A software edge gateway is an application that connects operational technology (OT) devices like sensors, PLCs, and industrial equipment to a standard protocol. This is crucial to ensure that OT device data can be effectively utilized and acted upon by the organization. HiveMQ Edge is an MQTT gateway and protocol converter that runs on standard hardware and converts protocols such as Modbus, OPC-UA, and Siemens into standards-based MQTT.
HiveMQ Edge is a software-based edge MQTT gateway and protocol converter that helps organizations bridge the OT/IT divide. It helps organize data into a Unified Namespace, making managing and streaming data across your infrastructure easier.
Break down data silos by seamlessly connecting legacy OT systems with modern IT infrastructure. Unlock operational data to enable more collaborative and efficient decision-making across your organization.
Lower operational costs by processing, filtering, and prioritizing data locally at the edge. Only the most relevant and valuable information is sent to central systems, reducing bandwidth usage and network costs.
Ensure continuous operations and zero data loss by buffering and forwarding data at the edge, even during connectivity disruptions. Trust that your critical information is always delivered securely and reliably.
Enable instant processing and transformation of data at the edge for faster detection of anomalies, process optimization, and reduced downtime. Gain actionable insights exactly where and when they matter most.
As more companies work toward IT/OT alignment, the CIO and the IT organization will be at the forefront of fostering relationships and changing the culture of the organization.

Pre-built protocol adapters to convert various device communication protocols into MQTT messages as well as templates to create your own custom adapters.
Workspace is our observability tool, an interactive canvas displaying all connected elements at the edge to help you identify what connections you have active at the edge and where messages are being sent.
HiveMQ Edge also features HiveMQ Data Hub, which can enhance the value of your IoT data. It is an integrated policy and transformation engine that validates, enforces, and manipulates data in motion to ensure data integrity and quality across your MQTT deployment from edge to cloud.
