**Areas** 

# Software, area by area.

Each area of the platform has its own page: the systems in it, the standards it is drawn against, the industries it serves and how we deliver it.

**02** Open and enterprise

## Open by default. Enterprise by contract.

The open layer lives on the main site, free to use and build on. Enterprise services are delivered under contract by Nexus Observatory Inc.

Open, on the main site

- Node agent and SDKs (licence pending)
- App methods with worked examples

Enterprise, on this site

- Fleet operations
- Supported runtime
- Team workspaces
- Integration engineering
