IoT: from physical sensors to real-time insights

The Internet of Things (IoT) opens the door to valuable, real-time insights into your physical processes. At VDS, we go beyond simply offering smart software: we also develop our own hardware—such as the IoT Gateway—so you can be sure of a fully integrated solution. Whether you aim to optimize production processes, reduce energy consumption, or predict maintenance schedules, as a full-service partner we handle the entire process.
From the initial sensor selection and setting up the Azure environment to building dashboards and training your team, we ensure your IoT solution integrates seamlessly into your operations. That way, you can immediately benefit from your data and make faster, better-informed decisions.

Key Features

VDS Analytics goes well beyond merely presenting numbers. We look at your organization as a whole to determine which data is relevant, how it relates to your KPIs, and how you can use it to capitalize on opportunities and mitigate risks. We achieve this through interactive dashboards, custom reports, and predictive models that reveal trends and patterns.

Interactive dashboards

We translate complex data into user-friendly, interactive dashboards. This enables you to quickly spot trends, patterns, and bottlenecks. By viewing data from different perspectives, you gain a powerful tool for data-driven decision-making.

Condition monitoring en voorspellend onderhoud

With real-time alerts, you always stay on top of your most important KPIs. You receive instant notifications whenever a KPI crosses a predefined threshold—whether that’s a positive or negative deviation.

Predictive models

Our predictive models use historical and real-time data to detect patterns and generate accurate forecasts. This allows you to anticipate future developments and make well-founded decisions.

Custom reports

We deliver reports that perfectly match your business objectives. By filtering on the KPIs most relevant to you, you get a clear and reliable compass for both operational and strategic choices.

Fully integrated with Microsoft Azure and our IoT hardware

Fully integrated with Microsoft Azure and our IoT hardware

At VDS, we use Microsoft Azure as a robust backend for gathering, processing, and storing your sensor data. We also develop our own hardware to seamlessly connect your machines and sensors to the cloud—even when using industrial protocols like OPC UA or Modbus TCP. Thanks to our certified personnel, we can also install the hardware on-site, ensuring that every component is deployed professionally and safely. This connects everything, from production equipment and vehicles to energy consumers and environmental sensors.

From data to action
We don’t just set up the hardware and data processing; we also provide dashboards and alerts that offer immediately actionable insights. Whether you want to monitor KPIs, receive real-time alerts about malfunctions, or detect trends in energy consumption, we deliver an IoT solution that seamlessly aligns with your processes.

Iterative development and optimization
As with our other services (Analytics and Automation), we follow an iterative process. We begin with a proof of concept or pilot to test the hardware and software in your environment. We then refine the solution based on feedback, so you can see results quickly and continue to evolve over time.

Security and scalability first
Because IoT data is often critical to your business operations, we place strong emphasis on security and stability. We build on Azure’s scalable infrastructure and ensure that only authorized parties have access to sensitive data. This gives you a future-proof and secure solution that can grow alongside your organization without any issues.
