Solita, the technology, data, and design company, and Crosser, a leading provider of intelligent processes and automation for data integration and industrial IoT, have announced partnership to provide a powerful hybrid data integration solution. By combining low-code data processing across edge and cloud environments with advanced analytics, the companies are enabling businesses to significantly enhance operational efficiency and shorten time-to-insight.
By combining Solita's expertise in data strategy, AI, and cloud infrastructures with Crosser's user-friendly design and intelligent processing capabilities, companies can now respond more rapidly and effectively to changing conditions. The Crosser platform provides next-gen data integration and automation across edge and cloud environments. The real-time insights and advanced strategies for both industrial IoT and Enterprise settings delivered by the platform add value to traditional ETL, iPaaS and event stream analytics solutions.
“We are excited to welcome Crosser as our partner. Across industries—from manufacturing to energy and mobility—businesses need a comprehensive approach to data to unlock the benefits of fast-developing technology. Our collaboration with Crosser’s cutting-edge technology enables significant improvements in the acquisition, flow, and quality of data, and enables better central observability and monitoring,” commented Bart Schrooten , Technology Partnership Manager at Solita.
With over 2,200 digital transformation professionals across 10 countries, Solita delivers cutting-edge connectivity, cloud and data services to customers throughout Europe.
Next-gen data processing and automation
Many companies are struggling to bridge the gap between operational technology and information technology, OT and IT, in the best possible way. Crosser's platform enables organisations to process real-time data from hard-to-reach operational technologies (OT), turning raw data into valuable insights where it’s most needed: close to the source, within its own firewall or in a true hybrid setting. Unlike traditional cloud-based solutions, which rely on remote connections, it allows companies to respond quickly and build scalable yet centrally governed solutions in edge-to-cloud continuum.
“Our partnership with Solita enables us to offer companies not only the technology, but also the strategic guidance needed to leverage data effectively,” said Mikael Samuelsson, Director of Strategic Alliances at Crosser. “While AI development is becoming increasingly accessible, companies often lack the experience and knowledge to correctly deploy the technology in long-term, sustainable strategies for business growth. Solita offers end-to-end solutions that can help with this.”
“The partnership brings valuable benefits especially to the industrial sector, particularly in manufacturing and logistics, where IT and OT integration is often complex due to heterogenous technology landscape, limited interoperability and security concerns. For example, in manufacturing, companies can simplify factory systems integration, data acquisition, pre-processing and ML inference close to OT systems with easy-to-adopt experience, significantly shortening time needed for use cases realization. The platform automates maintenance scheduling, reducing downtime and ensuring smooth operations. There is huge potential in helping companies leverage their data and work more efficiently," commented Director Antti Haanpää, who leads the company’s industrial domain solutions.
