The integration of legacy systems and stranded data is a problem facing many businesses globally, many are still operating with outdated technology, that still serves important roles but struggles to communicate with modern systems, or provides actionable insights to help with current legislations such as net zero, or environmental, social and governance (ESG) credentials.
The Problem with Legacy Systems and Stranded Data
Legacy systems often rely on manufacturer specific protocols, making them incompatible with today’s open and flexible IoT platforms. These systems can also produce "stranded data"—valuable information that is isolated, unused, or completely inaccessible because of outdated hardware or software limitations. This issue leads to inefficiencies, increased operational costs, and missed opportunities to easily understand what is going on within an organisation.
What is MobiusFlow?
MobiusFlow solves these challenges by acting as a universal translator for data and protocols. Its multi-protocol support includes standards like EnOcean, Modbus, MQTT, BACnet, and LoRaWAN, among others. This flexibility allows MobiusFlow to bridge the communication gap between old systems and modern platforms, ensuring a smooth flow of data without costly hardware replacements.
Unlocking the Value of Stranded Data
MobiusFlow captures data from legacy systems, aggregates it, and presents it in a usable format. With real-time monitoring and customisable workflows, businesses can:
- Identify inefficiencies in real-time.
- Predict and prevent failures with actionable insights.
- Automate processes, reducing the need for manual intervention.
- Generate reports for compliance, energy usage, or maintenance schedules.
Practical Applications Across Industries
- Manufacturing: MobiusFlow connects legacy equipment to modern IoT dashboards, enabling real-time monitoring of production lines.
- Facilities Management: By integrating older HVAC, lighting, or energy systems, facility managers gain centralised control without expensive upgrades.
- Healthcare: Hospitals with older monitoring systems can use MobiusFlow to unify patient care data with newer technologies such as air quality, occupancy sensors and people counters, improving efficiency and compliance.
- Oil and Gas: monitoring legacy equipment like flow rate monitors and older variable valve controls, which often hold stranded data.
- Resource Mining: Tailing ponds, monitoring environmental impact, occupancy and silo levels can all be combined with new technology to give an efficient overview of the entire operation.
Start Small, Scale Big
MobiusFlow's scalable design makes it ideal for businesses looking to start small and grow over time. Its modular architecture allows companies to tackle specific challenges first—like HVAC optimisation or energy management—and expand the system as needs evolve. This approach minimises upfront costs and reduces disruption during implementation.
The Long-Term Benefits
By bridging the gap between old and new, MobiusFlow extends the lifespan of legacy systems, reduces waste, and supports sustainability initiatives. Businesses not only save on replacement costs but also gain a competitive edge by turning outdated systems into assets rather than liabilities.
Why Choose MobiusFlow?
MobiusFlow offers a cost-effective, customisable solution for businesses of all sizes. Its ability to integrate with multiple third-party platforms, streamline workflows, and provide actionable insights ensures a future-proof strategy for data management and operational efficiency.
