Features

Tempus was made to simplify ingest/analysis/storage/visualization of your IIoT data. The key features include:

• Device Management
  • Configure and Control your edge devices and acquistion conifigurations
  • This can range from simple data ingestion to complex data analysis and transformation
• Security
  • Data transmission via MQTT over TLS
  • Device authorization via Tokens or X.509 certificates
  • Supports LDAP or built in authentication
• IIoT protocol support
  • Support for:
    • CoAP
    • MQTT
    • HTTP(S)
    • OPC-UA
    • WITSML 1.3.1.1/1.4.1.1 (as a client)
    • Sparkplug B
    • Apache NiFi (via any flow, using the Tempus supplied NAR files to transmit data to the system via MQTT)
• Built in Rules engine for Data flow
  • Using visually-created rules, data can be routed where it needs to go, when it needs to go
  • Data formatting provided by Apache Velocity
• Designed for extensiblity
  • Ability to integrate with any system on the backend. Out of the box support for:
    • Apache Kafka
    • AWS SQS/SNS
    • AWS Kinesis Data Stream/Firehose Delivery Stream
    • Kudu
    • HBase
    • MQTT
    • REST API endpoints
• Comprehensive Visualization System
  • Ability to create drill down and specific views that include
    • Charts
    • Maps
    • Gauges
    • Digital I/O
    • and more
• Scalable
  • Scales with a zero-master clustering model (orchestrated by Zookeeper)
• Configurable Storage
  • Built in data store support for:
    • HSQLDB (Demos/Development/Testing)
    • PostgreSQL
    • Cassandra (recommended for production)
  • Caching support via Redis

Requirements

• JDK 11 or newer
• Apache Maven 3.1.0 or newer
• Git Client

Getting Started

• Read through the Tempus Developer Quickstart. It will include a section on how to build the local development environment via Docker to get you up and running quickly.

To build:

• Execute mvn clean install or for parallel build execute mvn -T 2.0C clean install. On a modest development laptop that is a couple of years old, the latter build takes a bit under fifteen minutes. After a large amount of output you should eventually see a success message.
