Datonis Edge 5.8 Release Notes
Inter Edge Communication - Now Edge can transmit scan, alerts and other Datonis entities (that eventually streamed to/fetched from Datonis) to another Edge over MQTT as well as HTTP. Edge virtually implements all data ingestion, instruction subscription and Thing data APIs to establish a bidirectional tunnel between another Edge. With this feature, Edge can act as a client as well as receiver and forwarder. The inter Edge communication happens over Secure MQTT and Secure HTTP channels that uses Edge's self signed certificate (certificate is configurable). The client Edge buffers and re-transmits data in case receiver Edge or its communication link is down. The downstream APIs like Sync Things, Sync Rules have also been tunneled to enhance the client Edge configuration experience. The MQTT acknowledgment mechanism is similar to Datonis where first class Ack message is published.
