Obix (Open Building Information Exchange) is a standard for web services-based interfaces to building control systems. It facilitates interoperability by enabling different systems and devices in a building to communicate with each other, allowing for integrated control and monitoring of building automation, security, and energy management systems.
About Obix
Obix was developed as a standard to address the need for interoperability in building automation systems. It emerged in the early 2000s, driven by the efforts of industry groups and stakeholders who recognized the importance of enabling different systems and devices to communicate seamlessly. The goal was to create a unified framework for integrated control and monitoring, enhancing efficiency and functionality in building management.
Strengths of Obix include its ability to facilitate interoperability between diverse building systems and its web services-based approach, which supports modern IT infrastructure. Weaknesses involve potential complexity in implementation and the need for widespread industry adoption. Competitors include BACnet, KNX, and LonWorks, which also aim to standardize communication in building automation systems.
