Industrial IoT edge software provider ClearBlade announced the Lion Nebula Release of their IoT software. Details of the release updates by product are listed below.
IOT CORE
- JWT time skew support – To ensure JWT tokens are valid ClearBlade is enforcing a ten minute bidirectional time skew. As a result, any compromised tokens are quickly made invalid and communication between device and cloud is protected.
- Enhanced PubSub performance – New native-level integrations for Google PubSub communication allow for large-scale registries to run in highly performant modes. This feature, available to IoT enterprise customers, results in huge cloud cost savings when compared to data volume-based pricings.
- Monitoring and Logging integrations – Built-in logging tools for Google Cloud Monitoring and Logging for seamless IoT Core migrations. This reduces IoT solution management complexity and enables monitoring of underlying IoT Core infrastructure with native cloud tools.
- Marketplace improvements – Continued improvements to make marketplace interactions more transparent and easier for end users to connect billing and monitoring. Additional improvements allow for many developers to work within shared registries while all are billed to a common account.
IOT ENTERPRISE AND EDGE
- MySQL and MariaDB support – Improvements in the MySQL and MariaDB external database connector allow for the latest supported driver features and TLS encrypted communication. This ensures secure communication between multi-cloud architectures and modern capability availability.
- MongoDB Atlas driver update – Replacement of the current MongoDB Atlas driver with the latest release to enable connectivity to the latest MongoDB releases, enabling increased performance and connection speeds.
INTELLIGENT ASSETS
- Azure Active Directory Sign-on – It’s now easier to manage users who access Intelligent Assets with direct integration to Azure Active Directory. Microsoft Enterprise grade director access can now control who has access to view and edit field IoT assets.
