What Is a Route?

A route defines how a message is forwarded from a source endpoint to a destination endpoint.

Currently, IEF supports the following message forwarding paths:

  • SystemREST -> Service Bus: The REST gateway interface in the cloud is called to obtain file services on edge nodes.
  • SystemREST -> SystemEventBus: The REST gateway interface in the cloud is called to send messages to SystemEventBus (MQTT broker) on edge nodes.
  • SystemEventBus -> DIS/API Gateway: You can publish end device data to a custom topic in the MQTT broker of an edge node. IEF then forwards the device data to a DIS stream or an API Gateway address. Then, you can extract the data for processing and analysis. You must customize an MQTT topic when creating a message route.
