Information on Time- Remote Data Ingestion and Transf. with NiFi/MiNiFi and IoT

Interested in accessing remote data from a variety of sensors and hardware with an easy-to-use, secure dataflow platform? Apache NiFi is being used in real world IoT, ICS, and connected vehicle deployments to gather massive amounts of data in real-time, process, transform, and transmit that data across the world, and allow analysts and monitors to derive real value from information that was previously unavailable, unorganized, or outdated.

Andy LoPresto, a committer and PMC member for Apache NiFi, will present about IoT use cases and development with NiFi and the sub-project Apache MiNiFi. Learn about the design philosophies of flow-based programming and NiFi's implementation, and see demonstrations of interaction with devices like thermometers and thermistors, credit card and identification card readers, and a surprising tool chain invented by a desperate father (not Andy).

The goal of this meetup is for you to walk away with new capabilities, ideas, and enthusiasm for developing IoT systems and applications.

While the presentation will focus on IoT interaction, if you have questions about NiFi behaviour or deployment in any scenario, a Q&A session will provide ample discussion and opportunity for collaboration, so feel free to ask.

The agenda for the evening:
• 5:30pm – 6:00pm: Getting to the Venue and Social
• 6:00pm – 6:05pm: Welcome
• 6:05pm – 6:50pm: Speaker (Topic of the night + Demo)
