Unified Namespace

The Unified Namespace (UNS) is the core messaging backbone of UMH Core, providing a standardized, event-driven architecture that eliminates point-to-point integration complexity.

Key Concepts

Traditional manufacturing systems create "spaghetti diagrams" with point-to-point connections between every system. The UNS flips this model:

  • Event-driven: Devices publish data as events happen

  • Standard hierarchy: Flexible location paths (supports ISA-95, KKS, or custom naming)

  • Schema enforcement: Data contracts ensure consistent payload formats

  • Publish-regardless: Producers don't need to know about consumers
