GE Digital + Bosch Software Innovations to help to help machines and devices understand each other

I want to recall that, in any IoT application, things need to be connected to a backend where data and functionality of the devices are leveraged to provide higher-level business value.

At the heart of stakes, we have: interoperability and open source collaboration. In effect, GE and Bosch are working together to shape the connected world through a collaboration between the software divisions of both organizations, GE Digital and Bosch Software Innovations. 

The agreement focuses on technology interoperability and platform integration through GE’s Predix operating system and the Bosch IoT Suite. 

Both companies intend to establish an open source-based technical IoT core and jointly grow a larger ecosystem around this technology stack, which IoT platforms can be built upon. Key engagement is within the Eclipse Foundation, one of the major global open source software communities, where both companies are members.
