IoT network connectivity

You'd think we'd be able to take network connectivity for granted. IoT devices, in particular, are dependent on connectivity as functionality moved to the cloud. How do devices recover unattended? How do you reduce cost via multiple network technologies?

The Nerves project has a new open-source network configuration library for IoT devices called VintageNet. This talk introduces the project and describes how companies are using it for reliable connectivity via multi-homing, LTE-fallback, and mesh networking.

OBJECTIVES

The talk's goals are to illustrate IoT network reliability issues and discuss ways of addressing them on embedded systems using Elixir and Nerves.

TARGET AUDIENCE

Nerves, embedded systems, and IoT developers and technologists.
