Hi,
If any of you happens to be at FOSDEM 16 in Brussels this weekend, let’s meet at the Open Game Development devroom:

Hi Franco,

Sounds interesting.

Will be there any online translation available for this lecture?

Hi Franco,

I won’t be able to come to FOSDEM but some of the talks look interesting. Did you manage to go to this one:

Mainflux sounds like Tango for IoT. It would be interesting to add support for the protocols in Mainflux like MQTT and CoAP. What is Swagger ? Could it be useful for Tango? I don’t get it (yet).

Good luck with your talk - sounds very interesting! Great to see a talk related to Tango at this well known event:

Ciao

Hi Ingvord,

There is supposed to be a live streaming from here:
https://fosdem.org/2016/schedule/streaming/

but yesterday it didn’t seem yet fully operational

Hi Andy,

Thanks for the suggestion. I will try to attend to the Mainflux speech today.

I have recorded the video. So in case someone is interested contact me.

Cheers,

Agh! You’ve said it too close to the Friday opening event and I’ve missed your announcement. I would like to see, at least, the video of the talk.

Hello,
I am leader of Mainflux project (GitHub - mainflux/mainflux: Industrial IoT Messaging and Device Management Platform), and I have stumbled upon this thread.

First I want to thank you for interest in Mainflux.
I want also to underline that Mainflux is in the “infancy” stage, and that many of it’s features have not been integrated. Over the last 6 months we have evaluated different approaches and saw that we need easier integration of cloud components (pub-sub broker, authentication and identification proxy servers, IoT agents - CoAP, LWM2M and MQTT server, etc…).

This is why we recently started transition to Fiware project (https://www.fiware.org/), so I advise you that you hold-on for a couple of weeks before forking a project because there will be massive changes (although architecture and philosophy should stay the same, and this is described more or less here: FOSDEM 2016 - Interview with Drasko Draskovic<br/>Mainflux. Open Source IoT Cloud).

We think that there can be a lot of benefits for both Mainflux and Tango project to have some way of inter-operability, especially because we hope that we will reach industrial level thanks to Fiware, and also our future plans to add oneM2M standard (http://www.onem2m.org/) support, probably via OpenDaylight project (https://wiki.opendaylight.org/view/IoTDM:Main).

We would like to work with Tango developers to figure out how we can attach to Tango system gateway and exchange messages. Mainflux supports following protocols:

  • CoAP (and LWM2M)
  • MQTT
  • HTTP RESTful
  • WebSocket

And with transition to Fiware we will probably provide a NGSI (http://technical.openmobilealliance.org/Technical/technical-information/release-program/current-releases/ngsi-v1-0) hooks also.

Preferred way for low-power sensors will stay LWM2M, gateways and applications will probably use HTTP or WebSocket (for server notification push).

Best regards,
Drasko

Hi Drasko,

There is an ongoing project to define the RESTful API Specification for Tango: here. I am currently working on its Java implementation. So REST can be the first approach for high-level integration.

Look forward.

Hi Ingvord,

Great, this looks like a well crafted API on a first look. I will give it a spin these days and keep you posted with my suggestions.

BR,
Drasko

Great talk Franco! I saw the talk just after I watched the movie The Martian - this made the topic of living on Mars even more real.
