The world’s largest open source community for edge and IoT continues to drive innovation that benefits a broad range of industries and applications
The Eclipse Foundation, one of the world’s largest open source software foundations, celebrated the 10th Anniversary of the Eclipse IoT Working Group. Eclipse IoT is the largest open source IoT community in the world with 47 working group members, 47 projects, 360 contributors, and more than 32 million lines of code.
“It would be challenging to measure the industry impact of the Eclipse IoT Working Group over the past 10 years,” said Mike Milinkovich, executive director of the Eclipse Foundation. “From day one, this working group had a vision focused on developing actionable code as opposed to blueprints or standards, which has enabled it to stand apart from other organizations. This focus, along with the broad and diverse mix of Eclipse IoT ecosystem participants, has led to an extremely vibrant community that has helped drive commercial innovation and adoption at scale.”

In addition to original founding members, IBM and Eurotech, the current Eclipse’s IoT ecosystem now includes globally recognized players such as Bosch.IO, Red Hat, Huawei, Intel, SAP, and Siemens. The community is further enriched with Industrial IoT (IIoT) specialists like Aloxy, Cedalo, itemis, and Kynetics; along with edge IoT innovators that include ADLINK Technology and Edgeworx.
Eclipse’s IoT is home to open source innovation that has delivered some of the industry’s most popular IoT protocols. CoAP (Eclipse Californium), DDS (Eclipse Cyclone DDS), LwM2M (Eclipse Leshan), MQTT (Eclipse Paho, Eclipse Mosquitto and Eclipse Amlen) and OPC UA (Eclipse Milo) are all built around Eclipse IoT projects. Other popular Eclipse IoT production-ready platforms cover use cases such as digital twins (Eclipse Ditto), energy management (Eclipse VOLTTRON), contactless payments (Eclipse Keyple), Smart cities (Eclipse Kura) in addition to Eclipse Kapua — a modular IoT cloud platform that manages data, devices, and much more.
