To help users employ the Internet of Things (IoT) to solve business challenges, Siemens announced Nov. 29 the launch of its MindSphere Partner Program, which it reports is newest element of its open, cloud-based IoT operating system. This global program equips partners in operational technology (OT) and informational technology (IT) areas with the tools needed to help solve real business and technical challenges faced by customers through the transformational capabilities of MindSphere and IoT technology.
“Siemens’ open platform as a service (PaaS) approach, combined with its enhanced partner program, provides key resources to jointly solve problems for our customers,” says Paul Albada Jelgersma, senior VP and global head of Atos Services for Siemens MindSphere. “We're already engaged in joint solutions for industrial customers, and the incremental investments in this program only help accelerate success.”
