Prometheus & OpenMetrics

Transform data into actionable intelligence

Critical insights with Prometheus.

Unwired Edge Cloud utilizes the powerful Prometheus/OpenMetrics API to deliver meticulous time-series monitoring, focusing exclusively on essential metrics that define the health and efficiency of rail operations. This includes tracking of health indicators, bandwidth usage, performance metrics, status counters, and histograms. By centralizing this data, our platform enables precise analysis and immediate response capabilities, allowing rail operators to maintain optimal service levels and swiftly address any emerging issues.

All devices in real-time view

Granular telemetry across your network

Our telemetry functionalities provide operators with real-time insights into modem performance, GPS locations, WiFi connectivity, and overall device health. By capturing and analyzing events as they occur, our system ensures operators can proactively manage and resolve issues, minimizing disruptions and enhancing the reliability of services provided to passengers

Unwired Edge Cloud

Easily solve real-world problems

SIM Card Issues

Easily identify common SIM Card related problems.

SIM cards are often the primary cause of network disruptions. Common problems include connecting to the wrong network near borders and experiencing bandwidth limits not stipulated in provider contracts. Typically, these issues are only recognized after causing significant disruptions. With our advanced metrics, you can promptly identify these issues and set alerts for recurring SIM card problem.

Complete network insight at your fingertips

Bandwidth constraints, latency issues, and packet loss significantly impact service quality. Our observability tools not only identify and address these problems quickly but also provide comprehensive network data. This ensures operators have all the information needed to maintain optimal connectivity, preemptively solving problems before they affect service.

Ensure device reliability and performance

Monitoring CPU, memory, and disk usage is crucial for the longevity and efficiency of operational devices. Our system provides detailed metrics to assess and manage the physical health of your devices, ensuring they operate at peak performance and reliability, thus minimizing downtime and maximizing efficiency
