When connecting to a cloud, IoT gateways are often used. These are industrial routers that enable the interface between the automation solution and the Internet. Modern devices support Docker to run its own applications.
With the Universal Cloud Adapter, docker devices can be extended with many protocols and connected to our cloud.
If there is a Docker environment on the device, the Cloud Adapter can be executed as a Docker container with a single command:
docker run -d -p 80:8888 anyviz/cloudadapter
After successfully running the Docker container on an IoT Gateway, the intuitive web interface of the Universal Cloud Adapter is available. Any connections can now be created and data exchanged with controllers or sensors via OPC-UA, Modbus, Siemens IP, BACnet or M-Bus.
