IoT and Big Data

Picture this: the Internet of Things (IoT) and Big Data are like workmates, with Big Data acting as the senior one.  As the junior, the IoT is tasked with roaming the office, gathering all the information it can from every corner. It collects data from the machines, devices, and the environment, providing a wealth of…

IoT and Edge Computing

Picture IoT and edge computing as two friends: one, the IoT devices tirelessly collecting data, and the other, edge computing, the sharp-minded processor analyzing information on the spot. Together, they form a dynamic duo reshaping industries. But before we dive into how these two works together, let’s take a look at a simple explanation about…

IoT and Cloud Computing

Cloud computing plays a pivotal role in enhancing the success of the Internet of Things (IoT). Even though cloud is differ from the IoT, but when this two technologies combined, users can easily perform computing tasks through online services. The internet of things and cloud computing are good examples of modern technology, which have a…

IoT Analytics Implementation

Smart watch, smart thermostat and smart lighting are the most common example of Internet of Things (IoT) analytics implementation in our daily life. Those devices will gather some data from one or more multiple sensor and from those data, they can provide you with some solution to make your life easier.  Approximately 25.5 billion IoT…

Microcontroller for IoT

There are a lot of microcontrollers for IoT you could use in making your own project. Imagine the microcontroller as a busy metropolis with a wide variety of architectural marvels. There are specialized buildings in this thriving metropolis, and each one is home to a multitude of distinct residents. Microcontrollers are similar to these marvels…

Multi Tenancy in IoT Platform

Multi-tenancy is like living in an apartment building where multiple tenants or residents share the same building, but each has their own separate space, like their own unit. In the context of software or technology, multi-tenancy means that a single system or platform can be used by multiple users or groups, and each user or…

Exploring LoRa and LoRaWAN in IoT

LoRa and LoRaWAN are two closely intertwined terms that play pivotal roles in shaping the landscape of the Internet of Things (IoT). LoRa and LoRaWAN often appear together, contributing collectively to the evolution of IoT technology. While they are frequently discussed together, it’s important to recognize that LoRa and LoRaWAN hold separate and specific meanings.…

What is MQTT and How It Works

Before diving deeper into understanding what the usage MQTT in IoT is, let’s look at the history of MQTT itself. In 1999, Andy Stanford-Clark of IBM, and Arlen Nipper (then of Arcom Systems, later CTO of Eurotech), created MQTT. In its initial version, MQTT helped oil pipeline sensors communicate with satellites. In 2014 OASIS accepted…
