Data gateway

A node on your network reads the systems you would rather not expose

The Data gateway module installs a node on the company network. Acquisition drivers run on the node, read the IT systems you point them at and bring the values into Muvia as named measures.

Illustrative example

Acquisition drivers for IT systems

  • Databases

    The new rows of a SQL Server table, or queries against PostgreSQL, MySQL, Oracle and MongoDB.

  • Services and metrics

    Queries against REST/HTTP services, and a Prometheus server or the /metrics page of its exporters.

  • Inside your network

    The node sits where the systems are, so they need not be opened to the outside. The passwords the drivers use stay sealed on the node.

  • A module of its own

    Data gateway is bought without Muvia Industrial. The protocol drivers for machines and PLCs stay with Muvia Industrial.

From the system to the measure, in three steps

  1. 01

    Install the node

    An administrator registers a node on a machine of the company network.

  2. 02

    Add a driver

    In node configuration you pick the type from cards grouped by family, then say what it connects to.

  3. 03

    Use the data

    The measures reach Muvia and are read in datasets, dashboards and alarms, beside your other sources.

Frequently asked questions

No. These drivers read IT systems and come with the Data gateway module. The drivers for PLCs and field protocols, such as Siemens S7, OPC UA and Modbus TCP, belong to Muvia Industrial.
