Cutting Edge Software has a passion for simplifying edge communications and networking for real-world industrial applications. We build software for people who design, deploy and support industrial systems—where reliability matters, environments are unforgiving, and time spent troubleshooting is time lost in the field. Our focus is simple: Practical software that works the way that you and your customers work.
Cutting Edge are the creators of Nova, the industrial communications, networking and visualization platform. Designed from the ground up using modern technologies and tools, Nova is field tested, with over 3,500 instances already deployed in the the most demanding of applications. It runs on any Intel- or ARM-based device, from large touchscreen PCs to low-cost industrial gateways. Nova provides an easy-to-use environment for integrators and end-users seeking to create powerful solutions, delivering the fluency you’d expect from a Windows application in a user interface that is hosted entirely in your web browser.
Nova can communicate with a wide variety of industrial devices, moving the resulting data to other devices, or exporting it via protocols such as MQTT and OPC UA. Integration with databases such as Microsoft SQL Server or PostgreSQL moves production data both to and from enterprise level systems, while multi-session HTML5 graphics visualize your data on either a local display or via any web browser. Nova provides powerful and secure networking facilities, including support for VLANs and VPN tunnels using modern technologies such as Wireguard and Tailscale. And if that isn’t enough the SDK subsystem allows you to host your own software or to import ready-made containers running applications like Node-RED or the Mosquitto MQTT broker.
