StoreButler from the cloud
The cloud and IoT platform StoreButler from q.beyond makes it easier for retailers to use digital technologies in their stores. Instead of having to connect and control each new solution separately with the company's IT, StoreButler handles the entire data exchange between systems, end devices, sensors and apps. At launch, partners such as Neptune, Snabble, ReAct and Pricer are supporting the platform with their retail solutions. In addition, q.beyond provides self-developed retail solutions via the platform.
StoreButler is based on a combination of various cloud and Internet of Things (IoT) technologies developed at q.beyond. The main components are cloud technology and an edge device in each store, the StoreButler Box. It connects the local end devices and sensors with the central control system in the cloud. The StoreButler supplies the digital store infrastructure with product data from the retailer's merchandise management system via standard interfaces and processes the sensor and device data from the points of sale.
