- Device management: The status of each registered device can be monitored using the cloud interface. Devices can be assigned to a particular end user or project to aid organisation and to delegate administrative responsibilities.
- Data collection: SanTrack includes an MQTT server which will accept data from TCUs. MQTT data may be sent over an SSL connection for increased security.
- Data storage: Once received via MQTT, data can be stored in a PostgreSQL, Cassandra or Timescale database. These backend databases can be queried, backed up, etc as required.
- Data analytics: SanTrack provides data query tools, data visualisation and a rule engine which can be used to automate data analysis. Alarms can be configured so that the administrator is notified on important events.
The Thingsboard open source project may be used as an alternative to SanTrack to provide similar features.
