Cobradash is the cloud platform that collects, visualises and exports the data from your Cobra Climate sensors. It is a purpose-built management tool for indoor climate, designed to be deployed quickly with very little IT involvement.
What you can do with it
- Read sensor data from multiple sensors, across multiple locations and countries.
- View data real-time or as a graph.
- Export data as PDF or CSV.
- Compare trends and changes in baselines for large numbers of devices with very little effort.
Hosting
- Cloud-based, hosted in Europe (Amsterdam).
- The SMQTT broker and the application run on separate servers.
- Access is secured over SSL.
- The database is MySQL. No personal data is stored.
- On special request the software can be installed on-premise, though this somewhat limits flexibility and application management.
How it is built
- Sensors connect to the message server over SMQTT (port 8883/TCP). An organisation — or even an individual device — can use separate credentials to connect.
- The message server communicates with the backend through an API. The backend is built with Laravel.
- End users access the frontend over port 443 (SSL). The frontend runs on Nuxt behind an Nginx server, deployed via Laravel Forge.
