Delivering a Flexible Remote Management Solution in the Embedded Market

Taipei, Taiwan, November 27, 2012 - Advantech (2395.TW), the leading embedded platform and integration services provider, announces the release of the Linux version of SUSIAccess 2.0, an innovative remote device management software preloaded in all Advantech embedded solutions, allowing efficient remote monitoring, quick recovery & backup, and real-time remote configuration. The launch of the Linux version of SUSIAccess 2.0 provides System Integrators more flexible options for creating a more intelligent and interconnected embedded computing solution.

According to an IDC survey, there will be 25 billion smart devices and intelligent systems in operation around the world by 2020, creating a future prototype for the intelligent city. "Intelligent Systems" combined with the "Internet of Things" will drive the next phase of the embedded device market. Another survey by VDC points out that currently more than 1/3 of embedded systems are developed using the Linux environment. However, among these embedded Linux systems, the lack of remote monitoring and management applications has been noticed by embedded developers. This is where Advantech SUSIAccess Linux version comes in. By providing a ready-to-use remote access solution, System Integrators can focus more on their own Linux applications and let SUSIAccess protect their systems, monitor their devices' health, and remotely configure power management.

SUSIAccess 2.0 Linux Version: Powerful Remote Management Software
SUSIAccess centralizes monitoring of all remote embedded devices. It collects all device data, and provides logs for remote management. When errors occur, it auto-notifies the system administrator via warning popups and e-mail alerts. The "Power on-off" feature enables system administrators to switch off devices that are not in use to save energy and cost. The "System Protection" feature blocks any unauthorized apps, providing complete protection against cyber threats and virus attacks. The "Remote Desktop" feature allows administrators to control remote devices remotely from the console side, so that the maintenance cost and efforts can be minimized.

All the features provided by SUSIAccess significantly improve maintenance efficiency and reduce personnel cost and time as well as power consumption. SUSIAccess also has an intuitive graphical user interface that significantly reduces the learning curve. Even non-IT personnel can learn and use SUSIAccess in a short time.
