UNS OpenHub
Documentation
Start with a local installation, then choose a task: connect a source, compare its history, follow an Asset, expose a Catalog offer or record an event. Check component prerequisites in the workflow guides and use the bundled Runtime README for version-specific operating commands.
Start
Get started
Install the Runtime and prepare the first controller.
- Install UNS OpenHub RuntimeRequirements, platform commands, and the version-matched guide.
- Complete first-time setupInfrastructure checks, signing keys, the first administrator, and the initial solution profile.
- Run the demo and explore measurementsVideo: deploy the Archiver, API, and hot-rolling simulator, then inspect furnace temperatures.
- Update Runtime or ControllerChoose a full Runtime upgrade or a compatible Controller-only update, and plan for recovery.
User workflows
Use operational data
Connected tasks you can perform with compatible released components.
- See the implemented workflowsA concise map of capabilities, prerequisites and practical limits.
- Compare signals and exportSeveral series, states, time windows, SQL, saved views and Excel.
- Turn a recorded session into a shared dashboardSave a recorded analysis, review visibility and verify the reader experience.
- Follow an Asset through a moveStable history, saved views, dashboards and identity-aware Catalog offers.
- Follow material through productionFurnace loading, visits, lineage and repeatable comparisons.
- Try a Catalog data productJSON preview, CSV and Parquet from the public furnace example.
- Detect events and record valuesTriggers, Captures, runtime confirmation and session analysis.

Explanation
Understand the model
Learn how namespace placement, stable identity, Schema, and history fit together.
- What is a Unified Namespace (UNS)?MQTT, shared context, stable identity, history, and relationships.
- How Schema worksProfiles and reviewed profile changes, tenant customizations, service contracts, and MQTT observations in one governed vocabulary.
- Technical articlesWorked examples from manufacturing and cultural heritage, plus guidance on when a UNS is useful.
How-to guides
Administer the Runtime
Use the same public task guides linked from the Controller's Help actions.
- Browse all administrator guidesGetting-started and Schema guidance in one directory.
- Backups and recoveryUse the Recovery workspace, protect data and keys off-host, and test restoration with the Runtime tools.
- Create an object typeDefine a reusable template for a class of objects.
- Create a relationship ruleDescribe how object types may connect.
- Create an attribute typeDefine reusable value shape and presentation.
- Create a measurement unitAdd unit metadata for compatible attributes.
- Review semantic changes and adopt a demo contractImpact, bounded migrations, manual trusted handoff and explicit adoption or recovery.
