- Introduction to Product
- The web site is one tool for the Device Brokerage Platform. The Platform enables customers
to provision, manage, control (security) and support devices in the field that have previously not been available on the network. Through
either hardware additions or the software client devices can be matched with applications that were previously only available
through direction connection. For example, a washing machine can connect via a serial port to our network bridge and now
an appliance support organization can test and monitor the device remotely. The web tool allows IT managers to get status of the devices,
control access, and deploy applications.
- Overview Schematic
The site map for the existing site was complicated, full of dead-ends and not symmetrical. This was fixed over the next few releases. The site map also helped to drive feature completion and served as a good tool to manage expections for the amount of work that was needed to fill out features.
