IoT

There are several ongoing initiatives that aim at standardizing protocols and interfaces in order to enable a truly interoperable Internet of Things. On the protocol front, I would certainly argue that the technology is already there and over the last decade standards organizations like OASIS, IETF or the Bluetooth SIG...

I’ve recently been playing around with Snappy Ubuntu Core, and I thought it would be a nice exercise to try and package Mosquitto as a so-called “Snap”. This blog post will give you a quick introduction to Snappy, and what it means to have a technology like Mosquitto available as...

We are happy to co-organize an IoT breakfast together with Eclipse Foundation member SQS, on May 21 in Madrid (Ayre Gran Hotel Colón). I’ve already been asked “An IoT breakfast? What’s that!?” – well, think of it as your regular meetup, only we’re doing it in the morning rather than...

At EclipseCon 2015, I spoke with Alex Blewitt from InfoQ, and gave an update on the cool stuff happening at Eclipse IoT. It is hard to believe that it is only two years since my last interview with Alex – so many new projects and companies involved today! Check out...

Last week I gave a presentation at Devoxx and shared the floor with my esteemed colleague Wayne Beaton. While he covered some of the very cool feature being baked into the Eclipse IDE for the upcoming Mars release, I did talk about the Eclipse IoT technology portfolio, in particular what...

Here is the recording of my presentation on Device Management with LwM2M at FOSDEM’15. Abstract: LwM2M is a standard for device management that solves many of the issues M2M and IoT solutions makers have faced in the past (or, let’s be realistic, are still facing), with custom protocols or even...

Oh boy, this has been a difficult call, but we are happy to finally be able to announce the three winners of our Open IoT Challenge! The challenge has been keeping our participants busy for two months, and I’ve already blogged about the ten awesome projects that actually completed their...

The Open IoT challenge ended earlier this week, and it was pretty exciting to see the final submissions coming in the form of blog posts and video during the last hours before the deadline. Below are the 10 projects who validated their participation to the challenge, together with the links...

There are only a few days left for the participants to the Open IoT Challenge to wrap up their projects and share the final results of what they have achieved over the course of the last couple months. I have to say that I’ve been impressed by the quality of...

Please take 5 minutes of your time to complete the IoT Developer Survey. There are many different approaches to IoT, and we would like to understand better the current technology trends, how mature the industry is, and how the current industry players are perceived. Of course, at Eclipse we are...
