The EmberNet platform
Your software. Any payload. One platform.
EmberNet runs any containerized workload or virtual machine on hardened, immutable edge infrastructure. If it runs in a container or a VM, it runs on EmberNet: secured, monitored, and maintained from EmberCORE.
The core claim
EmberNet is not a software product. It is a platform for software.
Most industrial software vendors ask you to buy their stack and live inside it. EmberNet inverts that model: it provides the infrastructure, and you bring whatever workloads your operation needs.
That means EmberOps is one app that runs on EmberNet. Ignition is one app. Node-RED is one app. Your custom Python service is one app. They all run together on the same platform, managed the same way and secured the same way.

Containers and VMs
Containerized workloads. Virtual machines. Side by side.
EmberNet supports both containerized payloads and full virtual machines. Containers give you lightweight, fast-starting workloads for services, agents, and data pipelines. VMs give you full OS isolation for legacy industrial software that expects to own its runtime environment.

EmberRTOS base: real-time and virtualization payloads
- Run containerized services alongside full VM payloads on the same node
- Consistent lifecycle management for both: deploy, update, and roll back from EmberCORE
- Workloads are isolated from the host OS, so a crashed payload does not crash the node
- Real-time and virtualization payloads on the same EmberRTOS base
What runs on EmberNet
From your existing OT stack to greenfield deployments.
EmberNet is designed to work with the software you already have, not replace it. Ignition Perspective screens, Node-RED flows, CODESYS runtimes, historian databases, and MQTT brokers all run on EmberNet as first-class payloads.
For greenfield deployments, EmberOps, Fireball Industries' own ERP, MES, and WMS stack, is available as a payload through the EmberNet App Store. It's one option among many, not the product you're required to buy.
Node-RED
Visual data pipeline orchestration across OT and IT.
CODESYS
PLC runtime and soft-PLC workloads.
EmberOps
ERP, MES, WMS, and EHS built for manufacturing.
Your workloads
Any containerized or VM payload you bring.
Platform partners
Build your product on EmberNet.
If you build industrial software, EmberNet gives you a deployment target that handles the hard parts, so you can focus on your application.
Platform Partners deploy their products as payloads on EmberNet and reach customers through the EmberNet App Store. Your licensing terms and your support, running on infrastructure that's already secured and managed.
- OS security
- Network isolation
- Remote maintenance access
- Lifecycle management
