Noisy Pump Sensors: Add the Edge

Explain why an edge gateway can improve reliability, filtering, and command control in an IoT architecture.

What changed when Dana moved from direct raw telemetry to an edge-mediated stack? Before: every raw sensor blip goes straight to the cloud alert path. After: the edge gateway buffers, filters, and forwards platform-ready events. Telemetry now lands at the edge first, so a short connectivity drop becomes a queued message instead of an apparent pump failure. The gateway keeps local timestamps and filters single-sample spikes, which separates mechanical patterns from transport noise. The platform receives cleaner events for storage, dashboards, and fleet rules instead of carrying every raw packet decision. Cloud-to-device commands now follow an explicit managed path through…
