I'm an IoT Advisor and Trainer.
I believe in quality.
I do not support "fake it before you make it".
I write about #IoT, #security, and #aws related topics.
They are old-school and not readable, or would they make things easier to understand?
I can not judge as the ASCII is the natural environment for me. I have played the Dwarf Fortress and Cataclysm DDA without tilesets for way too long ;)
"I love your content, but what do you actually offer?"
That is a question I often hear, which proves two things:
It makes sense to put hours into creating content.
I should improve the description of my services.
Believe it or not, I have already made a few attempts to express my value proposition as plainly as possible. Received questions confirm that I should do a better job in my communication.
Please let me know if the following description is clear.
Cloud is just a single piece in the Internet of Things puzzle. IoT deployments likewise demand domain-specific knowledge and non-cloud skills to build complete solutions.
Simple IoT use cases are not headline topics. There is no way to hide the lack of business understanding and poor execution behind vague terms and buzzwords. The solution either provides business value or does not. For that reason, I am a big fan of those straightforward IoT use cases.
@vsaw@jadp I agree that the name is not that important, and we should focus on the business outcomes. Unfortunately, big (consulting) companies pushed the IoT conversation into the buzzword territory without providing any real value. That led to failed PoCs and unsatisfied customers/users. Luckily, the hype is over, and we can focus on solving real challenges.
@Jeremiah@jadp I am not against the cloud. That is just a tool that provides value when used appropriately. For my customers, I position the cloud as the "infinite processing and storage capabilities." It is not the ultimate solution, but IoT deployments benefit from it.
MQTT is an OASIS standard messaging protocol for the Internet of Things (IoT). It is of the most popular protocols in the Internet of Things domain. AWS supports MQTT, which is the default communication method between devices and AWS IoT Core service. But there are some significant differences between the implementation of the MQTT protocol at AWS and the OASIS specification.
