📄️ OpenRemote as Edge Gateway
Overview
📄️ Auto provisioning devices and users
OpenRemote offers functionality for automatic client and asset provisioning. If you build and distribute your own hardware devices, you can use this mechanism to have your devices automatically register and connect to OpenRemote.
📄️ Connect ESP32 or ESP8266 using MQTT
ESP32 and ESP8266 are some of the most popular and well established boards for devices by Espressif. ESP32 and ESP8266 (and other types) can be easily linked to an OpenRemote instance using our MQTT Broker. If you have larger numbers of devices connecting you might want to use the auto provisioning flow. This allows you to provision your devices in such a way that they automatically connect your devices to OpenRemote, create an asset of the type you have defined, and link the attributes over the right topics. ESP32 and ESP8266 are perfectly suitable to make use of it.
📄️ Firmware updating with Hawkbit
OpenRemote integrates with Hawkbit, a framework for rolling out software updates to constrained edge devices. Currently we have the following features integrated and tested:
