Data Rules is one of the critical and core functions within Fogwing IIoT Platform. The real value of IoT comes out when automating the action based on the device data. Data driven action is the best way to react based on the value of the data. Fogwing IIoT Platform simplify the rules declaration and actions without writing any code or script. Fogwing Data Rules executes the following actions based on the data driven action defined.
