Fuuz has pre-built integration Connectors
What is a Connector in Fuuz?
- A connector acts like a “system driver”
- Connectors enable seamless integration between Fuuz and external systems
- Connectors are pre-built and tailored for specific platforms and protocols
Purpose of Connectors
- Facilitate data exchange and automation across enterprise systems
- Reduce the complexity and time required for custom integrations
- Ensure reliable communication between Fuuz and third-party systems
- Handle the authentication and general communication between systems
Types of Connectors
- Tier 1 – High complexity (e.g., SAP, Oracle ERP)
- Tier 2 – Moderate complexity (e.g., QAD, IFS, Infor, Salesforce.com)
- Tier 3 – Lower complexity (e.g., Plex ERP, NetSuite, Quickbooks)
- Data Exchange – Generic Interfaces (e.g., EDI, FTP, File Folders)
- Device – Industrial Hardware (e.g., PLCs, CNCs, RFID, weigh scales)
Tiered Connector System
- Tier 1 – Complex APIs, high maintenance, deep integration logic
- Tier 2 – Balanced complexity, fewer APIs, easier to maintain
- Tier 3 – Simple APIs, standard communication methods
- Tiering connectors helps customers understand integration effort and support level
- Fuuz maintains the connectors themselves, customers maintain their own individual integrations
Data Exchange Connectors
- Designed for generic data flows
- Examples: EDI trading partners, FTP Folders, shared file directories
- No specific implementation logic – just point of exchange
Device Connectors
- Connect Fuuz to physical industrial devices.
- Examples:
- PLCs (Programmable Logic Controllers)
- CNCs (Computer Numerical Control machines)
- CMMs (Coordinate Measuring Machines)
- RFID, AGVs, Weigh Scales, etc.
- Enable real-time data collection and machine-level automation
- Typical industrial protocols supported like:
- Modbus/TCP
- EthernetIP
- HTTP
- MQTT
- OPCUA
- Others
