• Desire to understand device to cloud communication
• Experience with a basic IDE like Arduino
• Amazon AWS familiarity is helpful

Description:

This course explores the various features of device to cloud communication using Amazon AWS IoT  Core on a AWS  free tier account.  

Before the course starts we need an AWS free tier account, a local installation of the AWS CLI tool, and installation of the MQTT.fx testing tool (all free).  After this is set up we will program inexpensive, WiFi enabled embedded devices, like the ESP8266, ESP32 and Raspberry Pi 3 to communicate with AWS IoT Core over MQTT.   Before programming any hardware we use 
 

We will take advantage of free "Internet of Things" (IoT) prototyping development environments, like Mongoose OS in JavaScript, Arduino in C, Zernyth in Python, AWS FreeRTOS in C,  and the AWS IoT SDK in both JavaScript and Python for the Raspberry Pi to program our inexpensive WiFi devices.
 

You will at least one or more of the following devices to transmit data to AWS IoT unless you just plan on using the MQTT.fx testing tool.  The course continues on with programming our embedded devices to send data from the device to the AWS cloud.  To transmit our data we will use the built in MQTT broker on our devices firmware, sending JSON encoded sensor data, to the AWS IoT console.
 

Device                                     Development Environment                Programming Language

ESP8266                                  Mongoose OS, Arduino/Node-RED       JavaScript, Arduino

ESP32                                       Arduino, Zerynth, FreeRTOS                  JavasScript, Python, Arduino, C

Raspberry Pi 3 Model B        AWS IoT SDK                                             JavaScript, Python

From within the IoT console we will create AWS IoT “Rules” and “Actions” to explore many of the built in AWS IoT enabled services that are integrated in the AWS IoT Core console on the AWS cloud. Creating rules-based actions to AWS services we will send, store, file, manipulate, graph and analyze our sensor data through a variety of important AWS applications.   Some of these integrated applications, using these rule-based actions, are Dynamo Database, S3, SNS, Lambda, Data Pipeline, Glue,  QuickSight, AWS IoT Analytics, and SageMaker.

IoT is largely the fusion of devices and the web, specifically the cloud; all sending and recording data, ubiquitously and continually, everywhere. Understanding and being able to  prototype and implement an end-to-end, device to cloud path communication is a much in demand career skill. 

What else makes my course different? Its the combination of hardware and software which is the true essence of IoT development.  So you are more than one step ahead of the embedded system/hardware only person who is working with archaic C coding in a hardware specific schema on a $10,000 Keil or IAR workbench.  After completing the course you will also have a leg up on the Software or web developer who thinks IoT is just programming HTML/CSS/JavaScript/Jquery/Node.js/PHP  and writing HTTP API's.

Having the skills to build a prototyping IoT solution in the cloud is already an important and highly demanded skill set for those wanting to call themselves IoT developers, and this is more true as time goes on and IoT exponentially expands as cheap connected devices become wide-spread.
