-Device classes-
Device Management in IoTRoutes defines how IoT devices are organized, configured, and controlled within the platform.
Every device inherits its configuration and operational logic from a Device Class.
This hierarchical model ensures consistency, scalability, and reusability across large fleets of devices.
➡ Role-based deployment model
The IoTRoutes platform is based on a modular, role-based architecture, allowing deployment to be adapted according to operational needs and infrastructure size.
➡ Components description
This diagram describes the main components provided by the IoTRoutes platform. The complete list of features and their operation are detailed in the user guide.
IoTRoutes provides public Docker images, along with setup documentation, to simplify platform installation. This solution allows you to quickly set up a complete environment—for testing, demonstration, or even production with minimal functionality.
Docker images are available for the two main components of the platform:
Workflows in IoTRoutes automate data processing and system actions. They can react instantly to IoT events or execute periodically according to a schedule. Each workflow is composed of triggers, actions, and conditional paths, defined visually through the Workflow Designer.
There are two types of IoTRoutes workflows :
Before you begin using or configuring the platform, it is essential to understand the architecture and concept of the IoTRoutes solution. Please read the sections referenced by the previous links before proceeding with the configuration.
