VMware Introduces Liota – The IoT Developer’s Dream
- mdorazio 10y agoIs software for handling data really the worst thing about IoT development right now? For me it's the lack of cheap 3G hardware (Particle is about the only thing on the market and it's really expensive), and the lack of tooling for getting data from poorly documented sensors developed by god knows what company in China from the device to the web. Storing or routing data once it's online isn't that difficult.

- karmicthreat 10y agoI'm not entirely unconvinced that this isn't the IoT equivalent of bike-shedding. So many companies are operating in the IoT data channel space and not enough in the actually getting the data space. I'm using a particle for a production project right now because 300$ for a cloudgate cell router and 20$ a month for 250M of which I maybe need 2M is ridiculous. The only reason I am even using cellular is because it is such a colossal pain to get on-premises wifi access in a factory. Like 2 weeks of back and forth with plant IT. If anyone has a good possible solution for this problem I will be your technical co-founder tomorrow.
- Qworg 10y agoThe problem with solving the "getting the data" problem is that it has hardware margins, which are slimmer than software. Everyone wants to "be the intelligence" since that scales infinitely and at close to zero marginal cost. As for your issue, send me an email. =D

- staticvar 10y agoWhat does this project bring to the table? The examples are Python scripts that we could already write on a Raspberry Pi.
