Case Study: ÖBB-Infrastruktur AG achieves secure, predictive railway operations with ThingsBoard

ÖBB-Infrastruktur AG keeps railway data within its IT network with ThingsBoard

ÖBB-Infrastruktur AG, Austria's rail infrastructure provider, faced the challenge of increasing railway traffic demand while needing to optimize maintenance schedules and ensure safety. They needed to manage real-time data from a vast IoT network securely without exposing internal systems to the public internet. To address this, they partnered with ThingsBoard to leverage its platform, including ThingsBoard Edge and ThingsBoard PE.

ThingsBoard implemented a solution centered on a digital twin of the railway assets. Using ThingsBoard Edge for secure, on-premise data processing and a cloud-based PE instance for visualization, the system enabled real-time monitoring and predictive analytics. This allowed ÖBB-Infrastruktur AG to proactively predict issues, simulate scenarios, and provide stakeholders with customized dashboards, leading to enhanced operational efficiency and more informed decision-making.
