance in security and efficiency for the Industrial Internet of Things,” said Paul Thomas, President of Skkynet. “Management, engineering staff, and analytical teams can now conveniently access data from virtually any Modbus device, whether tucked away on the shop floor or installed somewhere out in the field.”

Data from Modbus devices is typically accessed by plant operators and engineers in conjunction with costly, complex, industrial SCADA systems. Adding the Modbus protocol to SkkyHub now offers a secure, efficient, and low-cost option for any authorized user to monitor and interact with Modbus-enabled equipment using off-the-shelf software like a web browser, database, or spreadsheet. This approach is particularly well-suited to mobile networks because it supports bandwidth-constrained networks, instantly propagating values as they change, with no polling overhead.

“Most people don’t believe SkkyHub is even possible at any price point.” says Thomas, “That is, until they spend 10 minutes trying our service.”

Security for each Modbus device is ensured through Skkynet’s unique outbound-only system architecture, which keeps all firewalls closed and does not expose any device or plant to the Internet. All connected devices are isolated from each other, such that even if someone gains unauthorized physical access to a connected device, they cannot detect any other device on the system.

Skkynet’s SkkyHub allows industrial and embedded systems to securely network live data in real time from any location. Secure by design, it requires no VPN, no open firewall ports, no special programming, and no additional hardware. It enables bidirectional supervisory control, integration, and sharing of data with multiple users, and real-time access to selected data sets in a web browser.
