ALASKA Features
Automate Peace of Mind with ALASKA
Alaska manages the entire life cycle of a device, from commissioning to decommissioning, including configuration, updates, and end-to-end security. Paired with IOWA, IoTerop's products enable two-way communication between the device and the cloud, meaning organizations can reduce (if not eliminate) the need to physically access a device once it's on the field.
Device Lifecycle Management
Complete lifecycle management
Manage every stage of a device's lifecycle, including commissioning, bootstrap, firmware updates, and much more
Custom metadata
Create custom properties and associate them to your assets, enabling users to better identify or sort devices later on
Grouping capabilities
Clicking boxes individually is a thing of the past. Organize your devices as you see fit and trigger bulk operations
Device twin creation & management
Rely on ALASKA's automated representation of your device or create your own to fit your operational needs
Operations Management & Monitoring
Data collection
Collect any data gathered by a device's sensors. Store the data in your own custom Objects or in Objects defined in the LwM2M Object registry
Monitoring & alerts
Send alerts if a device's behavior matches with its set monitoring rules
Firmware over the air (FOTA) updates
Remotely update your devices to fix security breaches or enable new features
Push notifications
Automatically send data to a targeted endpoint using REST API, HTTP Webhooks, or MQTT
Device configuration
Apply generic or customized settings on your whole fleet of devices through a single pane of glass
File server
Store files like firmware update packages to simplify and secure the file exchange flow
Communication
Seamless UDP/TCP transport switch
ALASKA supports dynamic switches between UDP and TCP to optimize transmissions based on data type or size
Wide encoding support
Optimize your data footprint through a wide range of payload encoding formats including, CBOR, SenML JSON, SenML CBOR, LwM2M CBOR, TLV, etc.
End-to-End Security
Transport & application security
Ensure end-to-end security from a device to the cloud with OSCORE. Add another layer of encryption when using TLS/DTLS
Session resumption & connection ID
Accelerate re-authentication procedures to reduce data and power-heavy exchanges between a device and ALASKA
Bootstrap & credential management
Ensure only you have access to a device from the first time it's powered on. Change security keys as needed
User and Tenant Management
Multi-tenancy management
Set up different accounts in ALASKA and handle their hierarchy to match your organizational or commercial needs
Cost explorer
Display a monthly forecast of active tenant storage and data consumption, alerting the user if the forecast will reach the contractual threshold
Users & roles
Limit risk by defining which users have which permission to access different parts of ALASKA
Customized roles
Create customized users and choose which permissions to grant
Infrastructure
Micro-service architecture
Deploy your fleet on a platform that has innovation, modularity, and scalability in mind
Connect via GUI or API
Use ALAKSA's user-friendly interface to manage devices, or integrate it into another platform with APIs
Distributed infrastructure
Keep your infrastructure close to your local market, or deploy anywhere in the world on any cloud provider
Infrastructure agnostic
ALASKA is ready to be deployed on any Kubernetes-based infrastructure, whether it is on the cloud or on-premise
