About ForgeRock IoT

ForgeRock IoT includes two components:

IoT SDK

The IoT SDK lets a Thing (either a physical device or a software service) register and authenticate without human interaction. When the thing is registered, it is represented by a digital identity in the ForgeRock Identity Platform, It can then authenticate itself to interact with the platform tier.

The IoT SDK can communicate directly with the platform, using HTTP(S), or through the IoT Gateway, using the Constrained Application Protocol (CoAP(S)).

IoT Gateway

The IoT Gateway is an application that lets constrained devices interact with the ForgeRock Identity Platform, by acting as a proxy between a thing and the Platform. A constrained device is usually a small device with limited CPU, memory, and power resources (such as sensors, smart objects, and smart devices).
