The architecture of the AlphaX Cloud's Conduit API, as detailed in the provided document, encompasses a comprehensive ecosystem designed to facilitate efficient data flow from field devices to enterprise-level applications.
Field Devices: These are the initial sources of data, encompassing a variety of sensors and devices deployed in the field.
MQTT Service: A messaging protocol that allows for the secure and efficient transmission of data between devices and the server.
LoRaWAN Network Server: This component manages communication between field devices and the network using the LoRaWAN protocol.
AlphaX Web Application: An interface for users to interact with the system, configure settings, and visualize data.
AlphaX Storage: The data storage solution within the architecture, designed for high availability and reliability.
Gatekeeper Service: Manages authentication and authorisation to ensure secure access to system resources.
HTTP GET Services (V4, V6, and V7): These are the core components allowing for modular data input and output configurations, ensuring flexibility and scalability in data management and integration.
HTTP POST Services: This is a HTTP Post service designed for trasferring data from other cloud based applications or sensors and devices with HTTP capability
Each component plays a critical role in ensuring that data flows seamlessly from the edge into the enterprise for analysis and consumption, providing a robust framework for managing complex data ecosystems.
