Tim Spann of Hortonworks discusses Apache MiniFi, Nifi, and deep learning tools and techniques with Chariot’s Ken Rimple after the IoT Fusion conference. This screencast includes some live demos of the tooling available via Apache and Hortonworks open source developers. Tim Spann can be reached via Twitter as @PaasDev or via Hortonworks.
What happens when two of technology’s hottest topics merge? Get ready for the 1-2 punch of IoT plus Blockchain. From Bitcoin to Ethereum, the world is rapidly experiencing “Disruption by Blockchain.” Stemming from an experiment (Bitcoin) resulting from the global economic recession, this disruption will continue and have a far greater impact than that from … Read More
IoT is being used by many industries to develop creative solutions to solve their everyday business issues. However, the secret sauce is Cognitive computing. Put the power of your IoT data to work with cognitive capabilities and analytics to uncover insights for your business. From saving Rhinos in South Africa to preventative maintenance in automobiles, … Read More
This talk will provide an overview of the internet of things (IoT) distributed denial of service (DDoS) landscape. The number of known vulnerable devices continues to grow and, with it, a potential platform for malicious activity is also expanding. At the end of October 2016, Dyn was the target of a DDoS attack fueled by … Read More
We have an Alexa project where we’re using Alexa to control physical devices in the room. In a deployment, there are multiple devices in multiple rooms. But these devices aren’t lights or thermostats, so they aren’t yet candidates for the Alexa Smart Home API. A few months ago, it looked like we would have to … Read More

This session will look at building wireless sensors on a variety of hardware: the super low cost ESP8266, the Particle Photon and it’s cloud services, and the new Arduino MKR1000.
This is a continuation of my Internet of Things with Scala posting. In this installment I will go over the assembly of the device that will be used to capture the soil moisture data and send it to an MQTT broker so that it may be picked up by the Scala/Akka based application. The Parts … Read More
Last week, Lightbend (formerly Typesafe) received a cash infusion of $20M from investors (see announcement here). At Chariot, we are happy for our partner. More than that, we believe that it signals a growing trend of the importance of the convergence of IoT, mobile and the collection and use of data in real time. IDC … Read More
Inexpensive wireless microcontrollers are everywhere. This session will look at building wireless sensors on a variety of hardware: the super low cost ESP8266, the Particle Photon and it’s cloud services, and the new Arduino MKR1000. In addition to building connected devices, I’ll discuss some options for collecting, storing, and visualizing the sensor data.
There has been a great deal of buzz around the Internet of Things lately. The advent of small inexpensive devices and in particular the Arduino has inspired a generation of people with no background in electrical engineering to do some very creative things. I myself was first inspired by the Arduino and had built several … Read More
