+<p>The WireAsset component provides the following global (non per-channel) configuration parameters that can be used to customize component behavior:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>
+<p><strong>emit.all.channels</strong>: Specifies whether the values of all READ or READ_WRITE channels should be emitted when a channel event is received in listen mode. If set to true, the values for all channels will be read and emitted, if set to false, only the value for the channel related to the event will be emitted.</p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p><strong>timestamp.mode</strong>: Allows to configure how timestamps are emitted, the following modes are supported:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>
+<p><strong>NO_TIMESTAMPS</strong>: no timestamp-related properties will be emitted.</p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p><strong>PER_CHANNEL</strong>: the component will emit a driver-generated timestamp property per channel, as the value of the <code>&lt;channel name&gt;_timestamp</code> property.</p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p><strong>SINGLE_ASSET_GENERATED</strong>: the component will emit a single timestamp per request, generated by the Asset itself before emitting the envelope as the value of the <code>assetTimestamp</code> property.</p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p><strong>SINGLE_DRIVER_GENERATED_MAX</strong> and <strong>SINGLE_DRIVER_GENERATED_MIN</strong>: the component will emit a single driver generated timestamp being respectively the max (most recent) or min (oldest) among the timestamps of the channels as the value of the <code>assetTimestamp</code> property.</p>
+</li>
+</ul>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p><strong>emit.errors</strong>: Specifies whether channel specific errors should be included or not in emitted envelopes. If enabled, the component will add an additional property per channel, named <code>&lt;channel_name&gt;_error</code>. If the channel operation fails, the property value will be an error message reported by the Driver, if the operation succeeds the property value will be the empty string.</p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p><strong>emit.connection.errors</strong>: Specifies whether the component should emit an envelope in case of a general connection exception reported by the Driver (for example due to the fact that the connection with a remote device cannot be established). The error message associated with the exception will be emitted in a property named <code>assetError</code>. In case of connection exception, channel values are not available and no channel related properties will be emitted. If the <strong>timestamp.mode</strong> property is set to a value other than <strong>NO_TIMESTAMPS</strong>, the component will also emit a <code>assetTimestamp</code> property reporting current system time. This property will be ignored if <strong>emit.errors</strong> is disabled. Example of emitted envelope contents:</p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p><strong>WireEnvelope</strong></p>
+<ul>
+<li><strong>WireRecord[0]</strong><ul>
+<li><strong>assetName</strong>: <code>myAsset</code> (type = <code>STRING</code>)</li>
+<li><strong>assetError</strong>: <code>Connection refused</code> (type = <code>STRING</code>)</li>
+<li><strong>assetTimestamp</strong>: <code>1597925200</code> (type = <code>LONG</code>)</li>
+</ul>
+</li>
+</ul>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p><strong>emit.on.change</strong>: If set to true, this component will include a channel value in the output emitted in Kura Wires only if it differs from the last emitted value for that channel. Channel errors will always be emitted if <strong>emit.errors</strong> is set to <code>true</code>. If as a result of a read operation no changes are detected in any referenced channel, the Asset will emit an envelope containing no channel values, unless <strong>emit.empty.envelopes</strong> is set to <code>false</code>.</p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p><strong>emit.empty.envelopes</strong>: If set to false, this component will not emit empty envelopes.</p>

It is a smart application container that enables remote management of such gateways and provides a wide range of APIs for allowing you to write and deploy your own IoT application.</p> <p>Kura runs on top of the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) and leverages OSGi, a dynamic component system for Java, to simplify the process of writing reusable software building blocks. Kura APIs offer  easy access to the underlying hardware including serial ports, GPS, watchdog, USB, GPIOs, I2C, etc. It also offer OSGI bundle to simplify the management of network configurations, the communication with IoT servers, and the remote management of the gateway.</p> <p>Kura components are designed as configurable OSGi Declarative Service exposing service API and raising events. While several Kura components are in pure Java, others are invoked through JNI and have a dependency on the Linux operating system.</p> <p>Kura comes with the following services:</p> <p></p> <ul> <li>I/O Services<ul> <li>Serial port access through javax.comm 2.0 API or OSGi I/O connection</li> <li>USB access and events through javax.usb, HID API, custom extensions</li> <li>Bluetooth access through javax.bluetooth or OSGi I/O connection</li> <li>Position Service for GPS information from an NMEA stream</li> <li>Clock Service for the synchronization of the system clock</li> <li>Kura API for GPIO/PWM/I2C/SPI access</li> </ul> </li> <li>Data Services<ul> <li>Store and forward functionality for the telemetry data collected by the gateway and published to remote servers.</li> <li>Policy-driven publishing system, which abstracts the application developer from the complexity of the network layer and the publishing protocol used. Eclipse Paho and its MQTT client provide the default messaging library used.</li> </ul> </li> <li>Cloud Services<ul> <li>Easy to use API layer for IoT application to communicate with a remote server. In addition to simple publish/subscribe,   the Cloud Service API simplifies the implementation of more complex interaction flows like request/response or remote resource management.   Allow for a single connection to a remote server to be shared across more than one application in the gateway providing the necessary topic partitioning.</li> </ul> </li> <li>Configuration Service<ul> <li>Leverage the OSGi specifications ConfigurationAdmin and MetaType to provide a snapshot service to import/export the configuration of all registered services in the container.</li> </ul> </li> <li>Remote Management<ul> <li>Allow for remote management of the IoT applications installed in Kura including their deployment, upgrade and configuration management. The Remote Management   service relies on the Configuration Service and the Cloud Service.</li> </ul> </li> <li>Networking<ul> <li>Provide API for introspects and configure the network interfaces available in the gateway like Ethernet, Wifi, and Cellular modems.</li> </ul> </li> <li>Watchdog Service<ul> <li>Register critical components to the Watchdog Service, which will force a system reset through the hardware watchdog when a problem is detected.</li> </ul> </li> <li>Web administration interface<ul> <li>Offer a web-based management console running within the Kura container to manage the gateway.</li> </ul> </li> <li>Drivers and Assets<ul> <li>A unified model is introduced to simplify the communication with the devices attached to the gateway. The Driver encapsulates the communication protocol and its configuration parameters, while the Asset, which is generic across Drivers, models the information data channels towards the device. When an Asset is created, a Mirror of the device is automatically available for on-demand read and writes via Java APIs or via Cloud through remote messages.</li> </ul> </li> <li>Wires<ul> <li>Offers modular and visual data flow programming tool to define data collection and processing pipelines at the edge by simply selecting components from a palette and wiring them together. This way users can, for example, configure an Asset, periodically acquire data from its channels, store them in the gateway, filter or aggregate them using powerful SQL queries, and send the results to the Cloud.

