Paul Barker - Open Source IoT with ThingsBoard & SanTrack

This talk will introduce the ThingsBoard Open-source IoT platform
and SanCloud's SanTrack IoT Platform. Using these technologies you
can take full control over your IoT data and control plane, running
the server software on-site or in the cloud, with self-hosting or
managed hosting. This flexibility empowers device owners, allows for
improved data privacy and prevents lock-in.
Paul will discuss the features provided by this software, including:

• Telemetry collection, visualization, analysis and alerting
• Device management
• Multiple tiers of access management and security
• Data processing using Rule Chains
• Multiple protocol support
• Edge computing using the IoT Gateway
• Remote attestation and improved security using Micron Authenta technology
  Paul will also provide a demo using the SanCloud BeagleBone Enhanced (BBE) hardware platform and a small Python application to collect sensor data and submit it to SanTrack for analysis.
