From the sensor to the boardroom. End-to-end IIoT architecture.
TRACIO designs and delivers production-grade IIoT architectures — from the silicon on the floor to the platform in the cloud. Connectivity, edge compute, sensor fusion, security to IEC 62443, and integration with the enterprise systems your business already runs on.
Devices speak. The edge thinks. The cloud decides.
The architectural pattern is universal. The engineering choices inside each layer determine whether the system ships, scales, and survives audit.
Layer 1 · Devices & sensors
Temperature, humidity, vibration, pressure, flow, gas, current, vision, location. Silicon from STM, Bosch Sensortec, TE Connectivity, Honeywell, NXP, Nordic, Espressif, u-blox, Quectel, Sierra Wireless.
Layer 2 · Edge gateways
Protocol translation (Modbus, OPC UA, BACnet, KNX → MQTT / AMQP), edge inference, OT/IT segmentation, store-and-forward, fleet management. Built on Linux IoT, Azure IoT Edge, AWS Greengrass, Balena, or BalenaOS.
Layer 3 · Platform & cloud
Azure IoT Hub, AWS IoT Core, Google Cloud IoT, ThingsBoard, Cumulocity (Software AG), PTC ThingWorx, Siemens MindSphere — benchmarked against your data-residency, cost, and integration needs.
Right radio. Right protocol. Right place.

Iridium · Swarm · Astrocast · Skylo
Global, no-coverage-required IoT for maritime, aviation, mining, oil and gas, and remote infrastructure.
OT/IT convergence done safely.
IIoT programmes fail audit, not deployment. TRACIO designs to IEC 62443 (industrial cybersecurity) from day one — zero-trust device identity, hardware secure elements (TPM 2.0), signed firmware with secure boot, network segmentation aligned to Purdue, encrypted transport, and SIEM integration.
- IEC 62443-2-1 / -2-4 / -3-3 / -4-1 awareness
- NIST CSF, ISO 27001, SOC 2 alignment
- Purdue Model network segmentation
- HSM, TPM 2.0, secure boot, signed firmware
- Zero-trust device identity with X.509 / SPIFFE
- SIEM integration (Splunk, Sentinel, Chronicle)
- GDPR / HIPAA / 21 CFR Part 11 data flows
Independent across every major IIoT platform.
