FairCom Edge provides a graphical user interface that streamlines the process of collecting, storing, transforming, and delivering your data. To run the user interface, open a Google Chrome web browser and enter a URL like the following: https://localhost:8443/. As needed, change localhost to the server hostname where you installed FairCom Edge.
FairCom Edge is an IoT data integration platform designed to integrate OT, IoT, and IT data. It combines FairCom’s data transformation engine, MQTT broker, app server, database, and data collectors into a single executable. Furthermore, FairCom Edge collects data near the source, persists it locally, bridges OT, IoT, and IT protocols, and delivers data to and from the cloud. It does all this through simple configuration using the built-in browser-based UIs and JSON APIs. It bridges a variety of protocols including MQTT, OPC UA, Modbus, ThingWorx, SQL, and JSON APIs.
