Details:

First I’d like to thank Greg Trasuk of Webage Solutions for generously sponsoring the snacks and drinks for our next meetup. Now, I just have to see about sneaking beer into CoMotion 😉

Also, I’d like to thank everyone who come out to the last meeting. I’m sure you were as disappointed as I was that the Onion folks did not make it. But Its understandable. BTW their Kickstarter reached ~$672K!!! Hopefully I will be able to get them to come to a future meetup.

This time around I’m going talk about the many different ways that microcontrollers can interact with other devices and services on the internet. Its not just about getting data off a sensor platform to a database or webpage. A large part of IoT cloud computing is connecting IoT devices, web APIs for services, databases, and other devices together to create applications. There are a lot of offerings out there from Temboo on the simple side to the full blown enterprise IoT cloud solutions offered by the big players such as Amazon. And the Omega has its own cloud solution as well.

If anyone else is interested in presenting a talk, let me know.
