Reef is an open source smart grid platform factored to a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA). It is the substrate for the TotalGrid open source community and sponsored by Green Energy Corp.

About

• 100% open source. See the list of dependencies to see the projects from which Reef derived.

• We're committed to putting a viable automation platform into open source.

• Cross-language. The core server platform runs on the Java virtual machine, however, communication adapters can be written in any language that has an AMQP implementation and a protobuf compiler. Ruby and .NET implementations will join the community soon.

• Cross-platform. The server platform and its dependencies have been successfully run on both Linux and Windows.

• Uses an extensible component architecture based on OSGi.

• Combines messaging and persistence to federate, cluster, and scale.

License

Reef is split across two licenses. Refer to each library for license information.

The APIs, schemas, and utility libraries are provided under the terms of the commercially friendly Apache 2.0 license. The intent is for these libraries to create a license bridge between third party proprietary software and the core server platform licensed under AGPLv3. Refer to the license of each submodule if in doubt.
