What is IoT?

A talk given during the AFNOG-2019 conference

Abstract:

Everybody is talking about IoT, the Internet of Things. However, few are the people who deeply understand what is hidden behind the acronym and even fewer those who are able to set-up an IoT by themselves. The talk will answer questions on how to select a processor for the IoT node, how to connect to the Internet, which communications protocol to use, which programming language, which GUI application to observe and control the IoT.

Another important question is: How much is this going to cost me.

At the end of the talk a simplistic home built IoT will be demonstrated, illustrating the theoretical aspects shown.
