What is Tuya Cube?

Last Updated on : 2023-05-22 06:37:53

Tuya Cube, a private deployment solution for IoT services, is designed to help you build your own IoT cloud platform.

What’s inside

Tuya Cube helps to address all your needs in one place with a comprehensive offering: IoT Core Foundation for device connectivity as well as services backed by IoT Development Platform, including application and product development, big data development platform, and app marketing solutions.

Advantages

A key factor that differentiates Tuya Cube from other private clouds or IoT platforms is its comprehensive IoT strategy.

	Tuya Cube	Other Vendors or Proprietary Platforms
Cloud computing providers	Cloud-agnostic enables you to choose the desired infrastructure from leading public cloud service providers, freeing you from vendor lock-in.	Vendor lock-in makes it difficult to switch to another vendor in the face of change. Core technologies can be uncontrollable due to strong dependence on a vendor.
Development processes	A one-stop solution can address all your IoT needs in one place, from hardware connectivity to app development. The off-the-shelf ecosystem can cost you less.	Rely on third-party hardware without off-the-shelf ecosystem and hardware solutions, requiring a long lead time.
Generic components	A modular approach to industry applications enables a shorter time to build applications such as mobile apps and SaaS through low-code or no-code development.	Resources are restricted to a single industry without generic components for quick reuse, so you need to create everything from scratch for every project.
Data security	You are in full ownership of your data and control of your platform and benefit from the data compliance programs and security incident response plan.	Since open source vulnerabilities are increasing, inadequate compliance programs and security incident response can expose your business to security risks.
Technical support	Listed on the NYSE and HKEX, Tuya can offer stable and reliable technical support.	If businesses are vulnerable to adverse market conditions, long-term technical support might not be guaranteed.
