In the "IoT World" data comes fast, with devices having unique data structures and standards. Cisco's products allow you to build rulesets and microservices which process data streams from virtually any device in real-time, and forward the processed data onward.

Cisco's IOx microservices platform, when combined with Cisco Kinetic, allows solution builders to distribute data processing functions at any point in the network – at the edge or aggregation layers, or at the data center or cloud. Operators can deploy many microservices at each tier to handle highly distributed workload needs.

Microservice-based analytical processing enables the creation of rules which can be distributed to any node to receive, process and analyze, transform, and then transmit data as it is streamed or acquired. Build applications that take unstructured data and turn it into structured information.

Create "links" which connect into hundreds of applications, databases, hardware, and communications protocols to pull data from, control, or push data to a destination. Create “data fabrics” of distributed microservices to enable rapidly deployable and integrated systems.
