The middleware features data from edge assets – including sensors, actuators, wireless sensor networks, RFID systems, imagery devices and other edge systems and devices.

EdgeFrontier v4.0 updates include significant architectural enhancements to the easily configurable middleware product. The enhancements mirror v4.0 enhancements recently made to the Augusta Systems SensorBridge product line. SensorBridge is a suite of Microsoft Visual Studio software components for building and managing intelligent networks, systems, and applications.

SensorBridge and EdgeFrontier, along with Augusta Systems SensorPort intelligent network appliance, provide platforms for the intelligent convergence of data from the multitude of diverse edge assets that exist at the edge of enterprise networks.

Patrick Esposito, president and COO of Augusta Systems, said: With EdgeFrontier v4.0 middleware installed on servers, routers, and other network appliances, enterprises have even greater capabilities to connect with and control sensors and devices that reside at the edge of the network. EdgeFrontier is a key building block of intelligent enterprise networks.