Defining custom stacks that support other cloud platforms was possible, but the resulting implementations were affected by the following limitations:</p> <ul> <li> <p>The legacy APIs assume that the underlying messaging protocol is MQTT. This assumption spans across all API layers, from the low level <code>MQTTDataTrasport</code> to the high level <code>CloudClient</code>. This makes quite difficult to implement cloud stacks that use other protocols like AMQP or HTTP.</p> </li> <li> <p>The <code>CloudClient</code> API, which was the recommended way for applications to interface with a cloud stack, enforce the following MQTT topic structure:   <pre><code>#account-name/#device-id/#app-id/&lt;app-topic&gt;\n</code></pre>   This topic hierarchy, which is Kapua related, might be too restrictive or too loose for other cloud platforms, for example:</p> <ul> <li>The Eclipse IoT working group namespace allows authenticated devices to omit the <code>accont-name</code> and <code>device-id</code> parameters in the topic. Moreover, telemetry, alert and event message topics must start respectively the <code>t/</code>, <code>a/</code> and <code>e/</code> prefixes. Adhering to this specification is not possible for a cloud stack that implements the legacy APIs.</li> <li>The AWS cloud platform allows publishing on virtually any topic, using a <code>CloudClient</code> would be quite restrictive in this case. A way for overcoming this limitation for an application might be using the DataService layer directly, adversely affecting portability.</li> <li>The Cumulocity cloud platform allows publishing only on a limited set of topics, and most of the application generated information is placed in the payload encoded in CSV. Using <code>CloudClient</code> in this case makes difficult for the cloud stack to enforce that the messages are published on the correct topics. Moreover, the cloud stack in this case must also convert from <code>KuraPayload</code> to CSV, this can be currently achieved only by introducing rigid conversion rules, that might not be enough to support all message formats.</li> </ul> </li> <li> <p>Applications that use the current APIs are not portable across cloud platforms.

It is specifically designed for use in Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) architectures to ensure a high level of reliability and interoperability.</p> <p>The specification aims fulfill the following 3 goals:</p> <ol> <li>Define a common MQTT topic namespace.</li> <li>Define a common MQTT state management.</li> <li>Define a common MQTT payload.</li> </ol> <p>To achieve that, the Eclipse Sparkplug specification defines an architecture (see picture below) and 4 main actors:</p> <ul> <li>Device: a collection of related data points, which may represent a physical device (like a PLC, a set of sensors, etc.) and that notify the value or quality change of their data points. In this cloud connection, a Device is represented by the attached Cloud Publishers.</li> <li>Edge Node: the gateway that is responsible of the interaction with the MQTT broker and that estabilished sessions with the data-consuming Host Applications. This Cloud Connection assumes the role of Edge Node.</li> <li>MQTT Server: a MQTT server that supports the v3.1.1 (or v5.0) version of the protocol.</li> <li>Host Application: the data-consuming application that subscribes to the MQTT messages generated by the Edge Nodes. A Primary Host Application is responsible of controlling and monitoring Edge Nodes, which can be configured to modify their behavior based on the state of the Primary Host Application (for example, the application goes offline). You can imagine the Primary Host Application for Eclipse Kura being Eclipse Kapua.</li> </ul> <p> </p> Image from https://sparkplug.eclipse.org/specification/version/3.0/documents/sparkplug-specification-3.0.0.pdf <p>The main principles upon which the Specification is based on can be summarized as follows:</p> <ol> <li>PubSub Protocol: this is the main topology upon which the architecture is developed.</li> <li>Report by Exception (RBE): messages need to be sent by the Edge Node only when values at the edge change, and the message should contain only the value/metrics that changed. There is no need for continuos polling; although it is higly discouraged, it is not mandatory to have Edge Nodes apply the RBE.</li> <li>Continuos Session Awareness: Host Applications are aware of the state of the Edge Nodes, and Edge Nodes are aware of the state of the Host Applications. This continuos session awareness is achieved by the means of birth and death certificates and state messages (continue the reading to find out more) and is the key to allow reporting by exception.</li> <li>Birth and Death certificates: these messages represent the state of Edge Nodes and Devices (online/offline + data that will be reported). The birth messages are always the first ones that are sent from the Edge Node, and the delivery of death certificates is ensured through the MQTT Will message, even if the connection is lost ungracefully. The birth messages always contain all the metrics that the Device or Edge Node will ever report on. If a new metric is added or a metric gets removed, then a new session needs to be estabilished.</li> <li> <p>Connection Persistence: with the mechanisms above, the connection does not need to be persistent.

