IoTFuse 2019 - Workshops

How This Fits Into IoT
We have developed a fully open source internet of things platform which can be deployed both on the edge, on premise or on the cloud.
This IoT platform has many features including deployment managing devices, managing connected devices, as well as the actuators and sensors themselves.
This platform is massively scalable, it can be deployed on something as small as a Raspberry Pi device or something as large as a big data center deployment.

What Attendees Do
1) Attendees will deploy Mainflux locally to their website and connect simple sensors to their personal laptop to simulate on-premise type deployments.
2) As a secondary, if we can get through things, we will do the same with Raspberry Pi's to simulate edge style deployments.

Learning Objectives
Assuming we get through all of the goals of the class, the attendees will be able to see how a scalable system can deploy on the three pillars of modern architecture deployment: edge devices (RPis), local machines (on-premise) and on the cloud.

What Attendees Bring
Minimum: Personal Laptop which either windows, linux or mac.
(Optional): Attendees may bring their own Raspberry Pis if they have them in order to follow along completely from the edge device standpoint from the beginning if they wish.

Knowledge Required
Basic knowledge of how docker works, and basic knowledge about networking. Just check out this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_dfLOzuIg2o

Pre-Class Setup
Pre-installing docker would be encouraged, but this only takes 5 minutes so we can do this in the session if needed.

What Attendees Receive
We are completely free as an open source platform so all of our software can be downloaded. For now we can do consulting on this software if it works for you, in the future we will be constructing our own cloud platform!
