Coping with Aging (Data) – IoT on AWS – A Philly Cloud Computing Event

Data has different purposes over time: when fresh, it can be used for real-time decision-making; as it ages, it becomes useful for analytics; eventually, it becomes a record, useful or perhaps not. Each of these stages requires a different approach to storage and management, and this talk looks at appropriate ways to work with your data at the different stages of its life.

That’s not a Data Lake, THIS is a Data Lake – IoT on AWS – A Philly Cloud Computing Event

This talk will review two common use cases for the use of captured metric data: 1) Real-time analysis, visualization, and quality assurance, and 2) Ad-hoc analysis. The most common open source streaming options will be mentioned, however this talk be concerned with Apache Flink specifically. A brief discussion of Apache Beam will also be included in the context of the larger discussion of a unified data processing model.

Amplify your Mobile App – IoT on AWS – A Philly Cloud Computing Event

In this session we will walk through the steps required to securely communicate with your device using the Device Shadow service. This will include an overview of user authentication and authorization, connecting to AWS IoT, and using MQTT to communicate with the device’s “Device Shadow” to read and update its state. All this, using the AWS Amplify CLI and SDK.

Know your Costs – IoT on AWS – A Philly Cloud Computing Event

Amazon uses a “pay as you go” pricing model: you pay for the resources that you use, and in most cases don’t need to pre-allocate resources. While this allows your business to scale, it means that each component of your data pipeline will incur a separate charge, which can obscure the overall cost of running the pipeline. This talk will examine those changes, along with strategies for partitioning those costs between your clients or organizational units.