When a \"container start\" event is triggered it intercepts the information regarding the image used to spin up the container and starts performing the container authenticity checks.</li> <li>Allowlist: Firstly, it checks if the digest of the image used to run the container can be found in the Eclipse Kura allowlist. If so, the container is allowed to run. If not, Eclipse Kura proceeds with the image signature verification.</li> <li>Signature verification: If no trust anchor (i.e. a public key or a X509 certificate depending on the signature mechanism) is available for the verification process to happen, the container is not allowed to run. If one is available, the image signature is verified and the allowlist is updated accordingly.</li> </ul> <p>This flow applies to both containers managed by Eclipse Kura itself and containers ran directly by the user via CLI, allowing for a fine-grained control over the container images that can be deployed on the Eclipse Kura instance.</p> <ul> <li>Unmanaged containers: Eclipse Kura allows the user to define a list of container images that can be deployed on the platform. This is done by adding the image digests to the allowlist. When a container is started, Eclipse Kura checks if the image digest is in the allowlist and, if so, allows the container to run. This is meant to be used by users who, for any reason, need to run a container outside the Eclipse Kura framework but still want the safety guarantees provided by pinning the images to a specific digest.</li> <li>Managed containers: For containers ran by the framework, Eclipse Kura also allows the user to provide a trust anchor to be used for the signature verification process. This allows the user to use a mutable tag when specifying the container image, without giving up the required authenticity checks. Once the image is verified, its digest is stored within the Eclipse Kura allowlist, permitting it to be ran both from Eclipse Kura and the CLI without the need for an Internet connection.

Please read the following note before proceeding with manual changes of the Linux networking configuration.</p> <p>Warning</p> <p>It is NOT recommended performing manual editing of the Linux networking configuration files when the gateway configuration is being managed through Kura. While Linux may correctly accept manual changes, Kura may not be able to interpret the new configuration resulting in an inconsistent state.</p> <p>When a new firewall configuration is submitted, Kura immediately applies it using the iptables service provided by the OS. Moreover, the rules are stored in the filesystem and a new Kura snapshot is generated containing the new configuration. At the next startup, the firewall service in the OS will re-apply them and Kura will check the firewall configuration against the one contained in the last snapshot. In this way, the user can update the snapshot with the needed rules and apply them to the system using the webUI or modify the <code>snapshot_0.xml</code> before the first start of Kura.</p> <p>In order to allow a better coexistence between Kura and external applications that need to modify firewall rules, Kura writes its rules to a set of custom iptables chains. They are input-kura, output-kura, forward-kura, forward-kura-pf and forward-kura-ipf for the filter table and input-kura, output-kura, prerouting-kura, prerouting-kura-pf, postrouting-kura, postrouting-kura-pf and postrouting-kura-ipf for the nat table.

You can verify this operation by typing characters and pressing . The  function (specifically a \u2018\\n\u2019 character) signals to the Kura application to echo the buffered characters back to the serial device (minicom in this case). <p>Upon startup, minicom sends an initialization string to the serial device. These characters are sent to the minicom terminal because they were echoed back by Kura listening on the port at the other end of the null modem cable.</p> <p>When you are done, exit minicom by pressing \u2018 a\u2019, then \u2018q\u2019, and finally \u2018\u2019. Doing so brings you back to the Linux command prompt. <p>This tutorial instructed you how to write and deploy a Kura bundle on your target device that listens for serial data (coming from the minicom terminal and being received on [device_node_1]). This tutorial also demonstrated that the application echoes data back to the same serial port that is received in minicom, which acts a serial device that sends and receives data.

For example, if a in-memory database instance is used by a DataService instance, during the test the database can be filled up to the maximum capacity to verify if this causes any issue.</p> <p>Regarding point 2., it should be noted that heap memory is not necessarily backed by physical memory immediately after JVM startup.

There are nodes that only produce outputs and ones that only consume inputs, which usually represent the start and the end of the flow. The inner-graph nodes process the inputs and produce outputs for downstream nodes. The processing unit of a node executes independently and does not affect the execution of other nodes. Thus, the nodes are highly reusable and portable. </p> <p></p> <p>In this way, the developer can easily prototype its solution without sacrificing flexibility and working at a high level of abstraction: the graph can be extended adding new nodes or drawing new connections. Furthermore, the developer can take advantage of the Eclipse Marketplace integration, being able to use open source or commercial building blocks into the final solution, by simply dragging and dropping a link to the Eclipse Marketplace in the Administrative Web UI.</p>"},{"location":"kura-wires/introduction/#data-model","title":"Data Model","text":"<p>The communication over a single graph edge (Wire) is message oriented, messages are called WireEnvelopes.

