Significant features added to Akenza’s new IoT platform

ZÜRICH, 30-Jun-2021 — /EPR INTERNET NEWS/ — Akenza, a leading Internet of Things (IoT) platform, is proud to announce the launch of its brand new platform. This is yet another step to realize their vision towards employing IoT across markets and industries. They are convinced that by significantly reducing the effort and complexity companies face when creating IoT solutions, they can lead the IoT evolution towards broader market applicability. The number of possible use cases to connect the world around us is endless, but it is a matter of awareness, cost, and complexity.

IoT is a vast network of devices and technologies that can communicate and exchange data via the Internet. Not only limited to computing devices such as smartphones and laptops, the term IoT refers to any technology with Internet connectivity to send or receive data. IoT technologies can range from wearable heart-rate monitors, automated thermostats, smart cars to sensors for manufacturing equipment.

The akenza platform enables businesses to introduce innovative and digital IoT solutions rapidly. Solutions built with akenza span any vertical, be it smart city, smart building, or industry. The highly volatile technological landscape necessitates solutions that enable an agile approach to development and innovations.

Therefore, akenza proudly supports digital accessibility, which is why it is premised upon the enhanced relationship between IoT devices and accessible digital experiences. Furthermore, their flexible, software-only platform enables IoT developers to develop smart solutions on a solid technological foundation.

Over the last few years, they have learned a lot about the IoT ecosystem, the much-desired enterprise features, its simplicity, and its self-service needs. So they listened and delivered!

The significant features of their brand new platform include –

Connectivity-as-a-Service
Managing a portfolio of devices across various connectivity platforms may require additional administrative effort and complexity. With their offering of Connectivity-as-a-service, IoT developers, CTOs, and R&D Heads no longer need to worry about separate network operator contracts. Instead, simply choosing the best connectivity, depending upon the region, can enable them to connect their devices to akenza. Furthermore, this IoT platform allows them to manage their connectivity portfolio with minimal effort by offering centralized connectivity management.

No-Code Data Processing
Being in total charge of IoT data streams is imperative to generate valuable information from raw sensor data. With No-Code Data Flows, IoT developers only need to define their data processing chain once and apply it to as many devices as you want.

Rule Engine
With the rule engine feature, they can process and analyze data from multiple devices simultaneously and trigger actions based on sensor data. These actions can include sending email or SMS notifications, downlinks, or aggregating data without requiring any coding skills.

Advanced User Management
Various stakeholders such as project managers and developers are involved during the lifecycle of an IoT project. With akenza’s built-in role-based access control, they have full access rights, allowing them to collaborate with all the parties involved securely.

Device Type Studio
akenza allows developers to choose from multiple devices and create a device type with a web-based device type studio. They are bound to benefit from a device-type library with a payload decoder/encoder for up-/downlinks. The well-known off-the-shelf IoT devices are already integrated with their open-source device library, and new devices are continually added.

Private Cloud
akenza can be deployed on the existing cloud, such as AWS, Microsoft Azure, or Google Cloud Platform.

Visualizations
The akenza platform allows IoT developers to make more out of data by providing insightful data visualization. The built-in data visualization offers a direct overview of the data from computing devices, connects easily with dashboard builders such as Grafana, or uses one of the plugs and plays Business Intelligence Modules.

With all these features to support the development of IoT applications, they look forward to getting you started in your IoT journey. Visit their new website.

PayPerHead Set to Begin $3 Per Head Until Super Bowl Promo

San Jose, Costa Rica, 2021-Jun-28 — /EPR INTERNET NEWS/ — Sportsbook software company PayPerHead is about to release its most extended promotion of the year. The company’s Super Bowl Promo begins in July and lasts until the 2022 NFL Championship.

The National Football League has added an extra game this season, pushing both the playoffs and the 2022 Super Bowl forward by a week. First scheduled for February 6, 2022, Super Bowl LVI now happens on February 13.

Per a University of Villanova study, 93% of U.S.-based sports bettors are interested in betting on the NFL. The same report said that 13% of American adults, or 33.2 million, said they planned on making a bet on an NFL game during the 2020 season.

The study also stated that 34% of American adults planned on making NFL wagers through an online sportsbook. The study estimates total non-recorded sports betting revenue at $70 billion per year.

PayPerHead product manager Nate Johnson said internal research is in line with the Villanova study. “The study said 69% of core sports bettors are male while most are between the ages of 23 through 34. Our agents have told me their players love the NFL and, yes, most are male and fit into the study’s age demographic.”

When asked why such a long promotion, Johnson said that wasn’t the plan. “Heading into 2021, we thought we might revert to our normal promotion schedule. We offered agents the $3 per head until Super Bowl promo in 2020 to help bookie software agents get by during the pandemic. It was such a success in 2020, though, that we decided to run it again this year.”

Johnson said the company has an advantage in the industry due to its proprietary software. “We use our software, which means we can integrate with third-party platforms much easier than other organizations.”

“Also, we only provide software. We don’t double as a sportsbook, which means bookie agents mustn’t worry about us stealing their players,” he said.

Johnson added that PayPerHead doesn’t hold back during their promotions even if it lasts for more than half a year. “When agents sign-up for the $3 per head until Super Bowl Promo, they can offer all add-on platforms, including Premium Props, the Premium Gaming platform with 3D options, and Live+. They can also use the Agent Payment Solution where they and players can deposit online into their accounts.”

“We want to develop long-lasting relationships. We’ve been around since 1997. So we know what it takes to run a successful, individually owned, online sportsbook. All we care about is helping bookies make money and run successful sportsbook companies,” Johnson said.
