- **[Actionable Telematics Framework for Connected Assets](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=xcloud.ca_aeo_actionable_event_orchestration_parent.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    The actionable event orchestration framework empowers companies to build sophisticated orchestrations for processing event data generated from assets and take actions in Salesforce. Design orchestration processes that respond to key asset events, such as sensor faults, high ambient temperatures, and battery failures, by setting rules and conditions. After the asset sends the event data, the framework determines the orchestration process to execute. Use these orchestrations to create and update records, including work orders, asset milestones, cases, milestones, and record alerts. Service teams monitor these records in real time and take the required actions, such as offering assistance to customers and performing on-site services.
- **[Data Cloud Experiences for Connected Assets](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=xcloud.ca_setup_workflow.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    Connect, unify, and analyze the data for your connected assets at scale by using Data Cloud. Harmonize, query, and segment asset usage and operations data in a standard data model. Ingest asset operations data from different systems such as telematics providers. Analyze multidimensional metrics for assets, such as asset lifetime value, asset case load, and critical events. Get your Data Cloud implementation up and running by installing the Asset Management Starter data kit. Visualize data that's stored in Data Cloud to improve asset uptime and identify potential faults.
- **[Stay Ahead of Asset Downtime with Proactive Asset Service](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=xcloud.pfs_pas_intro.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    To proactively monitor asset health and performance, explore our intelligent dashboards and analytics.
- **[Telemetry Definition and Action Management](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=xcloud.ca_telemetry_parent.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    Use telemetry definitions to manage the data from connected assets. These definitions create a logical structure for an asset's sensors and actuators. Enable seamless communication for a connected asset to send data from its sensors and receive commands for its actuators. Configure telemetry action definitions to perform remote operations. Automate service process generation for an efficient customer experience.
