SimpleSoft's SimpleIoTSimulator now supports Modbus
Modbus over TCP Support for Industrial IoT Simulations
MOUNTAIN VIEW, CA–(November 10, 2015) – SimpleSoft, the leading provider of network and IoT management simulation tools, today announced version 3.0 of SimpleIoTSimulator, which allows users to develop, test, train, demonstrate and support IoT platforms for today’s growing IoT sensor and gateway deployments. | ||
Among other improvements, the new release includes support for Modbus over TCP. Simulated Modbus server can support multiple slaves, each with its own address map and data. Support for dynamism for the values returned, along with a learning application that can poll data from real servers and record data for subsequent playback is included. In addition to Modbus, the simulator supports, CoAP, MQTT, MQTTSN, MQTT Brokers and HTTP/s clients and servers with REST. | ||
“As support for Modbus is important for Industrial IoT applications, we have continued to enhance our simulator offerings,” said Sudhir Pendse, SimpleSoft CEO. “Our customers can now simulate thousands of sensors to carry out scalability, performance, and pre-deployment testing of their Utilities, Mining, Transportation, and Agricultural IoT platform solutions.” | ||
SimpleIoTSimulator can dramatically reduce test infrastructure setup costs by simulating thousands of sensors and gateways on a single machine. Simulated environments can then be used during application development; while doing functional, scalability, error and pre-deployment testing; when duplicating customer issues; and for training and sales demonstrations. |
