Basics

This article introduces the three core concepts of the Weincloud platform—Domain, Dashboard, and EasyAccess 2.0—to help you understand the platform's overall architecture and the purpose of each service.

Domain

Domain is the core concept of Weincloud, representing an independent management space where users can create, manage, and monitor their HMI devices and data. All other services (Dashboard and EasyAccess 2.0) operate under a Domain.

The Domain interface includes:

• Directory - A resource management system that goes beyond a simple folder structure, serving as a platform to manage various types of resources and their permissions.
• Device / User / Audit / Setting - Management-related features.
• Dashboard - Configures data from connected HMIs, and edits and publishes dashboard files.
• EasyAccess 2.0 - Configuration for remote monitoring.

The Domain uses a directory-based structure as its management framework, and the users and HMIs within it can be moved into specific directories. For clarity, the terms Subdomain and folder used later in this document refer to the same concept. These directories are maintained by administrators with different permission levels.

The primary administrator of a Domain is the admin; each Domain has only one admin. By adding users, other users can be included in the Domain, and a single Domain can contain multiple users. Users are granted different management capabilities according to their permission settings, as compared below:

• Domain Admin - Has the highest level of authority and can use all features.
• Domain Superuser - Second only to the admin, with permissions identical to the admin except for the inability to manage the admin.
• Subdomain Superuser - Can manage permissions for users and HMIs within specific directories.
• User - Can only access HMIs and related features for which permission has been granted.

Security Tip

To protect your Domain account and platform security, please refer to the Weincloud Security Best Practices.

Dashboard

The Dashboard service provides a visual interface for monitoring and displaying the data and performance indicators of HMI devices.

EasyAccess 2.0

EasyAccess 2.0 is a remote access service that allows you to connect to and control your HMI devices from anywhere via the internet.
