Your Edge IIoT-License

IOT-upgrade  

for YOUR router

Bring your data directly into the cloud via your remote access router and shorten the time needed to produce your proof of concept. We can help you implement your IIoT project.

Edge IIoT Features

The MQTT and OPC UA implementations are seamlessly integrated into (my)mbCONNECT24 and allow you to communicate directly and securely with systems and cloud applications.

Node-RED by default

No complex scripting required – the programming of local applications is now done graphically in the design environment of Node-RED.

Docker & Container integrated

Create your own application with direct access to all system and hardware resources and run it in your own containers. 

Security by Design

By encrypting your data and coupling the SD card with the hardware, we ensure that your data is always secure.

Simplify IOT-Edge application development with Node-RED

Node-RED simplifies the creation of your IoT-Edge application. It is web-based and consists of a graphical user interface and a library of pre-built functions and blocks of code, called nodes. Each node, standard or user defined, manages a single functionality: send an email, perform a Modbus read or write, communicate with (my)mbCONNECT24, MQTT publish/subscribe, OPC UA, etc.

To create your application, simply drag and drop the nodes on the design sheet, connect them following the logical flow of actions and configure them according to your application context.

With Node-RED you will acquire data, process it and post it to your preferred cloud application. Our Node-RED implementation has access to all mbNET resources.

DOCKER & CONTAINERS: RUNNING YOUR EMBEDDED IIOT-EDGE APP

Docker creates virtual workspaces (containers) for user applications and manages their access to the operating system and the system resources. The containers and their applications are isolated and can only communicate through Docker controlled mechanisms. 

Node-RED environment runs in such a container. With the Edge IIoT-License you get access to a second container, running Portainer.io: a GUI for Docker, to configure and manage containers. You also get access to more containers, to run your own personalized applications.

Docker secures deployment and distribution of these applications and only allows signed and trusted images to run in the containers.
