PrismTech's Vortex technology picked up by Priva

BOSTON, MA – PrismTech, a company that specializes in software platforms for distributed systems, today announced that Priva has selected the Vortex intelligent data management platform to enhance its greenhouse climate-and-irrigation building automation control systems.

Priva, based in De Lier, the Netherlands, is an award-winning developer of innovative solutions for sustainable climate control and process management in building and horticultural greenhouse automation. The company has sites and training centers on every continent and its network extends to more than 100 countries.

“Vortex, with its robust end-to-end qualities-of-service capabilities and its ability to help us decouple our software—made it the right fit for our architecture,” said Priva lead architect Rachid El Masoudi. “Specifically, Vortex provides our systems with efficient, secure and interoperable real-time data sharing.”

Vortex provides real-time data sharing for devices and machines based on the Object Management Group's (OMG) Data-Distribution Service (DDS) standard. Vortex provides DDS implementations that can be used to support the wide range of device technologies, operating systems and programming languages required by Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) projects.

Per the release, Vortex’s capabilities will simplify the process of reconfiguring Priva’s greenhouse controllers so that all sensors are correctly matched with internal data channels.

“We welcome Priva to our growing list of global customers who are using Vortex in demanding real-time data-processing systems,” said Andrew Foster, Product Marketing Manage at PrismTech. “This is another example of the proliferation of Vortex into new and exciting IIoT markets such as building automation and agricultural systems.”
