Case Study: Home Systems Consulting achieves scalable, energy-efficient, cross-platform building automation with Oracle Java SE Embedded

Home Systems Consulting Brings the Internet of Things to Users’ Fingertips with Highly Scalable and Portable, Web-Based, Home-and-Building Automation Tool

Home Systems Consulting S.p.A., a Milan-based developer of the HSYCO Java framework for home- and building-automation, needed to overcome fragmented, hard-to-integrate systems and meet rising IoT and M2M demands. The company required a cross-platform, highly customizable, secure and scalable solution that professionals could use to control heating, lighting, alarms and other subsystems from any device, while running efficiently on low-cost, commodity hardware.

By building HSYCO on Oracle Java SE Embedded and modern web standards (HTML5/CSS3/JavaScript/Java), Home Systems delivered an installation-free, high-performance platform that leverages Java 8’s embedded JavaScript engine for seamless JavaScript-to-Java integration. The result is a developer-friendly toolset that supports devices from 60+ vendors, runs on low-power hardware like Raspberry Pi and Intel Atom, provides OEM customization, maintains enterprise-grade security and always-on reliability, and keeps costs competitive through low-overhead licensing.
