EMQ Cloud Technology, the world’s leading open source Internet of Things data infrastructure software provider, announced today that it will officially launch the new LF Edge eKuiper(hereinafter referred to as eKuiper) product Logo. The new eKuiper product Logo marks EMQ’s ultimate pursuit of creating world-class open source software products with high performance, high availability and high security on top of the continuous improvement of brand globalization strategy, and is committed to promoting the beautiful vision of human industry and society in the future.
eKuiper is a lightweight iot edge analysis and streaming engine implemented in Golang language by EMQ, which can run on all kinds of resource-constrained edge devices. Since officially open source in 2019,eKuiper has seamlessly integrated with well-known edge computing frameworks such as EdgeX Foundry and KubeEdge to provide end-to-end solutions from edge messaging access to real-time data analysis. At the same time,eKuiper can be seamlessly integrated with cloud EMQX, and can carry out cloud-edge collaborative and efficient iot edge streaming business processing, so as to realize the unified connection, movement, processing and analysis of the data at the cloud edge of the Internet of Things, and further deepen the cloud-edge integration capability provided by EMQ in the era of the Internet of everything.
Last year,EMQ donated eKuiper to the LF Edge Foundation to operate as an independent program under its own initiative to work with global edge computing leaders to accelerate innovation and development in the edge ecosystem.
In recent years, with the explosion of iot applications, we have seen a strong need for efficient and nearby processing of streaming data generated at the iot edge. eKuiper is designed to move real-time streaming computing frameworks that run in the
cloud to the edge. Combined with the characteristics of edge streaming data processing,eKuiper adopts a powerful rule engine based on Source, SQL and Sink to realize high throughput and low latency processing of a large amount of edge streaming data, improving system response speed and security, while saving network bandwidth and storage costs.
The eKuiper project takes its name from the Kuiper belt, an outer solar system disk containing a large number of small objects. Inspired by this,eKuiper’s Logo also uses lines as the main component. The upgraded eKuiper logo uses line elements, but uses thicker and stronger lines to give it a fuller and more intense brand vision, designed to highlight eKuiper’s powerful ability to perform high-performance real-time processing of streaming data at the edge. While maintaining a simple and intuitive image as always, eKuiper’s simple and powerful features can be easily deployed to thousands of edge nodes for fast data processing at the edge.
In addition, the image of a continuous upward flow of multiple lines aligns with eKuiper’s product positioning as a lightweight iot data analysis and stream processing engine running at the edge. The new Logo presents an overall upward mobility dynamic, representing eKuiper’s ability to move massive amounts of iot data from the edge to the cloud in real time, and also highlighting the concept of infinite change and embracing everything, just like eKuiper With flexible and agile integration capabilities, it can quickly integrate and build edge side streaming data solutions on various edge computing frameworks.
eKuiper can easily be used in various iot edge usage scenarios: real-time processing of production line data in the industrial Internet of Things; In the field of vehicle-road collaboration, vehicle-end eKuiper works with cloud EMQX to achieve functions such as data acquisition, vehicle AI and vehicle rule engine. In the smart city scenario, real-time analysis of data from various urban facilities.
