Driving Edge Automation with Events
summary
Demonstrates event-driven automation using Ansible to detect anomalies and change device config in real time: a containerized proof-of-concept wires sensors → Mosquitto MQTT broker → an mqtt connector that feeds an Ansible rulebook which runs playbooks to adjust a simulated fridge’s operating temperature; actuator/aggregator logic flags threshold breaches and the automation successfully changes config. Claims agentless operation, extensible Python connectors, and scalability to tens of thousands of edge nodes.
