Node Types

Agent, Remote, Hub, and Zoo

Node types

OctoMY™ has four node types, each serving a distinct role in the distributed system.

Did You Know?

Each node type has a distinctive theme color: Agent is red (robot/action), Remote is blue (control), Hub is green (coordination), and Zoo is orange (services). These colors appear throughout the UI to help users quickly identify what they're working with.
