Strategy for Cloud based IoT

Refer to this information available on Oracle's web site:

Oracle Cloud IoT example using Java

Following are the actors in the IoT Architecture:
(1) The Device (s), for ex, wearable devices like watches, android or iphones, tablets, RFID tags and sensors, etc
(2) The device sends the messages to the server
(3) The server receives the message
(4) This message is then sent to the Cloud application queue for some further business processing
(5) The business processing could be taking further action like sending  an alert to the Fire Department in case of Fire
(6) Generally Business Analytics or Data warehouse reporting using for ex, Hadoop and Big Data.


The above are high level actors for any cloud based IoT Architecture.

Happy IoT

Cloud9 - Web browser based IDE

Hello

The IDEs are changing now, and one such interesting IDE is Cloud9. You can manage your entire codebase on the web browser and can work directly with Git or BitBucket code repositories, to name a few features.

The c9 IDE is available here:
https://c9.io/

Currently it supports many programming languages including basic support for Java. But considering it is now part of the AWS, you can expect many more developments for this product.

Thanks

Apache Camel Examples Source Code

The developers find it easy to learn new technologies by looking at the examples source code provided with the technology.

I have provided some links below which provides link to the variety of the samples source code for Apache Camel.

1. http://camel.apache.org/how-can-i-get-the-source-code.html
2. http://camel.apache.org/download.html
3. http://camel.apache.org/examples.html

Apache Camel is doing really well in the public sector projects because of the simplicity of it's technology, abundance of the technology books, very large open source community support and lastly it's commercial integration in Red Hat Fuse ESB product. The investment from Red Hat has really made a lot of difference for Apache Camel project's popularity in large scale public sector and private sector projects.

Happy playing with Apache Camel Examples and learning and mastering new technology.

Udemy - IT Training courses

I am using an excellent IT Training web site which has numerous training modules for a fee (some are free!!)

The quality of the courses are really good and sometimes the courses are so advanced that the books are not available for those advanced courses. Also, reading so many books can be boring, but these video courses are very effective and are divided into small sub topics.

Also, once you purchase the course module, you can access it for lifetime.

Here's the link to the web site - https://www.udemy.com/courses/

37 things one Architect knows - Book

I recently came across this book - 37 things one Architect knows

Though I have  not completed reading it, it is an interesting read. You can get technology books anywhere but this book is special in the way it is written. It talks also about soft skills for an Architect. These are my personal views and may not necessarily be correct.
