Are you attending RHTE (Red Hat Tech Exchange) APAC, interested in IoT and like to tinker with real hardware? Come join us for an evening of fun at CodeStarter IoT hackathon on Thursday, Sep 7th. The use case for this CodeStarter emulates Industry 4.0 smart factory scenario. This end-to-end IoT solution will allow the participants to interact with: Raspberry Pi connected to sensors/actuators to emulate the factory environment. Java/OSGi based middleware ( Eclipse Kura) for simplified access to underlying device...
As technology continues to disrupt the industries beyond the first wave (led by Netflix, Amazon, Uber etc.), the enterprises are embracing digital transformation to meet the challenge. One of the key technologies enabling digital transformation is Containers through its inherent advantages with packaging (Atomic, built for CI/CD), collaboration and runtime (lightweight, distributable, portable). At the Red Hat Summit in Boston, Andrew Block and I conducted a hands-on lab on how to build a containerized intelligent Internet-of-Things (IoT) gateway on Red...
How do customers build an end-to-end IoT solution using commercial grade, open source products? This is the question we (Patrick Steiner, Maggie Hu and I) wanted to address with our session at the Red Hat Summit, Boston. The end-to-end solution is based on three-tier Enterprise IoT Architecture , which integrates IoT data with existing business processes and the human element. To keep it real, we not only prescribed the recipe but also demonstrated this end-to-end solution through an interactive demo...
At the Red Hat Summit in Boston earlier this month, one IoT event stood out from the rest - a CodeStarter hackathon that brought together 80+ IoT enthusiasts to learn, tinker, and build an end-to-end IoT solution. The result was a complete IoT application that seamlessly integrates across IT and OT (Operations Technologies). Smart Factory The CodeStarter was based on the Industry 4.0 use case of a smart factory: the physical systems are abstracted in a digital form and interoperate...
The Eclipse IoT community announced the winners of the third Open IoT Challenge , a developer challenge to promote the use of open source and open standards in Internet of Things (IoT) solutions. The panel of judges for this competition were from Bosch, Eurotech, Red Hat, and others. The competitors used several Eclipse Foundation IoT projects, showing their appeal to IoT developers. The winners of the this year’s challenge are: InMoodforLife An application to analyze and monitor sleep patterns of...
For businesses looking to build scalable Internet of Things (IoT) solutions using containers, here is a sample project built on the Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform . This project implements an intelligent IoT gateway on the OpenShift Container platform. The IoT Gateway is critical for enterprise IoT as it brings intelligence, and enables key services, at the edge. In this project, the gateway application is deployed as a set of microservices inside containers on OpenShift. A software sensor sends a...
In previous blogs, I talked about the the critical role of the IoT gateway in the enterprise Internet of Things (IoT) as it enables real time decision-making at the edge, secures downstream devices and optimizes network utilization. So how does one go about building this gateway? In this blog, you’ll learn how to build an intelligent IoT gateway in a few simple steps - you can find the code at GitHub. To automate the gateway provisioning, we’ll using Ansible by...
Intel Developer Forum 2016 (IDF) produced quite a few announcements this year, including the Joule, a powerful IoT dev kit. Although targeted at makers, Intel and partners spoke about how this Joule can be used for industrial IoT use cases --- cases like augmented reality safety glasses for manufacturing environments from PivotHead. This spawned an interesting debate in geek circles --- Is Intel Joule just a maker's tool, or does it have a place in the hands of the IoT...
