Abstract

The present disclosure involves systems, software, and computer implemented methods for translating messages between a sensor-specific protocol and a unified protocol associated with a backend application server. One example method includes: receiving, at a load balancer, a first message from a first sensor to a backend application server, the first message in a first sensor-specific protocol; identifying, by the load balancer, the first sensor-specific protocol of the first message; translating, by the load balancer, the first message from the first sensor-specific protocol to a second message in the unified protocol associated with the backend application server; and transmitting, by the load balancer, the second message in the unified protocol to the backend application server for processing.
