Abstract
So you want to connect a “thing”…. or many “things”? In this journey, you need to make a very important decision (among many): which wireless protocol is right for your use case and how do you choose your platform? At the end of the day, no matter how good your application, if you don’t have reliable connectivity, you just have a [dumb] thing!
In this talk, we’ll cover the details of LoRa, how it works, what makes it special, discuss well fit use cases and poorly fit use cases — it all comes down to the application and its specific communication needs. We’ll also talk about what an IoT platform really is and how to choose one based on current and future business needs.
