Simple Iot is a platform that enables you to add remote sensor data, telemetry, configuration, and device management to your project or product.
Implementing IoT systems is hard. Most projects take way longer and cost more than they should. The fundamental problem is getting data from remote locations (edge) to a place where users can access it (cloud). We also need to update data and configuration at the edge in real time from any location. Simple IoT is an attempt to solve these problems by embracing the fact that IoT systems are inherently distributed and building on simple concepts that scale.
Simple IoT provides:
- a single application with no dependencies that can be run in both cloud and edge instances
- efficient syncronization data in both directions
- a powerful UI to view configuration and current values
- a rules engine that runs on all instances that can trigger notifications or set data
- extensive support for modbus -- both server and client
- flexible graph orgnization of instances, users, groups, rules, and configuration
- intgration with other services like InfluxDB and Twilio
- a system that is easy to extend in any language using NATS
- a number of useful Go packages to use in your custom application
