An Internet of Things solution will always need to connect devices, collect data, assemble events and do so in a way that is managed. With this introduction to the IBM Internet of Things Foundation, learn how all of this is delivered in a cloud hosted service and make it the platform on which you build your next set of innovations.

Enabled
by Cloud
makers operators
The creation of smarter,
connected products will
redefine every industry
with new capabilities that
improve functionality,
reduce costs, and deliver
new value
The operation of old and
new systems, now
integrated with intelligent
things, can become
interactive, reactive, and
adaptive; to each other,
people and places
INSIGHT
changes the way we
design, secure, and operate

4. What can you do with IoT data
Monetize
• Charge for usage that is tracked by things
• Enable Pay-per-use models of things
Optimize
• Improve efficiency of activities with data from
things
• Anticipate & predict optimal actions and
responses
Extend
• Provide more value through connected things
• Deliver data, content, services through things
Control
• Remotely affect behavior by controlling things
• Make remote adjustments to optimize things

7. IBM has been delivering Internet Of Things
solutions for a Smarter Planet even before the
campaign launch in 2008

8. Digital technologies (sensors and other monitoring
devices) are being embedded into many objects,
systems and processes.
Instrumented
In the globalized, networked world, people, systems,
objects and processes are connected, and they
are communicating with one another in entirely new
ways.
Interconnected
Leveraging the data generated by digital technology
provides intelligence to help us do things better,
improving our responsiveness and ability to predict and
optimize for future events.

25. Background

26. MQTT
Open
Lean
Simple
Reliable
Reliably and quickly deliver IoT data with MQTT
Open royalty-free spec
Wide variety of clients and servers
• Hobbyist to enterprise
• Open source to commercial
Minimal pub/sub messaging
semantics
• Asynchronous (“push”)
delivery
• Simple set of verbs --
connect, publish, subscribe
and disconnect
Minimized on-the-wire format
• Smallest packet size 2 bytes
Scalable
Low footprint
• Clients: C=30Kb; Java=100Kb
Three qualities of service
• 0 – at most once delivery
• 1 – assured delivery dups ok
• 2 – once and once only delivery
Copes with loss of contact between client
and server.
• “Last will and testament” to publish a
message if the client goes offline.