Moreover, the old Db Store interacts with the database using a set of hardcoded SQL queries. This fact makes it difficult to use it with different databases since the syntax of the queries is usually database-specific.</p> <p>The new components use the <code>org.eclipse.kura.wire.store.provider.WireRecordStoreProvider</code> and <code>org.eclipse.kura.wire.store.provider.QueryableWireRecordStoreProvider</code> APIs introduced in 5.3.0 allowing to use them with generic data store implementations.</p> <p>Please note that Wire Record Query component is not portable by nature, since it allows to execute an arbitrary user defined query.

It can be seen as partition of the MQTT topic namespace. For example, access control lists can be defined so that users are only given access to the child topics of a given <code>account_name</code>. <code>client_id</code> Identifies a single gateway device within an account (typically the MAC address of a gateway\u2019s primary network interface). The client_id maps to the Client Identifier (Client ID) as defined in the MQTT specifications. <code>app_id</code> Unique string identifier for application (e.g., \u201cCONF-V1\u201d, \u201cCONF-V2\u201d, etc.). <code>resource_id</code> Identifies a resource(s) that is owned and managed by a particular application. Management of resources (e.g., sensors, actuators, local files, or configuration options) includes listing them, reading the latest value, or updating them to a new value. A resource_id may be a hierarchical topic, where, for example, \u201csensors/temp\u201d may identify a temperature sensor and \u201csensor/hum\u201d a humidity sensor. <p>A gateway, as identified by a specific client_id and belonging to a particular account_name, may have one or more applications running on it (e.g., \u201capp_id1\u201d, \u201capp_id2\u201d, etc.). Each application can manage one or more resources identified by a distinct resource_id(s).</p> <p>Based on this criterion, an IoT application running on an IoT gateway may be viewed in terms of the resources it owns and manages as well as the unsolicited events it reports.</p>"},{"location":"references/mqtt-namespace/#mqtt-requestresponse-conversations","title":"MQTT Request/Response Conversations","text":"<p>Solicited interactions require a request/response message pattern to be established over MQTT.

To this end we will use an Autoencoder model. To understand why we choose such model we need to understand how it works. From Wikipedia:</p> <p>An autoencoder is a type of artificial neural network used to learn efficient codings of unlabeled data (unsupervised learning). The encoding is validated and refined by attempting to regenerate the input from the encoding. The autoencoder learns a representation (encoding) for a set of data, typically for dimensionality reduction, by training the network to ignore insignificant data (\u201cnoise\u201d).</p> <p>Another application for autoencoders is anomaly detection. By learning to replicate the most salient features in the training data [...] the model is encouraged to learn to precisely reproduce the most frequently observed characteristics. When facing anomalies, the model should worsen its reconstruction performance. In most cases, only data with normal instances are used to train the autoencoder; in others, the frequency of anomalies is small compared to the observation set so that its contribution to the learned representation could be ignored. After training, the autoencoder will accurately reconstruct \"normal\" data, while failing to do so with unfamiliar anomalous data. Reconstruction error (the error between the original data and its low dimensional reconstruction) is used as an anomaly score to detect anomalies</p> <p>In simple terms:</p> <ul> <li>The Autoencoder is a artificial neural network model that learns how to reconstruct the input data at the output.</li> <li>If trained on \"normal\" data, it learns to recontruct only normal data and fails to reconstruct anomalies.</li> <li>We can detect anomalies by computing the reconstruction error of the Autoencoder. If the error is above a certain threshold (which we will decide) the input sample is an anomaly.</li> </ul> <p>Why did we choose this approach over others?</p> <ul> <li>The Autoencoder falls in the \"Unsupervised Learning\" category: it doesn't need labeled data to be trained i.e. we don't need to go through all the dataset and manually label the samples as \"normal\" or \"anomaly\" (Supervised Learning).</li> <li>Simpler data collection: we just need to provide it with the \"normal\" data.

Min-max scaling) shifts and rescales values so that they end up ranging from 0 to 1. This can be done by subtracting the min value and dividing by the max minus the min.</p> <p>x' = $\\frac{x - min(x)}{max(x) - min(x)}$</p> <p>Standardization makes the values of each feature in the data have zero-mean (when subtracting the mean in the numerator) and unit-variance.

