Real-Time Visualization for IIoT Data

The article discusses the use of Node-RED, time series databases (TSDBs), and Grafana in managing and visualizing data from Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) devices. Node-RED is an open source tool for connecting IIoT devices with APIs and online services using minimal coding. TSDBs are specialized systems that efficiently handle time-stamped or time series data, which is useful in IoT environments where changes over time are essential. Grafana is an open source monitoring and observability platform that excels at visualizing time series data, allowing users to create dynamic and interactive dashboards. The integration of these tools provides a complete solution for managing and visualizing IIoT data, enabling real-time monitoring, predictive maintenance strategies, and efficient handling of large data streams.
