SixSq’s Nuvla saves time and money by delivering software solutions that allow businesses to streamline their IoT edge operations in a wide range of sectors. Customers benefit from a marketplace of business applications while vendors access an easy way to monetise their apps. The NuvlaEdge software turns any computer into a smart edge device. Nuvla.io also provides a Private App Store, with the same convenience as Apple’s App Store, but for deploying apps at the edge and in the cloud. As long as your app is containerised, you can deploy it with Nuvla. Benefits include reduced costs, data sovereignty and business continuity. SixSq is an Ekinops company. https://www.ekinops.com/
