Detect Non-Communication or Connectivity Loss of Devices

Oracle IoT Fleet Monitoring Cloud Service can detect if a vehicle, a trip, or any of the trip's entities loses connectivity with the application and then can notify the administrator or the logistics operator.

A system metric inactiveDuration is computed for the devices associated with an entity of a trip and is displayed in the info view of the entity.

As an administrator, you can configure a rule for the entities and use the inactiveDuration metric to determine non-communication of messages or connectivity loss for more than a configurable time period. The rule when triggered notifies the administrator about the entity, type of loss, and its geo-location. See how to Create a Rule.

As an administrator, you can add the inactiveDuration metric for a trip's entity or any vehicle on a dashboard. See Add or Remove Metrics on Custom Dashboards.

Additionally, you can use the inactiveDuration metric to create new aggregation metrics such as:
  • Duration of average connectivity loss
  • Min and max duration of connectivity loss
  • If inactiveDuration is greater than n then metric set to true
