OpenWeave

Build Status Coverage Status


What is OpenWeave?

Weave is the network application layer that provides a secure, reliable communications backbone for Nest's products. OpenWeave is the open source release of Weave.

This initial release makes available some of Weave’s core components. With OpenWeave core, you can preview the technology by inspecting the code, learning about the architecture, and understanding the security model.

At Nest, we believe the core technologies that underpin connected home products need to be open and accessible. Alignment around common fundamentals will help products securely and seamlessly communicate with one another. Nest's first open source release was our implementation of Thread, OpenThread. OpenWeave can run on OpenThread, and is another step in the direction of making our core technologies more widely available.

OpenWeave Features

  • Low Overhead
    Whereas many approaches to the Internet of Things attempt to start from server-based or -grown technologies, struggling to scale down, Weave starts with the perspective that if you can tackle the toughest Internet of Things problems on the constrained product front, you can successfully scale up from there to any product.

  • Pervasive architecture
    By building an application architecture on top of IP and starting with a low overhead architecture, we have achieved a holistic, common, and consistent architecture from low-power, sleepy Thread end nodes to cloud services and mobile devices with end-to-end addressability, reachability, and security, making it easier on your developers and helping instill customer confidence in Weave-enabled products.

  • Robust
    Weave leverages and takes advantages of underlying network attributes, such as Thread’s no single point-of-failure and mesh resiliency. In addition, Weave devices are auto-configuring and enjoy the ability to route among and across different network link technologies.

  • Secure
    Weave employs security as a fundamental and core design tenet with:

    • Defense in depth with end-to-end application security, independent of underlying network
    • Tiered trust domains with application-specific groupwise keys
  • Easy to Use
    Out-of-box experience is key to avoiding a connected product return and an impact on your product’s profitability. Weave’s focus on a smooth, cohesive, integrated provisioning and out-of-box experience ensures returns are minimized. In addition to offering simple setup and administration for the end user, Weave also offers a straightforward but capable platform for the application developer.

  • Versatile
    OpenWeave has been designed to scale to home area networks containing low to mid-100s of devices. The communication support for variety of interaction models / patterns such as device-to-device, device-to-service, device-to-mobile/PC (remote and local).
