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.

Understanding the advanced analytics capabilities of GCP

GCP is very focused on the machine learning algorithm and provides a huge variety of technologies to build an analytical model. These include BigQuery, Dataflow, Data Studio, Prebuilt-Model, and Engine ML. GCP has also developed its own Tensor Processing Unit (TPU) processor to speed up the adoption of ML both on the cloud and on the edge (https://cloud.google.com/edge-tpu/). GCP supports ML through the Google Cloud ML service (https://cloud.google.com/ml-engine/).

ML Engine

The process to develop a model using the ML Engine is quite similar to that we have seen in the Working with the Azure ML service and Implementing analytics on AWS SageMaker sections:
