What is WEDA Core?
The Digital Twin Platform for Edge AI
WEDA Core is an enterprise-grade platform that bridges the gap between physical edge devices and cloud-native applications. It serves as the critical "Connective Tissue" in the IoT ecosystem, enabling seamless Digital Twin synchronization and accelerating Edge AI adoption.
Why WEDA Core?
In the rapidly evolving landscape of Edge AI, organizations face two major challenges: managing the complexity of heterogeneous hardware below, and meeting the dynamic demands of vertical applications above.
WEDA Core is designed to solve this by acting as the central orchestrator:
1. Southbound: High-Fidelity Digital Mirroring
WEDA Core abstracts the complexity of physical hardware, transforming raw devices into intelligent digital assets. Instead of just managing connections, it focuses on the fidelity of the virtual model:
- Dynamic State Replication: WEDA Core creates a living virtual replica of every physical asset. It captures dynamic states and behaviors in real-time, ensuring the digital twin is not a static record but an evolving reflection of the physical world.
- Telemetry Normalization & Sync: Raw data from heterogeneous sensors is normalized at the source and synchronized instantly. This ensures that the digital twin is fed with clean, structured data, forming a reliable foundation for downstream simulation and predictive analysis.
2. Northbound: Empowering Vertical Applications
WEDA Core exposes a standardized API layer that empowers developers to build domain-specific applications without worrying about underlying infrastructure.
- Smart City: Manage traffic monitoring, smart lighting, and public safety infrastructure securely with real-time OTA updates.
- Smart Agriculture: Monitor environmental conditions and automate irrigation systems across vast remote fields with high reliability.
- Smart Retail: Deploy AI models to point-of-sale systems and digital signage for real-time customer analytics and inventory management.
- Smart Factory: Orchestrate predictive maintenance workloads and synchronize production line data across factory floors for Industry 4.0.
The "Bridge" Architecture
WEDA Core sits perfectly in the middle, connecting the physical world with the digital application layer.
Key Capabilities
- Remote Digital Twin Management: Go beyond simple monitoring. WEDA Core provides a comprehensive digital twin framework that allows you to remotely configure, update, and troubleshoot edge assets as if you were physically on-site, ensuring total operational control from anywhere.
- Simulation-Ready Data Processing: Built to handle high-velocity edge telemetry. WEDA Core normalizes and processes raw data streams in real-time, feeding high-quality, structured data into your simulation models. This enables accurate predictive maintenance, scenario testing, and behavior modeling directly from live device data.
- Stability & Scalability: Engineered for enterprise resilience. WEDA Core features an organization-based structure designed to scale effortlessly from a single pilot project to massive multi-site deployments, ensuring consistent performance and high availability even as your device fleet grows exponentially.
