Real-Time IoT Dashboards
ThingsBoard allows you to create rich IoT Dashboards for data visualization and remote device control in real-time. More than 30 customizable widgets allows you to build end-user custom dashboards for most IoT use-cases.
Smart energy
Deliver and store data from smart meters in reliable and fault-tolerant way, visualize real-time and historical energy consumption data on customizable end-user dashboards, integrate with third-party analytics frameworks and solutions.
Smart energy use case
Smart farming
Collect important indicators for your agricultural production such as soil conditions or facilities state via IoT sensors and visualize them using end-user customizable dashboards provided by ThingsBoard platform.
Smart farming use case
Fleet tracking
ThingsBoard platform allows to track vehicles state and alerts via various sensors, plot vehicle routes in real-time and browse their sensors reading history at the same time using customizable high quality widgets and dashboards.
Fleet tracking use case
Smart metering
Collect, store and aggregate data from smart meters in reliable and fault-tolerant way. Analyze resource consumption and raise alerts on leakage, anomaly or fraud. Present results of the analysis to end users.
Smart metering use case
Environment monitoring
Monitor and analyze indoor and outdoor environments using a wide range of sensors. ThingsBoard supports data acquisition using modern connectivity technologies and protocols: NB IoT, LoRaWAN, SigFox, MQTT, CoAP, HTTP, LwM2M, and others.
Environment monitoring use case
Smart office
Ensure employee health and safety to boost organization productivity. Optimize resource consumption by monitoring and control of the office indoor climate. ThingsBoard provides rich data visualization, powerful processing engine, remote control and OTA updates capabilities.
Smart office use case
Water metering
Enable water consumption data collection, analysis and fraud detection using ThingsBoard. Use interactive dashboards that allow administrators and end-users to browse the state of the water meters and aggregated water consumption statistics. Enable alarms over SMS and email and integrate with external billing systems.
Water metering use case
Smart retail
Control quality of food storage by monitoring chillers and freezers. Ensure availability of the goods using smart shelves. Ensure safety using motion detection and fire alarms. ThingsBoard provides a solution template to monitor supermarket assets, browse historical data and generate alarms based on user-defined thresholds.
Smart retail use case
ThingsBoard Features
Collect and store telemetry data in reliable way, surviving network and hardware failures. Access collected data using customizable web dashboards or server-side APIs.
Support multi-tenant installations out-of-the-box. Single tenant may have multiple tenant administrators and millions of devices and customers.
Provides 30+ configurable widgets out-of-the-box and ability to create your own widgets using built-in editor. Built-in line-charts, digital and analog gauges, maps and much more.
Amount of supported server-side requests and devices increase linearly as new thingsboard servers are added in clustering mode. No downtime, server restarts or application errors.
Process incoming device data with flexible rule chains based on entity attributes or message content. Forward data to external systems or trigger alarms using custom logic. Configure complex notification chains on alarms. Enrich server-side functionality or manipulate your devices with highly customizable rules. Define your application logic with drag-n-drop rule chain designer.
All thingsboard servers are identical. No master-workers or hot standby. Node failure is automatically detected. Failed nodes can be replaced without downtime. Persisted data is replicated using reliable NoSQL database.
Provides ability to register and manage devices. Allows to monitor client-side and provision server-side device attributes. Provides API for server-side applications to send RPC commands to devices and vice-versa.
Supports transport encryption for both MQTT and HTTP(s) protocols. Supports device authentication and device credentials management.
Provides ability to register and manage assets. Allows to provision server-side asset attributes and monitor related alarms. Ability to build hierarchy of entities using relations.
Extend default platform functionality using customizable rule chains, widgets and transport implementations. In addition to MQTT, CoAP and HTTP support, ThingsBoard users can use their own transport implementations or customize behaviour of existing protocols.
Provides ability to create and manage alarms related to your entities: devices, assets, customers, etc. Allows real-time alarms monitoring and alarms propagation to related entities hierarchy. Raise alarms on device disconnect or inactivity events.
