Open Source IoT Databases Software
IoT Databases store and organize the high volume of telemetry, sensor readings, and event logs generated by connected hardware. These tools handle the specific challenges of time series data and real-time streams from IP cameras or industrial assets. This type of software serves developers and home automation enthusiasts who need to manage device communication and data logging locally. Self-hosting these apps ensures that sensitive surveillance footage and energy usage metrics remain on private hardware instead of on external servers.
This page lists 6 open source tools in the IoT Databases category. The most popular are Frigate, ThingsBoard and evcc. Most use the MIT or GPL-2.0 license, and 5 offer an official Docker image.
