Use Oracle Internet of Things Cloud Service to securely connect all your devices to Oracle Internet of
Things Cloud Service, gather valuable data from those devices, analyze and
process the data received in real time, and deliver the processed data to your
enterprise applications or other integrated services.
So how do we get started? First, we need to make sure the device model we want to use already exists.
Then, we create an IOT application that will be used to address a specific
business problem. An IoT application requires association with the device
model, definition of an exploration, and the creation of an integration with one
or more external systems. We can then optionally filter the participating
devices now or at a later time. After the IoT application is defined, we have to
register and activate the devices that we want to be part of that IoT
application's scope. Now let's step through those tasks. The first thing we need to
do is make sure the device model we need is available. A device model specifies
the specific message format and resources the device provides. It lets
Oracle Internet of Things Cloud Service know how to interact with that device.
Devices can support multiple device models. If the model we need isn't there
yet, we can add it. Here we use the temperature sensor device model.
Let's briefly look at that. This URN serves as the unique ID for this
device model. This temperature sensor device model defines the temperature
attribute, a testme action, alert message, and a data message that the device
can send. You can define more of these if needed.
So now we have a device model. now we're ready to create an IoT Application. [silence as IoT application is named ]
Associate the IoT Application to the temperature sensor device model we
looked at earlier. Define the explorations that will allow us to
analyze and process the data sent by the devices using the temperature device
model. [silence as exploration is published]
Next, we can integrate the IoT application with existing enterprise
applications or other supported external services. The integration allows processed data
and alert messages to be sent to the integrated applications or services for
further analysis or processing. At this point we can optionally refine this set
of devices that we want our IoT application to use., The default is that
all the registered devices that support the associated device models are
included in the total devices count. We're done defining the IoT application. Now we
have to make sure that the devices are registered with the Oracle Internet of
Things Cloud Service. These devices must support the device models used in the
IoT application to be included in the application's scope. We can register a
single device or a batch of our devices by using a CSV file.
Let's quickly register a single device. Device ID and
Shared Secret values are assigned after registration. We need those values when
we are configuring the registered device. The next steps are to download, install
and configure the Oracle Internet of Things Cloud Service Client Software on
the registered device. When we start that software it activates the device to
start a secure connection with our Oracle Internet of Things Cloud Service
instance. The connection is now established, so we can monitor the
activities within the scope of the IoT application using the application's
dashboard or from the Oracle Internet of Things Cloud Service Home page.
