Nexalis provides the Overlay Internet for Critical Infrastructure. We unify fragmented operational data inside an operator into a trusted operational reality. This data foundation then enables governed sharing and coordination of actions across organizations.
Please reach out to contact@nexalis.io to get access to Nexalis Agent and create your Nexalis Cloud environment.

📊 Nexalis Platform Overview

The diagram below illustrates how Nexalis Agent and Nexalis Cloud work together to create an open, secure, and interoperable industrial data platform: Nexalis Platform

​
🌐 Nexalis Cloud

Nexalis Cloud is a secure, scalable environment that ingests and standardizes industrial signals into a shared operational reality, then governs how that reality is shared across stakeholders—enabling cross-organization coordination and applications on top.
  • High-frequency ingestion: Second-level (≈1s) time-series data.
  • Near real-time availability: Data is available via API within ~5 seconds from extraction at the Nexalis Agent.
  • Data contextualization: AI Agent that unifies complex, proprietary vendor-specific data into a unified model; this output is what Nexalis calls Standardized data.
  • Zero-touch Onboarding: Automation of Nexalis Agent deployments
  • Data Compute & Storage: Computes and stores raw and standardized data.
  • Catalog / Trending / Events: UI to visualize and analyze data.
  • Sharing Raw & Aggregated Data: Shares data to any applications and environments (i.e., lakehouse providers, ISVs, and custom applications)
  • Security: Encryption at rest and in transit, role-based access control and regular audits.
  • Business Insight Copilot: AI Agent answering prompts on industrial data processed by Nexalis.

​
🏠 Nexalis Agent

The Nexalis Agent is the edge software that ensures reliable, real-time data flow from on-premise and remote assets to the cloud.
  • Flexible Deployment: Available on Linux, Docker, or Windows; VM, on-prem hardware, or deployed remotely in the cloud.
  • Data Collection: Connects to industrial devices with protocols such as Modbus, OPC UA, DNP3, OPC XML DA, etc.
  • Automated Data Flow: Configure automated data streaming by time intervals or value changes, with built-in support to compute data averages (e.g., 5-minute averages).
  • Real-Time: Streams industrial data in real time for immediate insights.
  • Reliability: On-disk buffering prevents data loss during outages or when connectivity to the cloud is interrupted.
  • Rapid Onboarding: Connect your data to the cloud in minutes with no complex integration thanks to our unique EL(T) mechanism — Extract, Load, (Transform) —; Extracts data from industrial systems, Loads it into Nexalis Cloud, and only then applies data Transformations as needed.
