Feature Idea - Multisite Deployments
Motivation
- Holmes hall is not the only site we'll want to deploy weatherboxes - we may want to deploy to other locations that are not accessible by a zigbee network alone.
- We may want to have other testing deployments that are put in a more accessible place to make it easier to debug iterate on hardware/software designs. Right now roof access is extremely restrictive, making getting sort of feedback on designs difficult.
Tasks
- Think about the architecture a bit more - where do remote gateways report their data to and how is that controlled?
- Proposal - instead of writing to a local postgres instance, the gateway should be able to some sort of other service somewhere
- Question - how do we handle authentication and trust?
