Getting Started with IoT using SystemLink Cloud

This is lab 16 of 17 in the course

by Enable Education

In this lab, students will implement a cloud-based IoT platform using SystemLink Cloud. Students will experiment with a monitoring system and central processing web package. Additionally, they will learn about best practices, tools, and capabilities of the SystemLink Cloud platform. Finally, students implement a measurement from their own edge-node device and write it to the cloud.
