EMQ X Kuiper - An edge lightweight IoT data analytics software

English | 简体中文

Overview

EMQ X Kuiper is an edge lightweight IoT data analytics / streaming software implemented by Golang, and it can be run at all kinds of resource constrained edge devices. One goal of Kuiper is to migrate the cloud streaming software frameworks (such as Apache SparkApache Storm and Apache Flink) to edge side. Kuiper references these cloud streaming frameworks, and also considered special requirement of edge analytics, and introduced rule engine, which is based on Source, SQL (business logic) and Sink, rule engine is used for developing streaming applications at edge side.

User scenarios

It can be run at various IoT edge use scenarios, such as real-time processing of production line data in the IIoT; Gateway of Connected Vehicle analyze the data from data-bus in real time; Real-time analysis of urban facility data in smart city scenarios. Kuiper processing at the edge can reduce system response latency, save network bandwidth and storage costs, and improve system security.

Performance test result

MQTT throughput test

  • Using JMeter MQTT plugin to send simulation data to EMQ X Broker, such as: {"temperature": 10, "humidity" : 90}, the value of temperature and humidity are random integer between 0 - 100.
  • Kuiper subscribe from EMQ X Broker, and analyze data with SQL: SELECT * FROM demo WHERE temperature > 50
  • The analysis result are wrote to local file by using file sink plugin.
Devices Message # per second CPU usage Memory usage
Raspberry Pi 3B+ 12k sys+user: 70% 20M
AWS t2.micro( 1 Core * 1 GB)
Ubuntu18.04
10k sys+user: 25% 20M

EdgeX throughput test

  • A Go application is wrote to send data to ZeroMQ message bus, the data is as following.

    {
      "Device": "demo", "Created": 000, …
      "readings": 
      [
         {"Name": "Temperature", value: "30", "Created":123 …},
         {"Name": "Humidity", value: "20", "Created":456 …}
      ]
    }
    
  • Kuiper subscribe from EdgeX ZeroMQ message bus, and analyze data with SQL: SELECT * FROM demo WHERE temperature > 50. 90% of data will be filtered by the rule.

  • The analysis result are sent to nop sink, all of the result data will be ignored.

Max number of rules support

  • 8000 rules with 800 message/second
  • Configurations
    • 2 core * 4GB memory in AWS
    • Ubuntu
  • Resource usage
    • Memory: 89% ~ 72%
    • CPU: 25%
    • 400KB - 500KB / rule
  • Rule
    • Source: MQTT
    • SQL: SELECT temperature FROM source WHERE temperature > 20 (90% data are filtered)
    • Sink: Log
