Use Your IoT and Edge Knowledge for Good!

Wednesday, February 3, 2021 - 16:17 by Frédéric Desbiens
There is nothing worse than working in the dark. Even a task seemingly as simple as plugging a cable can be an exercise in frustration without the proper lighting. The same applies if you are working to deliver IoT and Edge Computing solutions. Without knowledge of market trends, you are working in the dark. Do I target the right market? Do I deliver features that developers and operators want? If all you have is your own knowledge, answering those questions can be difficult. Fortunately, we are here to help!

2021 Open Source Crystal Ball: What I See For IoT and Edge Computing

Monday, December 21, 2020 - 15:43 by Frédéric Desbiens

As Edge Computing architectures and the Internet of Things (IoT) continue to grow throughout multiple vertical markets, one trend that enterprises have made abundantly clear is that, in 2021, they expect their edge computing solutions and IoT technologies to be based on or leverage open source. This was confirmed in the most recent Eclipse IoT Commercial Adoption survey published in March 2020, which found that 60% of the organizations surveyed are factoring open source into their deployment plans.

Eclipse IDE for Embedded Developers Now Runs on the Raspberry Pi!

Tuesday, October 6, 2020 - 16:42 by Frédéric Desbiens

The Eclipse IDE is the project that started it all for the Eclipse Foundation. From the beginning, Eclipse IDE was meant to run on multiple platforms; it now supports Linux, Mac OS and Microsoft Windows. Since it is written in Java, it also supports multiple processor architectures. However, support for 32-bit architectures has been dropped in version 2018-12. This meant recent versions of the IDE would not run on the Raspberry Pi anymore.

The Industrial Open Source Network: Because Open Source Is Integral to IoT

Friday, July 24, 2020 - 11:27 by Frédéric Desbiens
Year after year, surveys conducted by the Eclipse Foundation have showed that most IoT developers leverage open source technologies. In the 2019 Commercial IoT Adoption Survey, for example, 60% of respondents stated that their organization is factoring open source into its IoT deployment plans. This clearly means the dominant IoT platforms in the market will either be open source or based on an open source core.

A Virtual Event With a Focus on the Real World

Thursday, May 14, 2020 - 17:47 by Frédéric Desbiens
April 9, 2020 was supposed to be a big day for the Eclipse IoT, Eclipse Edge Native and Eclipse Sparkplug communities. We were planning to gather in a room of the San Jose Convention Center to have a full day of presentations and networking. Unfortunately, that event got cancelled due to the Coronarivus pandemic.

The Eclipse IoT MQTT Sandbox Is On the Move!

Friday, July 5, 2019 - 09:36 by Frédéric Desbiens
For many years, the Eclipse Foundation has offered an MQTT sandbox to the IoT developer community. That sandbox was maintained by Foundation staff and was running on Foundation infrastructure. The goal was to encourage and facilitate the evaluation of Eclipse Paho and Eclipse Mosquitto, and to foster interoperability among MQTT implementations. Today, I have the pleasure to announce the deployment of a new community-run MQTT sandbox to replace it.
