Since the beginning of 2020, Phoenix Contact has been offering an even easier way for small and medium-sized companies to address the topic of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT): Proficloud.io. Previously, the industrial company already offered a cloud platform (Proficloud.net), which proved to everyone in the company, partners and customers that the topic of cloud in the industrial environment has relevance and arouses interest.
The new cloud platform focuses on everything a cloud platform needs. Whether it is continuous further development, publicly and easily accessible information about the platform and smart services, or a special focus on usability – Proficloud.io combines all these things to make entry into the diverse world of the Industrial Internet of Things as simple as possible and promising in the long term.
Some hardware devices from the Phoenix Contact range can already be integrated into the platform, but devices that are not produced by Phoenix Contact can also be used on Proficloud.io.
Proficloud.net will be deprecated end of September 2022. Proficloud.io will be the replacement for Proficloud.net
To see that the switch is really worth it, we have listed the main benefits here and, of course, created and made available the migration guides for the Time Series Data Service and the Impulse Analytics Service.
The discontinuation of Proficloud.net does not affect the PLCnext store. You can use your existing account, licenses and devices also after Proficloud.net is switched off.