It is a smart application container that enables remote management of such gateways and provides a wide range of APIs for allowing you to write and deploy your own IoT application.</p> <p>Kura runs on top of the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) and leverages OSGi, a dynamic component system for Java, to simplify the process of writing reusable software building blocks. Kura APIs offer  easy access to the underlying hardware including serial ports, GPS, watchdog, USB, GPIOs, I2C, etc. It also offer OSGI bundle to simplify the management of network configurations, the communication with IoT servers, and the remote management of the gateway.</p> <p>Kura components are designed as configurable OSGi Declarative Service exposing service API and raising events. While several Kura components are in pure Java, others are invoked through JNI and have a dependency on the Linux operating system.</p> <p>Kura comes with the following services:</p> <p></p> <ul> <li>I/O Services<ul> <li>Serial port access through javax.comm 2.0 API or OSGi I/O connection</li> <li>USB access and events through javax.usb, HID API, custom extensions</li> <li>Bluetooth access through javax.bluetooth or OSGi I/O connection</li> <li>Position Service for GPS information from an NMEA stream</li> <li>Clock Service for the synchronization of the system clock</li> <li>Kura API for GPIO/PWM/I2C/SPI access</li> </ul> </li> <li>Data Services<ul> <li>Store and forward functionality for the telemetry data collected by the gateway and published to remote servers.</li> <li>Policy-driven publishing system, which abstracts the application developer from the complexity of the network layer and the publishing protocol used. Eclipse Paho and its MQTT client provide the default messaging library used.</li> </ul> </li> <li>Cloud Services<ul> <li>Easy to use API layer for IoT application to communicate with a remote server. In addition to simple publish/subscribe,   the Cloud Service API simplifies the implementation of more complex interaction flows like request/response or remote resource management.   Allow for a single connection to a remote server to be shared across more than one application in the gateway providing the necessary topic partitioning.</li> </ul> </li> <li>Configuration Service<ul> <li>Leverage the OSGi specifications ConfigurationAdmin and MetaType to provide a snapshot service to import/export the configuration of all registered services in the container.</li> </ul> </li> <li>Remote Management<ul> <li>Allow for remote management of the IoT applications installed in Kura including their deployment, upgrade and configuration management. The Remote Management   service relies on the Configuration Service and the Cloud Service.</li> </ul> </li> <li>Networking<ul> <li>Provide API for introspects and configure the network interfaces available in the gateway like Ethernet, Wifi, and Cellular modems.</li> </ul> </li> <li>Watchdog Service<ul> <li>Register critical components to the Watchdog Service, which will force a system reset through the hardware watchdog when a problem is detected.</li> </ul> </li> <li>Web administration interface<ul> <li>Offer a web-based management console running within the Kura container to manage the gateway.</li> </ul> </li> <li>Drivers and Assets<ul> <li>A unified model is introduced to simplify the communication with the devices attached to the gateway. The Driver encapsulates the communication protocol and its configuration parameters, while the Asset, which is generic across Drivers, models the information data channels towards the device. When an Asset is created, a Mirror of the device is automatically available for on-demand read and writes via Java APIs or via Cloud through remote messages.</li> </ul> </li> <li>Wires<ul> <li>Offers modular and visual data flow programming tool to define data collection and processing pipelines at the edge by simply selecting components from a palette and wiring them together. This way users can, for example, configure an Asset, periodically acquire data from its channels, store them in the gateway, filter or aggregate them using powerful SQL queries, and send the results to the Cloud. The Eclipse Kura Marketplace is a repository from which additional Wires components can be installed into your Kura runtime with a simple drag-and-drop.</li> </ul> </li> </ul> <p></p>"},{"location":"administration/application-management/","title":"Application Management","text":""},{"location":"administration/application-management/#package-installation","title":"Package Installation","text":"<p>After developing your application and generating a deployment package that contains the bundles to be deployed (refer to the Development section for more information), you may install it on the gateway using the Packages option in the System area of the Kura Gateway Administration Console as shown below.</p> <p></p> <p>Upon a successful installation, the new component appears in the Services list (shown as the Heater example in these screen captures).

This assumption spans across all API layers, from the low level <code>MQTTDataTrasport</code> to the high level <code>CloudClient</code>. This makes quite difficult to implement cloud stacks that use other protocols like AMQP or HTTP.</p> </li> <li> <p>The <code>CloudClient</code> API, which was the recommended way for applications to interface with a cloud stack, enforce the following MQTT topic structure:   <pre><code>#account-name/#device-id/#app-id/&lt;app-topic&gt;\n</code></pre>   This topic hierarchy, which is Kapua related, might be too restrictive or too loose for other cloud platforms, for example:</p> <ul> <li>The Eclipse IoT working group namespace allows authenticated devices to omit the <code>accont-name</code> and <code>device-id</code> parameters in the topic. Moreover, telemetry, alert and event message topics must start respectively the <code>t/</code>, <code>a/</code> and <code>e/</code> prefixes. Adhering to this specification is not possible for a cloud stack that implements the legacy APIs.</li> <li>The AWS cloud platform allows publishing on virtually any topic, using a <code>CloudClient</code> would be quite restrictive in this case. A way for overcoming this limitation for an application might be using the DataService layer directly, adversely affecting portability.</li> <li>The Cumulocity cloud platform allows publishing only on a limited set of topics, and most of the application generated information is placed in the payload encoded in CSV. Using <code>CloudClient</code> in this case makes difficult for the cloud stack to enforce that the messages are published on the correct topics. Moreover, the cloud stack in this case must also convert from <code>KuraPayload</code> to CSV, this can be currently achieved only by introducing rigid conversion rules, that might not be enough to support all message formats.</li> </ul> </li> <li> <p>Applications that use the current APIs are not portable across cloud platforms.

