Every solution that is in some way related to the IoT needs a platform; learn how to create that platform with us. This book is about being agile and reducing your time to market without breaking the bank. It is about designing something that can scale incrementally without rework and potentially disrupting the current work.
So, the key questions are: What does it take? How long does it take? And, how much does it take to build your own IoT platform? This book answers these questions and provides you with step-by-step guide to building your own IoT platform.
In this book, the author highlights what the core of an IoT platform looks like. There are always some must-haves and some nice-to-haves. This book distinguishes the two and focuses on building the must-haves. Building your IoT platform is not only the most significant cost-saver but can also be a satisfying learning experience. This edition will extend your work with a sample project to clarify the concepts and show you the possibilities. Additional chapters will also shed some light on the hardware interface and considerations.
