Senseforce Edge Overview

The Senseforce Edge solution provides a flexible plugin system to connect various input interfaces. Senseforce Edge implements a calculation engine to execute basic aggregations. The transmission engine sends the data – again utilizing a flexible plugin system on the output side – to a cloud system or local database. The data routing system the connection of various input sources and routing of the data to several output destinations, if desired.

Senseforce Edge Plugin System

The Edge architecture is designed to either use existing plugins or to easily create new plugins. Contact us if you need to integrate protocols and interfaces which are not already included in the Edge. MQTT is used by default to send data to the Senseforce cloud. A two-step system allows data to be cached locally in the event of network issues. Depending on the hard disk configuration, several days without an internet connection can be overcome with no loss of data.

Hardware requirements

Senseforce Edge is designed to support low-end x86-based hardware. Windows 7, Windows 10 as well as several Linux distributions are supported out of the box.

CPU: Dual Core 1GHz RAM: 512MB Disc: 512MB (HDD, SSD) Internet: 512 kBit bandwidth Operating system: Windows 7 SP 1.0, Windows 10 or Linux (x86 64 Bit, ARM)
