Connecting Raspberry pi with IBM cloud.

  • 1.  Connecting Raspberry pi with IBM cloud.

    Posted Wed December 09, 2020 11:53 AM

    Hello , I am really new to IBM cloud and their amazing services, there is a lot of resources and documents to get started but I really got confused .

    what I want to do is to connect my raspberry pi where there is a node red flow which read the data from the sensors and process these data.

    i want to store these data (real time) and then analyze these data to provide reports about the system .

    Do you want to connect your device directly to cloud services or to Watson IoT? If the latter one is the thing you wanna wish to do you will need a Bluemix Account, Raspbian Jessie account, a Raspberry Pi Model B/ Model B+/ 2, and minimim 8GB SD card. After you make sure that you have all the necessary stuff you can use:

    sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install nodered

    And then to start the Node-red:

    node-red-start

    There are a lot of useful material on the internet, you can follow the instructions and do whatever you want with it. I'm using my Raspberry Pi

    to control my home security system of my property in Spain and I must admit that it's very useful.
