## What it is
OpenRemote is a 100% open-source (AGPLv3) IoT platform for device management, automation, and data visualization, built on a Java backend with a web-based Manager UI. It supports protocol agents (MQTT, HTTP/REST, WebSocket, Modbus), multi-tenancy, rules engines (When-Then, Flow, Groovy), edge gateways, and an Insights dashboard builder, deployable via Docker.

## Use cases
- manage and provision IoT devices from a single platform
- build a smart city or building management dashboard
- monitor and automate energy management systems
- track fleet telematics and vehicle assets
- integrate devices over MQTT, Modbus, or HTTP into one manager
- create custom IoT apps with rules and flow automation
- self-host an open-source alternative to commercial IoT platforms

## When to choose
- you need a full-stack, self-hosted IoT platform with device management, automation, and dashboards
- you want 100% open-source code with no vendor lock-in and multi-tenancy support
- you manage diverse assets like EV chargers, buildings, fleets, or city infrastructure
- you need protocol agents (MQTT, Modbus, HTTP) plus a rules engine out of the box

## When to avoid
- you only need a lightweight MQTT broker or simple device dashboard without a full platform
- your project requires a permissive license (AGPLv3 restricts redistribution as a service)
- you need a managed cloud IoT service rather than self-hosted infrastructure
- your stack is not Java/Docker friendly
