The least exciting aspect of IoT but the first challenge encountered in an IoT deployment is how to provision the infrastructure. RuBAN's ZTP architecture makes this simple

The above architecture delivers on Zero Touch Deployment of large numbers of IoT gateway devices and sensors in order to greatly reduce the engineering overhead of rollout of the IOT project. In the scenario where Intelligent Gateways are to be shipped to the field these devices need to be provisioned to access the network and access the sensors in their environment. RuBAN uses a call home mechanism where the device is shipped with a minimal bootstrap configuration. When the device is booted up in the field it calls home to RuBAN with its serial number looking for its profile. At the head end the configuration matching the serial number is found and then passed down to the device. The key point about this mechanism is that is performs ZTP through autonomous mode configuration whereby everything is sent down to the device locally before the configuration process is run. Then using applications on the device locally it executes the configuration. It has full flexibility to run prechecks before it decides to run, run incremental config updates, run full config changes, OS upgrades, firmware upgrades etc. It then can locally verify that everything was configured correctly and when it finishes a report is sent to the RuBAN server. IoT deployments often involve sending devices to remote locations such as railside tracks, if there is a network issue it is not feasible to be sending engineers with console cables to these devices to resolve issues, RuBAN enables you to embed the intelligence of your best engineer in every IoT network asset.
