Bosch IoT Device Management - will be discontinued by mid 2024

Open source basis

The Bosch IoT Suite is built on top of Eclipse IoT open source projects and industry standards. This open approach allows customers to enjoy all the benefits of fully managed cloud services while avoiding vendor lock-in. As another advantage, our partners and customers can influence the future development of the Bosch IoT Suite by participating in the underlying open source project communities.

Our strategy is to open and align all major elements of the Bosch IoT Suite within the open source ecosystem of Eclipse IoT.

Eclipse Kanto project

Eclipse Kanto is a modular IoT edge software stack for devices. It enables your IoT device with all the essentials: cloud connectivity and digital twins, local messaging, container management and software updates. All these basic services are configurable and remotely manageable by an IoT cloud ecosystem of your choice.
