    • Market:
      • The ThingWorks server is targeting to be an addon to existing MES systems ( → seeManufacturing Execution Systems ( MES ), in the means of “Brilliant Manufacturing” / “Industry 4.0” to enable a “Machine Visibility Application”, not as replacement for existing MES systems. Sort of “MES Next Level” .
    • Implementation:
      • There is a commercial online service, with limited free account.
      • You can buy the software for installation in your own datacenter.
    • Technology:
      • Communications by Websockets.
      • Java application, to be deployed on a Apache Tomcat Server.
      • Database. Neo4J ist the default database and was the only one for longtime, but now other databases like Cassandra or Postgres are supported.
      • There is a Javascript engine with JS framework on eye-level with NodeJS installed on the server. You may write user-specific code to collect data, to generate reports by a database query. By user-defined Javascript scripts, the system may also do event handling. Some users agree that concerning this aspect, the system is similar to SalesForge.
    • Creation of a simple demo application.
      • Steps:
        • Define / select the “Properties”.
        • Define the behaviour of your application by a “Service”. You may create services by your own JS scripts.
        • Create an “Application”, a dashboard ( a mashup of data visualisations on a canvas ).
    • A “Stream” is a time series of values, which can be handled by your own JS scripts. The report may be a table filled with data, with your “Properties” as table headers.
    • At ThingWorx Marketplace, there are offers
      • Templates
      • Constoum Graphic Controls, for the mashup.
    • Jobs: ThingWorx has an office in Ratingen, Germany, but no vacancies / job openings are offered .

   • 2lemetry "How It Works" - “2lemetry’s ThingFabric Platform has been architected to provide superior flexibility, performance and intelligence. Here’s how it works”.
   • If you don´t operate your device in “smart mode” ( e.g. with code generated by the “Energia” software tool, or with the code of “Lab2” of the CC3200 workshop ), you have to specify the local Internet router!
   • “Lab2” of the CC3200 workshop:
     1. SSID_NAME = “ssid_name”.
     2. SECURITY_TYPE = SL_SE_TYPE_WPA.
     3. SECURITY_KEY = “password”.
   • Energia:
     1. #WIFI_SSID = “ssid_name”.
     2. #WIFI_PWD = “password”.
   • Be shure to configure your access data in your local device software properly:
     1. TWOELEMENTRY_USERID = “Key (Username)”
     2. TWOELEMENTRY_PASSWORD = “MD5 Secret” ( and not the “Secret (Password)” )!!
     3. TWOELEMENTRY_DOMAIN_STUFF = “Project” ( a long string of letters and numbers ).

Each service or tool is delivered as a Dōgu, a Docker container, that can be easily integrated in your environment just by pulling it from our registry. We have a growing number of ready-to-use Dōgus, e.g. SCM-Manager, Jenkins, Nexus, SonarQube, Redmine and many more. Every Dōgu can be tailored to your specific needs. You can even bring along your own Dōgus! Take advantage of a central authentication service, a dynamic navigation, that lets you easily switch between the web UIs and a smart configuration magic, which automatically detects and responds to dependencies between Dōgus”.

  • Your functions must be triggered by (external) events.
