The Building Blocks

Coreflux's architecture is built on several key components:

MQTT Broker: The backbone of the platform, ensuring real-time data management and communication.

Flux DSL: A proprietary domain-specific language that allows users to design event-driven workflows, orchestrating complex IoT scenarios.

Asset Management: A system that manages and configures various IoT assets, from sensors to databases.

Data Conditioning & Transformation: Tools that refine and transform raw data for optimal performance and clarity.

Coreflux HUB: The central interface of the Coreflux ecosystem. Positioned as the primary touchpoint, the Coreflux HUB serves as an interactive portal for users to seamlessly engage with all integral components of the platform. With its intuitive design, the HUB facilitates comprehensive configuration, adept management, and real-time monitoring of IoT operations. Catering to both novices and experts in the IoT domain, the HUB is engineered to simplify complex processes, making IoT functionalities readily accessible. A standout feature is its capability to manage 'flux assets' – users can effortlessly install or remove these services, optimizing their IoT environment as per requirements. Furthermore, the HUB integrates advanced security protocols, ensuring data integrity and user authentication. In essence, the Coreflux HUB is not just a user interface; it's the nexus of IoT orchestration, offering a harmonized, technical experience for all users.

How It All Comes Together

Devices communicate with the Coreflux platform via the MQTT Broker. As data flows in, the Flux DSL processes and orchestrates workflows based on predefined conditions. The Asset Management system ensures that each device is correctly configured and operating optimally. Finally, the Data Conditioning & Transformation tools ensure that the data is in the right format and quality for further processing or visualization.

Traditional IoT Platforms

Traditional IoT platforms often operate in silos, with each component (like data storage, processing, and visualization) being separate. This often leads to integration challenges and limits scalability.
