Cloud-Based Gas Detection for Hot Work Operations

The demand for live gas detection data continues to grow, and with that growth there is an expectation of increased data accessibility and analytics. Industrial Scientific Corporation (Pittsburgh, PA) migrated all iNet® infrastructure to Amazon Web Services (AWS), the world’s leading cloud provider, which offers the necessary infrastructure to meet these demands by providing the most scalable and flexible environment possible. With AWS in place, fabrication shops involved in burning and welding operations, using fire- or spark-producing tools or producing sources of ignition can quickly and easily access critical data as they strive to monitor operations, prevent downtime, and save lives. The iNet Integrated Solution for Gas Detection includes Control Gas Detection Management Software, Exchange Gas Detection as a Service, and Now Live Monitoring Software. iNet is used in 81 countries and has helped keep workers safe for over 16 years, recording over 56.7 million alarm events and ensuring workers in critical and high-risk industries make it home to their families.

“AWS provides the data accessibility and analytics to support our users as their safety and productivity needs evolve,” explained Raghu Arunachalam, the general manager and senior vice president of the Industrial Scientific Digital division. This solution migration followed the AWS Well-Architected Framework to ensure that applications are secure, high-performing, resilient, and efficient.
