Overview of this book

There is a lot of work that is being done in the IoT domain and according to Forbes the global IoT market will grow from $157B in 2016 to $457B by 2020. This is an amazing market both in terms technology advancement as well as money. In this book, we will be covering five popular IoT platforms, namely, AWS IoT, Microsoft Azure IoT, Google IoT Core, IBM Watson IoT, and Kaa IoT middleware. You are going to build solutions that will use a Raspberry Pi 3, a DHT11 Temperature and humidity sensor, and a dashboard to visualize the sensor data in real-time. Furthermore, you will also explore various components of each of the platforms that are needed to achieve the desired solution. Besides building solutions, you will look at how Machine Learning and IoT go hand in hand and later design a simple predictive web service based on this concept. By the end of this book, you will be in a position to implement an IoT strategy best-fit for your organization

Summary

In this chapter, we have seen how to work with the Kaa IoT middleware. We started off by downloading and setting up the Kaa Sandbox image on our local machine. Then we created a new application and configured the required schema.

Then, we created two log appenders to send data to MongoDB as well as to a REST endpoint, that we built using Node.js.

For the visualizations, we used the demo setup provided by ThingsBoard and we have configured another REST log appender to send data to the ThingsBoard platform. Finally, we built the dashboard using the telemetry data that we received on ThingsBoard.

This chapter wraps up our walkthrough of five IoT platforms at a basic level.

In the next chapter, we are going to work on data analytics using Azure IoT Cloud and Azure Machine Learning Studio.
