Hands-On Industrial Internet of Things

By: Giacomo Veneri, Antonio Capasso

Overview of this book

We live in an era where advanced automation is used to achieve accurate results. To set up an automation environment, you need to first configure a network that can be accessed anywhere and by any device. This book is a practical guide that helps you discover the technologies and use cases for Industrial Internet of Things (IIOT). Hands-On Industrial Internet of Things takes you through the implementation of industrial processes and specialized control devices and protocols. You’ll study the process of identifying and connecting to different industrial data sources gathered from different sensors. Furthermore, you’ll be able to connect these sensors to cloud network, such as AWS IoT, Azure IoT, Google IoT, and OEM IoT platforms, and extract data from the cloud to your devices. As you progress through the chapters, you’ll gain hands-on experience in using open source Node-Red, Kafka, Cassandra, and Python. You will also learn how to develop streaming and batch-based Machine Learning algorithms. By the end of this book, you will have mastered the features of Industry 4.0 and be able to build stronger, faster, and more reliable IoT infrastructure in your Industry.

AWS analytics

Once the devices are connected and the time-series data is stored, I-IoT data should be analyzed, processed, and visualized. AWS provides six different mechanisms to process data:

  • Serverless Lambda functions
  • Greengrass, which can be used to deploy Lambda functions on-premises
  • IoT Analytics
  • Machine learning analytics
  • Athena
  • SageMaker

Lambda analytics

Serverless Lambda functions are the easiest and most customizable form of analytics. Lambda analytics allow you to process data immediately, with powerful support for Python, Node.js, GO, C#, and Java. The easiest way to configure a Lambda function is through the AWS console as follows:

  1. From the AWS console, we have to search for Lambda and click on the Create...
