About The Customer
Exltech is a solutions integrator that simplifies IoT, big data, analytics, and applications for businesses throughout Australia. As one of Telstra’s longest-operating and leading distribution partners, Exltech makes navigating IoT and big data solutions and systems simple and hassle-free for its partners and customers. The company is a consulting firm with a difference. As a solution integrator and telecommunications data distribution expert, Exltech recognized a gap in the Australian IoT and big data market. Although there were plenty of sensor vendors, IoT platforms, big data solutions, and apps, there was no one company that could put them all together. Exltech took command of the situation by working with leading solution partners.
The Challenge
Exltech, a solutions integrator and telecommunications data distribution expert, identified a gap in the Australian IoT and big data market. While there were plenty of sensor vendors, IoT platforms, big data solutions, and apps, there was no single company that could integrate them all. Customers were seeking end-to-end industry-vertical IoT and big data solutions and needed help solving business problems with their data. They wanted solution partners that deliver a case study driven IoT and big data approach. Exltech aimed to fill this gap by building an ecosystem of reliable, secure, and case study driven sensors and data platforms for its customers.
The Solution
Exltech partnered with Software AG and adopted its Cumulocity IoT platform to integrate IoT and big data solutions into clients’ infrastructures. Cumulocity IoT is device-, protocol-, deployment-, application-, and use case-agnostic, allowing organizations complete freedom to generate value. Apama is used to handle the big data with its streaming analytics capabilities, and Exltech complements it with pre-designed algorithms. Because of Cumulocity IoT’s use-case experience in utilities, smart cities, and transport, and its ease of use for engineers, it was perfectly suited to Exltech’s business model. In one demo, Exltech was able to connect IoT devices in less than a day using Cumulocity IoT, a task that a competitor had failed to complete in three months.

Turning A Stadium Into A Smart Building
Honeywell created what it called the “intelligent system” for the National Stadium in Beijing, China, turning the venue for the opening and closing events at the 2008 Summer Olympics into a “smart building.” Designed by highly controversial artist Ai Weiwei, the “Bird’s Nest” remains one of the most impressive feats of stadium architecture in the world. The 250,000 square meter structure housed more than 100,000 athletes and spectators at a time. To accommodate such capacity, China turned to Honeywell’s EBI Integrated Building Management System to create an integrated “intelligent system” for improved building security, safety and energy efficiency.

Smart Street Light Network (Copenhagen)
Key stakeholders are taking a comprehensive approach to rethinking smart city innovation. City leaders have collaborated through partnerships involving government, research institutions and solution providers. The Copenhagen Solutions Lab is one of the leading organizations at the forefront of this movement. By bringing together manufacturers with municipal buyers, the Copenhagen Solutions Lab has catalyzed the development and deployment of next-generation smart city innovations. Copenhagen is leveraging this unique approach to accelerate the implementation of smart city solutions. One of the primary focus areas is LED street lighting.
Case Study
Airport SCADA Systems Improve Service Levels
Modern airports are one of the busiest environments on Earth and rely on process automation equipment to ensure service operators achieve their KPIs. Increasingly airport SCADA systems are being used to control all aspects of the operation and associated facilities. This is because unplanned system downtime can cost dearly, both in terms of reduced revenues and the associated loss of customer satisfaction due to inevitable travel inconvenience and disruption.

IoT-based Fleet Intelligence Innovation
Speed to market is precious for DRVR, a rapidly growing start-up company. With a business model dependent on reliable mobile data, managers were spending their lives trying to negotiate data roaming deals with mobile network operators in different countries. And, even then, service quality was a constant concern.
Case Study
Buoy Status Monitoring with LoRa
The Netherlands are well-known for their inland waterways, canals, sluices and of course port activities. The Dutch Ministry of Infrastructure indicates that there are thousands of buoys and fixed items in and near water environments that would profit from IoT monitoring. One of the problems with buoys for example, is that they get hit by ships and the anchor cable breaks. Without connectivity, it takes quite some time to find out that something has happened with that buoy. Not to mention the costs of renting a boat to go to the buoy to fix it. Another important issue, is that there is no real-time monitoring of the buoys at this moment. Only by physically visiting the object on the water, one gains insight in its status.
