The world´s current infrastructure technologies are not designed for an optimally integrated autonomous robot environment. Building a foundation with older generation technologies that were not made for a distributed use in the field such as a fleet of robots is less secure and will face scalability issues.

Staex's technologies developed at Deutsche Telekom since 2017 within a larger distributed systems department and a significant technology investment took proven modern technologies, inspired and influenced by web3. Staex's foundation based on peer-2-peer communication and swarm management offers the best blend of the traditional and new distributed technologies to create a secure, scalable, more sustainable DevOps platform for the future of robotics.

The establishment of such DevOps pipelines is a challenge that the majority of robotics companies face while scaling. They currently solve these issues with custom solutions, spending high development resources to build systems that are not part of their core business. Staex instead offers a standardized, secure and efficient way of how robotics DevOps can be built and managed.

Staex is a secure public network for IoT devices that can not run a VPN such as smart meters, IP cameras, and EV chargers. Staex encrypts legacy protocols, reduces mobile data usage, and simplifies building networks with complex topologies through its unique multi-hop architecture. Staex is fully zero-trust meaning that no traffic is allowed unless specified by the device owner which makes it more secure than even some private networks. With this, Staex creates an additional separation layer to provide more security for IoT devices on the Internet, also protecting other Internet services from DDoS attacks that are usually executed on millions of IoT machines.
