Message management via a universal interface apparatus

Abstract

Techniques are described with respect to managing a distributed device message in a computing infrastructure. Such techniques are enabled through a universal interface apparatus including a plurality of serial interface adapter boards and a system-on-a-chip microcontroller. The universal interface apparatus provides a universal gateway solution between one or more component interfaces associated with a certain premises or environment and a remote system. An associated method includes deriving core message content from a distributed device message originating from a source component in a computing infrastructure, converting the derived core message content to open standard file format message content, propagating the open standard file format message content to a virtualized management system, and receiving an open standard file format message response from the virtualized management system.