In the previous model this aspect was covered by the <code>Cloudlet</code> APIs that are now replaced by <code>RequestHandler</code> APIs</p> <p>Legacy <code>Cloudlet</code> implementations are defined by extending a base class, <code>Cloudlet</code>, which takes care of handling the invocation of the <code>doGet()</code>, <code>doPut()</code>, <code>doPost()</code> ... methods, and of correlating request and response messages. Messages were sent and received through a <code>CloudClient</code>.</p> <p>More explicitly, <code>Cloudlet</code> only works with control topics whose structure is <pre><code>$EDC/&lt;account-name&gt;/&lt;device-id&gt;/&lt;app-id&gt;/&lt;method&gt;/&lt;resource-path&gt;\n</code></pre> and also expects the identifier of the sender and the correlation identifier in the <code>KuraPayload</code>.</p> <p>In the previous model, there is no way for a cloud stack implementor to customize the aspects above, which are hardcoded in the <code>Cloudlet</code> base class.</p> <p>The new model delegates these aspects to some component of the cloud stack, and requires applications that want to support command and control to register themselves as <code>RequestHandler</code> to a <code>RequestHandlerRegistry</code> instance.</p> <p>In order to ease porting old applications to the new model, some of the concepts of the old Cloudlet APIs are still present, this can be seen by looking at the <code>RequestHandler</code> interface definition:</p> <pre><code>public interface RequestHandler {\n\n    public KuraMessage doGet(RequestHandlerContext context, KuraMessage reqMessage) throws KuraException;\n\n    public KuraMessage doPut(RequestHandlerContext context, KuraMessage reqMessage) throws KuraException;\n\n    public KuraMessage doPost(RequestHandlerContext context, KuraMessage reqMessage) throws KuraException;\n\n    public KuraMessage doDel(RequestHandlerContext context, KuraMessage reqMessage) throws KuraException;\n\n    public KuraMessage doExec(RequestHandlerContext context, KuraMessage reqMessage) throws KuraException;\n}\n</code></pre> <p>A <code>RequestHandler</code> invocation involves the following parameters:</p> <p>Request parameters:</p> <ul> <li>method: (GET, PUT, POST, DEL, EXEC) that identifies the <code>RequestHandler</code> method to be called</li> <li>request message: A set of key-value pairs and/or binary body contained in the <code>KuraPayload</code> wrapped inside the <code>KuraMessage</code>.</li> <li>resources: A <code>List&lt;String&gt;</code> of positional parameters available under the well known <code>args</code> key in the provided <code>KuraMessage</code> properties.</li> </ul> <p>Response parameters:</p> <ul> <li>response message: A set of key-value pairs and/or binary body contained in the <code>KuraPayload</code> wrapped inside the returned <code>KuraMessage</code>.</li> <li>status: A numeric code reporting operation completion state, determined as follows:</li> <li>200, if <code>RequestHandler</code> methods returns without throwing exceptions.</li> <li>400, if <code>RequestHandler</code> methods throws a <code>KuraException</code> with <code>KuraErrorCode</code> == BAD_REQUEST</li> <li>404, if <code>RequestHandler</code> methods throws a <code>KuraException</code> with <code>KuraErrorCode</code> == NOT_FOUND</li> <li>500, if <code>RequestHandler</code> methods throws a <code>KuraException</code> with other error codes.</li> <li>exception message: The message of the <code>KuraException</code> thrown by the <code>RequestHandler</code> methods, if any.</li> <li>exception stack trace: The stack trace of the <code>KuraException</code> thrown by the <code>RequestHandler</code> methods, if any.</li> </ul> <p>The parameters above are the same involved in current Cloudlet calls.

