anyviz/cloudadapter repository overview

⁠What is AnyViz

The AnyViz⁠ cloud solution allows you to remotely monitor, control and analyse industrial PLCs, sensors and meters.

⁠What are the features of anyviz/cloudadapter

The cloud adapter is able to connect local devices via OPC-UA⁠, Modbus⁠, Siemens⁠, Beckhoff ADS⁠, EtherNet/IP⁠, M-Bus⁠ and BACnet⁠. The data is collected locally and transmitted to the AnyViz portal via an encrypted connection. If the internet connection is interrupted, the data is buffered locally. In addition, the Cloud Adapter can pass through local websites and VNC servers so that they can be embedded in the Cloud HMI.

⁠Running AnyViz cloud adapter

docker run -d -p 80:8888 -p 9999:9999 anyviz/cloudadapter

Open your browser (port 80) and start configuring via web interface.

⁠Running AnyViz cloud adapter including full AnyViz VPN⁠ support

docker run -d --net=host --cap-add=NET_ADMIN --device /dev/net/tun:/dev/net/tun anyviz/cloudadapter

The AnyViz Cloud Adapter requires some privileges to enable VPN connections.
