Atos announced a partnership with Centerity systems to include its CSM2 software platform, a Dell NativeEdge certified ISV, in the Atos SmartEdge for Business Outcomes offering. With Centerity?s CSM2 and Atos? expertise in collecting data at the edge and integrating AI-trained models and hardware components within complex IT infrastructures from the edge to the cloud, using the Dell NativeEdge edge operations software platform, businesses can further connect, secure, monitor and optimize large distributed edge environments such as retail, hospitality and banking.

Via this innovative solution, enterprises will be able to reduce support tickets caused by IT/OT edge devices by up to 60%, reduce downtime as well as loss of revenue due to smart automatic remediation and failures prediction, and hence, driving costs and carbon emission down while preventing and predicting maintenance-related issues. The many businesses that can benefit from this solution include retail clients with thousands of muti-vendor points of sales, self-ordering kiosks and cash registers, telcos deploying network equipment, theme park operators, industries with heavy machine control systems like defense & public safety, energy distributors and video-monitored banking facilities. Companies in these and other sectors are looking for innovative solutions like Atos SmartEdge, which can secure, optimize and manage ever increasing complex and large-scale edge environments.

Atos and Centerity have worked together to add additional automation to Atos SmartEdge, reinforcing its remediation capabilities and enabling the secure, automatic provision of settings, configurations, and applications directly on the devices. From the cloud, customers can remotely configure or update thousands of devices at the far edge. Atos SmartEdge is integrated with Dell NativeEdge, an edge operations software platform that centralizes deployment and management of edge infrastructure and applications across geographically distributed locations.

For more than a decade, Atos and Dell Technologies have been jointly developing innovative solutions to help customers succeed in the data era. Atos SmartEdge brings the advantages of cloud architecture to the edge and far edge to deliver AI-based business value augmented with end-to-end automated deployment, monitoring and management.
