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.

Chapter 1: Introduction to Industrial IoT

  1. The Walmart mandate failed mainly due to the lack of maturity of the technologies.
  2. The main enabling factors for the IoT are as follows:
    • New, mature sensors with more capabilities and a high performance at a low cost.
    • New networks and wireless connectivity (such as PAN and LAN) interconnecting the sensors and devices to optimize the bandwidth, power consumption, latency, and range.
    • New, powerful, and cheap processors and microprocessors coming from the mobile devices world.
    • Real-time operating systems, leading to a more sophisticated and powerful integrated development platform at the maker's disposal.
    • Virtualization technology, which divides naturally into the data center, big data, and the cloud.
    • The diffusion of mobile devices.
  3. Big data, the cloud, and data analytics.
  4. An object connected to the cloud, which gives it further...
