IoT

Open-source system for integrating resource-constrained IoT devices like ESP32-based MCUs into Kubernetes-managed environments with secure onboarding and OTA management.

The world of IoT is expanding rapidly, bringing with it a growing demand for scalable, secure, and efficient device management solutions. Traditional approaches often struggle with the complexities of managing heterogeneous fleets of devices while ensuring secure operations and reliable software delivery. Our Cloud-Native IoT project addresses these challenges by leveraging k8s to provide a unified, highly automated, and secure ecosystem tailored for IoT environments.

As the Internet of Things (IoT) continues to expand, managing a large number of heterogeneous devices with diverse requirements and characteristics has become essential. The Cloud computing ecosystem has provided a vast amount of tools to efficiently manage workload deployments. However, there is a huge gap between the requirements of Cloud infrastructure as opposed to Edge or IoT infrastructure. One crucial difference is the diversity and resource constraints of IoT devices. As billions of devices become part of our environment, the need for secure, robust device management and seamless integration into higher-level orchestration frameworks becomes increasingly critical.

Have you ever found yourselves scratching your heads over perplexing connectivity issues? If you’re anything like us, you’ve probably encountered your fair share of head-scratching moments. In this short post, we would like to share one such experience we recently tackled while trying to connect our ESP32 devices to our office Wi-Fi Access Point (AP).
