It offers maps and geofencing, an MCP Server for AI assistant access to assets and attributes, and a Forecasting Service for time-series predictions. Protocol Agents support HTTP, SNMP, ModBus, MQTT, Bluetooth, LoRaWAN, KNX, and others, with a REST API and WebSockets for external integration. Additional features include Realms for multi-tenancy, Keycloak-based identity management with RBAC, OTA firmware updates via Hawkbit, edge gateways with tunneling, and PostgreSQL/TimescaleDB storage.
OpenRemote targets professional integrators and manufacturers building IoT applications across domains such as energy management, industrial IoT, fleet telematics, building management, smart cities, and agriculture.
