Hello,
i was working on my pimatic project and had some idea.
Is it possible to run pimatic on several devices connected together? For example you have one VPN network with one pimatic master server in your cellar and some pimatic “clients” connected via UMTS to the VPN and to the server.
I thought of one pimatic web-frontend running on the server and “knowing” all the devices ( switch sensors etc. ) connected to the other pimatic clients.
The clients could be addressed over one specific interface via IP and just return the value of the switch or the sensors and se server could write this in one large database.
This would reduce the traffic via UMTS and you have one controlling modul for all your devices.
I found some great points here but i had not the time to look deeper in it.

Some ideas? Comments on it?
German or English is possible
I will publish my project soon so you can have a look!
Thanks and greetings from Germany
