Overview
Data management for embedded industrial systems has always been crucial because it enables diverse components—including sensors and devices—to orchestrate data campaigns and make informed decisions. Meaningful data collection, storage, processing, and interpretation allow for real-time decision making, operational efficiency improvements, automation, and valuable insights to optimize production processes. Integrating data from these complex systems becomes significantly challenging without access to proper embedded data management software and data experts.
We designed and built ITTIA DB to address these challenges. We recognized that the data processing and management software plays a vital role for embedded IoT systems. The most important aspects of data management addressed by ITTIA DB are ensuring data quality, handling large volumes of data generated by numerous sensors and devices, managing data velocity, real-time processing and security.
ITTIA database products enable embedded systems at the edge to smooth, structure and refine real-time device data. Whether you are building embedded systems for chemical refineries, industrial control systems, water purification for municipalities or medical device robots, it is important to learn about ITTIA database product features and exceptional high-performance capabilities.

ITTIA DB enables rapid and efficient data processing, access, and analysis by utilizing robust infrastructure that ensures fast retrieval and reliable insights for demanding workloads. This high-performance data management technology empowers fast ingestion and queries to manage data in real-time systems. With ITTIA DB fast speed and proper data management features, managing diverse data sources such as sensors connected to microcontrollers and microprocessors systems can connect and manage data.
Industrial IoT
To achieve real time data monitoring objectives, innovations with ITTIA DB are poised to make industrial systems fundamentally benefit from edge data management and processing capabilities. ITTIA DB comes with minimal administrative requirements and memory footprint, combined with powerful functionality. It empowers industrial systems to structure, perform optimizations and process locally critical data which is then made accessible to software-defined systems embedded with Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning components.
Benefits of ITTIA DB for Industrial Systems
ITTIA database products are ideal for virtually all modern industrial edge devices to organize, process, store, and query all kinds of data. Industrial software developers start by designing a custom data model for their unique IIoT data problems in ITTIA Analitica, then deploy certifiable ITTIA DB software embedded with that data model to various Arm Cortex-A and Intel microprocessors, Arm Cortex-M microcontrollers, and more. With a small footprint and minimal database administration, ITTIA DB empowers these devices to safely and securely process critical data.
Data ingested from sensors and other data points is instantly available for local queries on each device that captures data into ITTIA DB. Built in support for advanced aggregation, filtering, windowing, and more enable applications to dynamically identify and access to the data that matters. Software-defined systems embedded with Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning components use ITTIA DB to prepare data and capture inference results.
Industrial systems manufacturers seek to understand data in applications built for smart connected systems. ITTIA Data Connect combines data from many different Industrial IoT systems and enables queries across their shared data model. To achieve real time data monitoring objectives, innovations with ITTIA DB are poised to make industrial systems fundamentally benefit from edge data management and processing capabilities. ITTIA DB enables manufacturers easy, cost-efficient methods to run data campaigns across their systems for preventive maintenance, system behavior monitoring, anomaly detection and more.
Real-time Data Analytics
ITTIA DB products are designed to offer manufacturers of embedded industrial systems a solution to process and analyze data locally in the device. They easily process transactional real-time data workloads and analytical queries to gain fast insights and perform in a wide range of environments.
Time Series Storage
ITTIA DB time-series database provides a shared context for time-stamped readings and becomes the critical pivot point for processing and understanding large volumes and workloads of IIoT data. It is used for storage and retrieval of time series data for real-time data processing.
