Powered by Nutanix's Xi IoT Platform, Solution
to Improve Supply Chain and Logistics Operations in Real-time by
Leveraging AI, IoT, and Edge Computing
Nutanix, Inc. (NASDAQ: NTNX), a leader in enterprise cloud
computing, announced today a partnership with Hardis Group, a
consulting, digital services and software publishing company, to
deliver Vision Insights powered by Xi IoT, an innovative solution
to manage supply chain operations efficiency. Available now, Vision
Insights powered by Xi IoT is a supply chain optimization solution
comprised of Hardis Group Vision Insights software running as a
container on the Nutanix Xi IoT platform. This solution will help
companies harness the potential of cognitive services (image and
voice recognition), IoT, edge computing, and machine learning
technologies to dramatically improve efficiency, traceability, and
safety of logistics and supply chain operations in warehouses,
factories and distribution centers.
In a new survey of 2,650 IT decision-makers around the world by
Vanson Bourne, commissioned by Nutanix, IoT and edge computing
ranked highest among other high-impact technologies and trends as
having a “significant impact” overall on respondents’ businesses.
In addition, AI and IoT will have a strong impact on supply chain
management operations and according to Gartner “by 2023, at least
50 percent of large global companies will be using AI, advanced
analytics and IoT in supply chain operations.”1
Vision Insights powered by Xi IoT allows Hardis Group’s Vision
Insight customers to get easy traceability of assets through
real-time image monitoring and recognition. For example, sensor
data from cameras, fixed or embedded on systems such as an
automatic guided vehicle (AGV) or cart, will be ingested into the
Xi IoT platform through data pipelines and passed to Vision
Insights for AI inferencing at the edge. This enables the creation
of a digital twin of the warehouse and real-time analysis of a
situation, which can include comprehensive visibility of a specific
logistics process flow, number of pallets incorrectly positioned,
wet or damaged package detection, or an operator not equipped with
proper safety equipment. Any anomalies in the image recognition are
sent to the Hardis Group cloud for deep learning purposes and the
entire edge platform is managed by the Xi IoT SaaS management.
By bringing this new solution to market with Hardis Group as
part of their new Vision Insights and IoT Insights programs,
Nutanix helps its customers address common supply chain operations
challenges such as efficiency, traceability and safety. Key
benefits of this solution include:
- Ability to centrally deploy, secure, monitor and manage the
lifecycle of supply chain applications and AI models across
thousands of edge locations
- Capability to seamlessly work with existing remote camera
deployments for a quick path to ROI
- Support for a large variety of edge hardware devices to
accommodate nearly any logistics facility
By partnering with Nutanix’s Xi IoT platform, Hardis Group was
able to focus on the business logic behind their Vision Insights
program, and dramatically decrease the time to develop the
application, go-to-market, onboard and prove ROI to its customers,
as well as drastically improve IoT security, app debuggability and
manageability.
“Historically, warehouse and supply chain managers have had to
rely on manual processes to track warehouse logistics. With our
joint solution, we’re helping customers improve the logistics
performance in their factories, including upstream and downstream
of their production lines, from the moment their components and raw
materials arrive on-site, to storage and shipment of finished
products. Customers can now seamlessly track and control routine
processes through automation and IoT to improve efficiency,
traceability and safety,” said Satyam Vaghani, Senior Vice
President and General Manager of AI and IoT at Nutanix. “This
partnership will bring better management of customer's logistics
flows by leveraging AI, advanced analytics and IoT to improve
supply chain operations.”
“When we started developing this solution in the cloud, we
quickly realized we needed a partner who was able to operationalize
this at industrial scale at the edge. Nutanix and their Xi IoT
platform was the right partner to assist us in doing so,” said
Nicolas Odet, CEO of Hardis Group. “By working with Nutanix, we
were able to drastically reduce the time this innovative solution
was brought to market for our customers and help them accelerate
their supply chain and digital transformation. We’re excited to
continue working with Nutanix to scale and deploy these solutions
worldwide.”
