Rule engine – set triggers by time

Rule engine – set triggers by time

Rule engine of the MQTT Broker helps you analyse the data and create actions and send appropriate messages to another device based on the received data. But in addition, most of the work human do from dawn to dusk are time driven. So the things on the internet needs some activation based on the time in addition to the condition based activation.

Today, we are happy to add a time based rule engine which can users define messages based on the time in addition to the condition based rules.

One Time Scheduling:

The MQTT Broker can be configured to send specific message to a specific topic on a particular date and time.

Repetitive Tasks:

The floor cleaning robot needs to be scheduled every day or certain days of the week to clean all rooms.  This can be triggered by scheduing messages all days or on specific days and specific time.

Seasonal:

Some work may be seasonal like watering the lawn and using air conditioners in tropical countries. The MQTT broker can trigger messages on a specified date range and time to trigger actions.

In addition to the rules engine enhancement, we have also added an exclusive download for the Raspbian OS to be used in the Raspberry Pi.

How IOT can Save Money?

How IOT can Save Money?

Cutting cost is one of the major goal for any production line. This blog gives a heads up on how can IOT save money for you.

Human race is running very fast to beat the time.  In this race, we often fix problems at surface level and did not go into root cause of the problem. Hence this results in repeated occurrence of the problem creating a bigger damage. But the reason for most of the quick fixes is we don’t have enough data to understand real problem.

If we set a target to reduce the power consumed in a manufacturing, our agenda would be to switch off all unwanted visibly running equipment without understanding who is the real culprit. The real saving will come when we really understand who is consuming the excess power than the prescribed rating.

Aristotle says, “The whole is greater than the sum of its parts.

IoT is the saviour which can help you collect a lot of information from various points of interest. And it will help you analyse it with a time perspective and take proactive decisions.  You can deploy the sensors in your production line to understand the flow of materials, machine efficiency and make decision on the maintenance schedules.  

With real time data, we will be able to make the best decision in manufacturing, shipping, health care , fitness , automotive, home etc.

By looking at close to 600 variables in 16 stations in the assembly line and looking at data over a period of time we have been able to bring down scrap by 67%—that’s massive in terms of material usage. If you put a cost to the material, you are saving close to 2.4 million euros annually.” , claims

Bevywise IoT Simulator — Windows Support , Simulator API & More..

We have been working hard to make the simulation tools more comfortable for the testers and development professionals. Hence, we enhanced Windows MQTT Simulator to help you simulate MQTT Devices to develop , test & demo real world MQTT Brokers and MQTT Devices. Previously we had support only for the Linux and MAC operating Systems.  But With this version, the Simulator can be used in windows 7 , 8 & 10 and Server . The highlights of version 2 are:

Windows MQTT Simulator

The simulator can now run on 32 bit and 64 bit windows Operating System in addition to already support Linux and Mac.

Controlled Simulation with Simulator API

You can automate to run Windows MQTT  Simulator on a test bed and can be remotely controlled using the API. In addition You can dynamically create a new MQTT Device and connect to your broker under test , you can send new messages from an existing client , and more with the new API. The pre build clients for Python can be downloaded from here.

Enhanced Performance & Stability

This update brings a lot of fixes and performance enhancements to the simulator. The simulator takes the CSV (colon separated values) as input to simulate the devices.

 You can simulate more than tens of thousands of devices in a single machine.  However with the beta 2 version of the simulator you can simulate up to 2000 clients in both subscribers and publishers. Download the Windows MQTT Simulator.