It is specifically designed for use in Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) architectures to ensure a high level of reliability and interoperability.</p> <p>The specification aims fulfill the following 3 goals:</p> <ol> <li>Define a common MQTT topic namespace.</li> <li>Define a common MQTT state management.</li> <li>Define a common MQTT payload.</li> </ol> <p>To achieve that, the Eclipse Sparkplug specification defines an architecture (see picture below) and 4 main actors:</p> <ul> <li>Device: a collection of related data points, which may represent a physical device (like a PLC, a set of sensors, etc.) and that notify the value or quality change of their data points. In this cloud connection, a Device is represented by the attached Cloud Publishers.</li> <li>Edge Node: the gateway that is responsible of the interaction with the MQTT broker and that estabilished sessions with the data-consuming Host Applications. This Cloud Connection assumes the role of Edge Node.</li> <li>MQTT Server: a MQTT server that supports the v3.1.1 (or v5.0) version of the protocol.</li> <li>Host Application: the data-consuming application that subscribes to the MQTT messages generated by the Edge Nodes. A Primary Host Application is responsible of controlling and monitoring Edge Nodes, which can be configured to modify their behavior based on the state of the Primary Host Application (for example, the application goes offline). You can imagine the Primary Host Application for Eclipse Kura being Eclipse Kapua.</li> </ul> <p> </p> Image from https://sparkplug.eclipse.org/specification/version/3.0/documents/sparkplug-specification-3.0.0.pdf <p>The main principles upon which the Specification is based on can be summarized as follows:</p> <ol> <li>PubSub Protocol: this is the main topology upon which the architecture is developed.</li> <li>Report by Exception (RBE): messages need to be sent by the Edge Node only when values at the edge change, and the message should contain only the value/metrics that changed. There is no need for continuos polling; although it is higly discouraged, it is not mandatory to have Edge Nodes apply the RBE.</li> <li>Continuos Session Awareness: Host Applications are aware of the state of the Edge Nodes, and Edge Nodes are aware of the state of the Host Applications. This continuos session awareness is achieved by the means of birth and death certificates and state messages (continue the reading to find out more) and is the key to allow reporting by exception.</li> <li>Birth and Death certificates: these messages represent the state of Edge Nodes and Devices (online/offline + data that will be reported). The birth messages are always the first ones that are sent from the Edge Node, and the delivery of death certificates is ensured through the MQTT Will message, even if the connection is lost ungracefully. The birth messages always contain all the metrics that the Device or Edge Node will ever report on. If a new metric is added or a metric gets removed, then a new session needs to be estabilished.</li> <li> <p>Connection Persistence: with the mechanisms above, the connection does not need to be persistent. For example, an Edge Node that disconnects gracefully with a MQTT DISCONNECT packet will not be seen as \"dead\" from the host application because no death certificate has been triggered (Will messages are sent only on failures). Hence, the Edge Node can implement a logic where it remains connected only during the timeframe needed for sending the new data.</p> <p>Warning</p> <p>This Cloud Connection maintains a persistent connection to the MQTT server.</p> </li> </ol>"},{"location":"cloud-platform/kura-sparkplug/#eclipse-sparkplug-topic-namespace","title":"Eclipse Sparkplug Topic Namespace","text":"<p>All clients using the specification must adhere to the following topic namespace:</p> <pre><code>namespace/group_id/message_type/edge_node_id/[device_id]\n</code></pre> <p>where:</p> <ul> <li><code>namespace</code>: defines the structure of the remaining elements and the encoding for the payload.

An optional Primary Host Application ID can be specified (see picture below) to make the Cloud Connection wait until the Primary Host Application is online before publishing NBIRTH and DBIRTH messages.</li> <li>Edge Node Sparkplug Session Termination: upon disconnection, the Edge Node follows the required specification statements. In particular, multiple space-separated Server URIs can be specified in the component's configuration (see picture below).

When the last server fails to connect, then the traversal is restarted from the start of the list.</li> <li>Edge Node NCMD handler: upon reception of a valid NCMD message, the Transport layer checks if it contains a Node Control/Rebirth metric, and, if set to <code>true</code>, restarts the session estabilishment procedure without sending an MQTT CONNECT packet (client connection is not closed, only BIRTH messages are re-sent).</li> </ul> <p></p> <p>The Sparkplug Data Transport layer is configured to wait for a random period of time between 0sec and 5sec before each connection attempt.

If so, the container is allowed to run. If not, Eclipse Kura proceeds with the image signature verification.</li> <li>Signature verification: If no trust anchor (i.e. a public key or a X509 certificate depending on the signature mechanism) is available for the verification process to happen, the container is not allowed to run. If one is available, the image signature is verified and the allowlist is updated accordingly.</li> </ul> <p>This flow applies to both containers managed by Eclipse Kura itself and containers ran directly by the user via CLI, allowing for a fine-grained control over the container images that can be deployed on the Eclipse Kura instance.</p> <ul> <li>Unmanaged containers: Eclipse Kura allows the user to define a list of container images that can be deployed on the platform. This is done by adding the image digests to the allowlist. When a container is started, Eclipse Kura checks if the image digest is in the allowlist and, if so, allows the container to run. This is meant to be used by users who, for any reason, need to run a container outside the Eclipse Kura framework but still want the safety guarantees provided by pinning the images to a specific digest.</li> <li>Managed containers: For containers ran by the framework, Eclipse Kura also allows the user to provide a trust anchor to be used for the signature verification process. This allows the user to use a mutable tag when specifying the container image, without giving up the required authenticity checks. Once the image is verified, its digest is stored within the Eclipse Kura allowlist, permitting it to be ran both from Eclipse Kura and the CLI without the need for an Internet connection. When a new image is published, the user can simply trigger the pull. The verification process will update the digest automatically.</li> </ul> <p>Note that the user can still directly provide an image digest when running an Eclipse Kura-managed container. This will prevent the Eclipse Kura automatic signature verification process to run. This feature is meant to be used when:</p> <ul> <li>the user already ensured the image authenticity and does not want to go through the verification process again</li> <li>the image was not signed but the user still wants the enforcement trust guarantees provided by Eclipse Kura</li> </ul>"},{"location":"core-services/container-orchestration-image-auth/#unmanaged-containers","title":"Unmanaged containers","text":"<p>Regarding the containers not managed by Eclipse Kura, the Container Orchestration service provides a security feature which enforces the containers allowed to run on the system.

This provides a detailed representation of the current state of that interface, such as its type, whether it is currently up, and its current address, which is returned by the getNetInterfaceAddresses() method as a List of NetInterfaceAddress objects.

