Opis

An Internet of Things (IoT) gateway bridges physical devices to the Internet. Such gateway isolates developers from the complexities of hardware subsystems. Eclipse Kura is a Java- and OSGi-based Open Source framework that provides a platform for building IoT gateways. It is an application container that enables remote management of such gateways and provides a wide range of APIs for allowing developers to write and deploy their own IoT applications. In factories, people often focus on processing data from physical devices and it requires an environment to communicate with the devices. Currently available solutions (OpenMUC, Bosch ProSyst, Eclipse Kura 1.x) require knowledge about specific framework internals to develop such communication mechanism. And hence, people spend more time programming their service gateways for specific device communication scenarios. Keeping this in mind, Eclipse Kura 2.0 is introducing Kura Wires to ease such industrial application development by visually connecting components together. For example, connecting an OPCUA PLC to Cloud Publisher to control publishing its production data to cloud platform.
