CloudRail is a fully managed solution to acquire data from industrial environments, preprocess it locally, and send it to any cloud β Plug&Play. CloudRail works for greenfield as well as brownfield applications. It uses industry standards like OPC-UA to connect modern equipment, while old machines are retrofitted with secondary sensors. A database of over 12,000 sensor definitions combined with automated data transformation and device provisioning reduces the setup time for connecting a machine to the cloud from weeks to hours. CloudRail removes the hassles of sensor compatibility, communication protocols, data format, and connectivity to the cloud. As of August 2023, CloudRail is part of the Belden Group.