If your hardware device has integrated serial ports, contact your hardware device manufacturer or review the documentation to find out how the ports are named in the operating system. The device identifiers should be similar to the following:</p> <pre><code>/dev/ttyS*xx*\n/dev/ttyUSB*xx*\n/dev/ttyACM*xx*\n</code></pre> <p>If you are using USB-to-Serial adapters, Linux usually allocates the associated device nodes dynamically at the time of insertion. In order to determine what they are, run the following command at a terminal on the embedded gateway:</p> <pre><code>tail -f /var/log/syslog\n</code></pre> <p>Warning</p> <p>Depending on your specific Linux implementation, other possible log files may be: /var/log/kern.log, /var/log/kernel, or /var/log/dmesg.</p> <p>With the above command running, insert your USB-to-Serial adapter. You should see output similar to the following:</p> <pre><code>root@localhost:/root&gt; tail -f /var/log/syslog\nAug 15 18:43:47 localhost kernel: usb 3-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 3\nAug 15 18:43:47 localhost kernel: pl2303 3-2:1.0: pl2303 converter detected\nAug 15 18:43:47 localhost kernel: usb 3-2: pl2303 converter now attached to ttyUSB10\n</code></pre> <p>In this example, our device is a PL2303-compatible device and is allocated a device node of \u201c/dev/ttyUSB10\u201d. While your results may differ, the key is to identify the \u201ctty\u201d device that was allocated. For the rest of this tutorial, this device will be referred to as [device_node_1], which in this example is /dev/ttyUSB10. During development, it is also important to keep in mind that these values are dynamic; therefore, from one boot to the next and one insertion to the next, these values may change. To stop \u2018tail\u2019 from running in your console, escape with \u2018 c\u2019. <p>If you are using two USB-to-Serial adapters, repeat the above procedure for the second serial port.

For example, if a in-memory database instance is used by a DataService instance, during the test the database can be filled up to the maximum capacity to verify if this causes any issue.</p> <p>Regarding point 2., it should be noted that heap memory is not necessarily backed by physical memory immediately after JVM startup.

There are nodes that only produce outputs and ones that only consume inputs, which usually represent the start and the end of the flow.

The client_id maps to the Client Identifier (Client ID) as defined in the MQTT specifications. <code>app_id</code> Unique string identifier for application (e.g., \u201cCONF-V1\u201d, \u201cCONF-V2\u201d, etc.). <code>resource_id</code> Identifies a resource(s) that is owned and managed by a particular application. Management of resources (e.g., sensors, actuators, local files, or configuration options) includes listing them, reading the latest value, or updating them to a new value. A resource_id may be a hierarchical topic, where, for example, \u201csensors/temp\u201d may identify a temperature sensor and \u201csensor/hum\u201d a humidity sensor. <p>A gateway, as identified by a specific client_id and belonging to a particular account_name, may have one or more applications running on it (e.g., \u201capp_id1\u201d, \u201capp_id2\u201d, etc.). Each application can manage one or more resources identified by a distinct resource_id(s).</p> <p>Based on this criterion, an IoT application running on an IoT gateway may be viewed in terms of the resources it owns and manages as well as the unsolicited events it reports.</p>"},{"location":"references/mqtt-namespace/#mqtt-requestresponse-conversations","title":"MQTT Request/Response Conversations","text":"<p>Solicited interactions require a request/response message pattern to be established over MQTT.

To this end we will use an Autoencoder model. To understand why we choose such model we need to understand how it works. From Wikipedia:</p> <p>An autoencoder is a type of artificial neural network used to learn efficient codings of unlabeled data (unsupervised learning). The encoding is validated and refined by attempting to regenerate the input from the encoding. The autoencoder learns a representation (encoding) for a set of data, typically for dimensionality reduction, by training the network to ignore insignificant data (\u201cnoise\u201d).</p> <p>Another application for autoencoders is anomaly detection. By learning to replicate the most salient features in the training data [...] the model is encouraged to learn to precisely reproduce the most frequently observed characteristics. When facing anomalies, the model should worsen its reconstruction performance. In most cases, only data with normal instances are used to train the autoencoder; in others, the frequency of anomalies is small compared to the observation set so that its contribution to the learned representation could be ignored. After training, the autoencoder will accurately reconstruct \"normal\" data, while failing to do so with unfamiliar anomalous data. Reconstruction error (the error between the original data and its low dimensional reconstruction) is used as an anomaly score to detect anomalies</p> <p>In simple terms:</p> <ul> <li>The Autoencoder is a artificial neural network model that learns how to reconstruct the input data at the output.</li> <li>If trained on \"normal\" data, it learns to recontruct only normal data and fails to reconstruct anomalies.</li> <li>We can detect anomalies by computing the reconstruction error of the Autoencoder. If the error is above a certain threshold (which we will decide) the input sample is an anomaly.</li> </ul> <p>Why did we choose this approach over others?</p> <ul> <li>The Autoencoder falls in the \"Unsupervised Learning\" category: it doesn't need labeled data to be trained i.e. we don't need to go through all the dataset and manually label the samples as \"normal\" or \"anomaly\" (Supervised Learning).</li> <li>Simpler data collection: we just need to provide it with the \"normal\" data.

Min-max scaling) shifts and rescales values so that they end up ranging from 0 to 1. This can be done by subtracting the min value and dividing by the max minus the min.</p> <p>x' = $\\frac{x - min(x)}{max(x) - min(x)}$</p> <p>Standardization makes the values of each feature in the data have zero-mean (when subtracting the mean in the numerator) and unit-variance.
