IoT systems keep changing, and companies need better ways to handle their data. The new Kaa Next platform, which updates Kaa Cloud, helps developers build and run IoT systems more easily. The platform offers better security controls, simpler workflows, and data analysis tools.

In this article, we'll look at what's new in Kaa Next, from its AI capabilities and user management system to its reporting features and prediction models.

What’s new in Kaa Next?

Kaa Next adds new features to Kaa Cloud that make the platform easier to use and more powerful. The updates focus on better tools for managing IoT systems, analyzing data, and controlling user access.

Instant help with AI integration

The new Ask AI feature makes working with the platform simpler. This assistant:

  • Answers questions about how to use different Kaa tools
  • Creates charts and runs calculations on your IoT data
  • Helps you find what you need quickly

You can use Ask AI to make graphs, analyze statistics, and handle complex tasks with less work. You can pick which AI model fits your needs best.

For teams who want to keep their data private, Ask AI works with open-source models like Llama3 and Mistral. Companies that need more advanced features can connect to OpenAI or Anthropic through APIs.

Ask AI speeds up your work by giving you quick insights on platform usage and more time thinking about your IoT systems.

Built-in native IAM

Kaa Next includes fully integrated identity and access management, which streamlines user authentication and access control. Businesses can now manage users and roles directly within the platform.

Key features include:

  • Role-based permissions for granular access control
  • Centralized management of devices, applications, and resources
  • Simplified administrative tasks with fewer external tools

By consolidating access management, Kaa Next enhances operational security and reduces vulnerabilities. Role-specific access ensures only authorized users can interact with sensitive systems.

Native Kaa IAM reduces complexity and supports scalability, making it an excellent fit for businesses of all sizes.

Advanced reporting for actionable insights

Kaa Next makes reporting simple with tools you can adapt to your needs. You'll get:

  • Reports you can customize to show how your devices work and what patterns emerge
  • Regular updates that run on their own to keep your data fresh
  • The option to save your findings as PDFs, Excel files, or CSVs

Your team can track what matters without hassle. Reports run by themselves to keep everyone in the loop, and sharing data between teams is as easy as clicking 'export.’

Data forecasting and anomaly detection (beta)

Kaa Next now includes smart tools to help you manage your IoT setup better. You can:

  • Use statistical and deep learning models to forecast trends
  • Spot unusual patterns in real time to fix issues early
  • Leverage AI to proactively optimize operations

Though still in testing, these tools show how you can plan ahead better. You'll know where to put your resources and catch anomalies before they cause trouble.

The system helps you fine-tune these prediction tools to match what your company needs. As we improve this feature, it'll become even more helpful for your IoT setup.
