As IoT continues to expand into new and existing markets, the need for a robust and scalable framework to manage these IoT applications is more important than ever. IoT developers should not be burdened with designing and implementing standard pillars of an IoT application.

Eclipse Kura (https://eclipse.org/kura) is a Java/OSGi based software framework that meets these needs by enabling rapid development and deployment of IoT applications.
Please join this discussion as we present an overview of Eclipse Kura, provide a look real world use cases, layout future plans of Eclipse Kura, and discuss how you can contribute to the project.
