ZEDEDA Signs Strategic OEM Supplier Agreement With Agora to Accelerate Deployment of Edge and IoT Solutions for the Energy Market

  • ZEDEDA to provide edge orchestration capabilities for Agora’s IoT platform and edge computing deployments
  • Agora to become a preferred global reseller partner for ZEDEDA’s solution in the energy market, including integration with Agora’s industry-leading IoT platform
  • Integration augments Agora’s IoT platform by together solving the challenges of remotely provisioning and securing heterogeneous devices and applications, managing the full deployment lifecycle and accelerating data collection, edge analytics and transmission to the Agora cloud, along with supporting any additional on-prem or cloud requirements
  • Strategic partnership capitalizes on Agora’s domain expertise in the oil and gas and renewable energy industries, while ZEDEDA’s open orchestration foundation delivers flexibility, security and scalability for both brownfield and greenfield IoT and edge computing applications

ZEDEDA, the leader in orchestration for the distributed edge, announced an integration with Agora that provides customers in the oil and gas and renewable energy industries with full lifecycle management capabilities for their edge deployments as part of Agora’s overall IoT solution portfolio.

“Agora has years of domain expertise in optimizing operational efficiency and productivity in the oil and gas and renewable energy industry, while ZEDEDA’s infrastructure foundation delivers flexibility and interoperability for customers to future-proof their deployments.”

The ability to pull timely actionable insights from edge environments like oil rigs, wells, refineries, wind turbines and solar farms can potentially save millions of dollars by reducing equipment failure and safety issues, in addition to maintaining regulatory compliance. However, these environments are often very remote locations and may have limited staff on site. Data-center orchestration solutions are not applicable because of cost, footprint, security and scale requirements, plus they require IT skills not often available in the field. Addressing these challenges requires tools specifically architected to simplify managing and securing remote edge infrastructure at scale.

“This partnership capitalizes on the strengths of both companies,” said ZEDEDA founder and CEO Said Ouissal. “Agora has years of domain expertise in optimizing operational efficiency and productivity in the oil and gas and renewable energy industry, while ZEDEDA’s infrastructure foundation delivers flexibility and interoperability for customers to future-proof their deployments.”

ZEDEDA’s cloud-based orchestration solution helps energy customers update their operations so they can run legacy workloads such as SCADA, DCS, HMI and Historian alongside modern containerized applications such as AI and ML. The solution leverages the open-source EVE-OS from the Linux Foundation, which prevents vendor lock-in and unifies an open ecosystem of hardware, software and services. Security is at the forefront of every deployment, backed by ZEDEDA’s industry-leading zero trust security model spanning silicon to cloud. This gives customers the confidence to connect edge assets to Agora’s platform and any other required on-prem or cloud-based backend.
