msg.IoTX
A new interface for the next generation
The Next Generation of Industrial Connectivity
With msg.IoT-X, we are introducing you to the new interface for the next generation. The completely new development way ahead of its predecessor DGC (Device Gateway Connector) in terms of functionality and is therefore now being marketed as msg Internet of Things Cross Connectivity. This report focuses on the completely redesigned user interface and the further improved usability.
msg.IoT-X, as the X in its name suggests, is no longer limited to Windows. Thanks to its platform independence, msg.IoT-X runs on the very basis that is strategically in use at your company: You rely on Linux? No problem, whether it's a full-blown computer, a minimalist Raspberry PI with its ARM architecture, or a virtualized environment. Or are you considering a cloud solution with Docker? It is your decision whether you want to run a console application or rather a standalone service.
After the initial basic setup, everything else can be conveniently configured and also monitored using a browser. Extensive visualization is available for this purpose.
On the device side, a strict separation between interface and device logic is pursued. It is therefore irrelevant whether a device is connected via serial interface, TCP/IP, UDP or MQTT. Of course, the system also has powerful logging functionality and, in view of the growing diversity of devices with each additional requirement, has been equipped with visualization for certain device types.
Here is an impression of the fresh and tidy interface:
