SilverLink Sensor Network enables developers to utilize previously unavailable or now-enriched data to deliver new applications and services for utilities and energy consumers, at up to 10x the speed and 1/10th the cost of legacy utility IT infrastructure.
Specifically, the platform produces near real-time analytics of fast moving data, and historical data, across a variety of parameters, such as temporal, geospatial and sensor-type, helping utilities and application developers to extract deeper and actionable insights into energy usage patterns as they are happening.
Silver Spring Networks Software Architecture and Analytics vice president Charles Sum said the use of new cloud data service will enable SilverLink Sensor Network to provide customers with insight to significantly increase energy efficiency, conservation and provide a higher level of customer service.
"With MongoDB’s industry-leading NoSQL position and Silver Spring’s robust ecosystem, the partnership will bring the next generation of apps and developers to leverage the power of the SilverLink Sensor Network," Sum added.
MongoDB CEO Max Schireson said, "The database standard for modern application development, MongoDB is at the forefront of data management solutions enabling M2M applications like the SilverLink Sensor Network that meet the needs of a connected utility ecosystem."
MongoDB is currently used by thousands of organizations worldwide for operational and analytical big data, content management and delivery, mobile and social infrastructure, user data management and data hub.
