OperatorFabric is a modular, extensible, industrial-strength platform for use in electricity, water, and other utility operations.

It aims to facilitate operational activities for utilities in two ways :

• Centralize real time business events in a single place to avoid having multiple screens/software. To do so, OperatorFabric provides

  • event notifications named "cards" with filtering features (severity , date , process …​ )

  • event dispatching rules on a per user basis (based on groups, organizational entities, processes…​ )

  • event-sending endpoints for business applications

  • a mechanism of templating to customize events rendering (using HTML5 )

  • a view of the events on a timeline and agenda view

  • storage of all the events (archive feature)

  • notifications via sounds

  • possibilities to integrate screen form other applications

• Facilitate interactions between operational control centers:

  • Share information in real time, as pre-formatted cards that can be sent either manually by operators or automatically by external solutions.

  • Introduce pre-formatted question/response exchanges between control centers. This can be used to implement operational processes (with the notion of "last time to respond").

  • Share events in calendar (also allowing repeating events)

In addition, the following features are available : internationalization, time-zone management, light/dark mode for the UI, authorization mechanism.

Integration with existing IT systems is an overarching concern: support of Firefox and Chromium-based browsers, docker deployment, communication with business applications via REST API or Kafka, integration with external authentication systems (via OAuth2), monitoring via Prometheus endpoints.

OperatorFabric is part of the LF Energy coalition, a project of The Linux Foundation that supports open source innovation projects within the energy and electricity sectors.

If you want to try OperatorFabric (see what the UI looks like with some test cards) in a few minutes, follow the steps below.

1. Clone this repository

   git clone https://github.com/opfab/operatorfabric-core.git
   cd operatorfabric-core

2. Launch our demo docker-compose file

   cd ./config/docker
   ./docker-compose.sh

3. After a little while, log into the application UI at localhost:2002/ using operator1/test as credentials.

4. Push basic configuration and cards using the following test scripts

   ./src/test/resources/loadTestConf.sh
   ./src/test/resources/send6TestCards.sh
