Product Details
ioBroker is an integration platform for the Internet of Things, focused on Building Automation, Smart Metering, Ambient Assisted Living, Process Automation, Visualization and Data Logging. It aims to be a possible replacement or extension for software like fhem, OpenHAB or the thing system. ioBroker is the successor of CCU.IO , a project quite popular in the German HomeMatic community.
ioBroker is not just an application, it's more of a a concept, a database schema, and offers a very easy way for systems to inter operate. ioBroker defines some common rules for a pair of databases used to exchange data and publish events between different systems.
ioBroker is an open-source automation platform written with NodeJS and runs on Windows, Linux, macOS and SBC "Single Board Computers" like Raspberry Pi. It's a complete platform for IoT "Internet of Things" which supports adding, configuring and managing devices with ease. ioBroker has hundreds of adaptors that resemble services, devices, other platforms, sensors, security systems and protocols.
