Bridging the gap between IT and OT

GIB joins the io-key ecosystem as an SAP integrator and IIoT specialist. The io-key network for remote monitoring connects 10,000 sensors from more than 200 manufacturers. In the future, GIB will use the io-key's connectivity and cloud environment to collect, aggregate and transfer sensor data to the SAP environment.

This allows important data on plant and machine statuses or on the flow of materials to be recorded decentrally and used to optimize operational processes. The io-key closes the communication gap to the decentralized locations. This significantly increases the number and range of possible use cases.

The solution is similar in principle to the on-premises workflow that GIB has already been able to implement for several use cases. What is new is that fill levels, temperatures and other sensor data are transferred to SAP modules via the cloud and evaluated there.
