What is an Industrial IoT Gateway

An Industrial IoT Gateway (IIoT Gateway) is a hardware device or software program that serves as a bridge between local devices (such as PLCs, barcode scanners, robots, CNC machines, non-standard upper computers, etc.) and cloud systems (such as IoT platforms, SCADA systems, MES systems, etc.). All data flowing between devices and the cloud passes through the IoT gateway, as shown in the figure below:

Open Source IoT Gateway: A Powerful Tool for IoT Device Integration Using Python

Introduction

With the development of the Internet of Things (IoT), more and more devices need to connect to IoT platforms for monitoring and management. However, different devices may use different communication protocols and interfaces, which poses certain challenges for integration and management. To address this issue, ThingsBoard has developed open-source software called ThingsBoard Gateway, which acts as an IoT gateway to integrate devices connected to traditional and third-party systems with the ThingsBoard IoT platform.
