Proximetry

Proximetry is a software platform designed to manage large-scale Internet of Things (IoT) deployments, particularly for industrial and critical infrastructure applications. It handles the entire lifecycle of connected devices, from initial discovery and registration to ongoing monitoring, firmware updates, and network optimization. The system is built to scale from thousands to over ten million devices, making it suitable for massive IoT implementations in sectors like energy, manufacturing, transportation, and smart cities.

The platform stands out through its network-agnostic architecture, meaning it can work with any communication protocol. It uses topology and quality-of-service aware algorithms to efficiently manage constrained bandwidth resources. Proximetry provides a web portal for deployment testing and offers comprehensive APIs for integration with existing business systems and dashboards. The solution is available through various channels including their own portal, partner platforms like Atmel Cloud and Itron Riva Cloud, and as enterprise installations for private cloud or data center deployments.

This tool primarily benefits IoT solution vendors, industrial companies, and utility providers who need to maintain large networks of performance-critical devices. Real-world use cases include managing smart grid infrastructure, monitoring industrial equipment in manufacturing plants, maintaining connected transportation systems, and overseeing municipal utility networks where reliable device management is essential for operational continuity.
