| Semtech LoRa Technology Leveraged for Flood Sensor System
Semtech has announced that Green Stream has designed its LoRa devices and wireless radio frequency technology (LoRa technology) and Senet's LoRaWAN-based network into its autonomous flood sensor systems for use in coastal areas, including towns and cities.
Green Stream's solutions use LoRa Technology, a proven technology leaderused in IoT environmental solutions. Green Stream's end-to-end flood monitoring solutions are designed using commercial, off-the-shelf ultrasonic sensors and easy-to-deploy LoRa-enabled gateways. The data is communicated over a LoRaWAN-based network provided by Senet, a leading provider of Cloud-based LoRaWAN services platforms that enable the on-demand build out and management of IoT connectivity. The Green Stream LoRa-based flood sensors are autonomous, requiring no external power or wired network connection.

Managed Linux and Zephyr Distros for IoT Offer OTA and Container Tech
A Cambridge, UK based startup called Foundries.io, which is funded by Linaro and led by former Linaro exec George Grey, has launched a microPlatforms service with managed, subscription-based Linux and Zephyr distributions. The microPlatforms offering will target IoT, edge, and automotive applications and provide continuous over-the-air (OTA) updates to improve security.
The distributions are designed to work with any private or public cloud platform, with the microPlatform cloud service acting as an intermediary. The microPlatforms packages include firmware, kernel, services, and applications, "delivered continuously from initial product design to end-of-life," says Foundries.io.
Benefits from microPlatforms include improved security, lower development costs, and "faster time-to-market for products across a wide range of IoT connected devices," says the company. There's also a combined Linux/Zephyr offering that bridges both sides of the IoT architectural divide designed for projects that include both a Linux gateway/edge device and Zephyr controlled sensor devices.

IIoT Evolution: An Approach To Reuse And Scale Your IIoT Technology Investment
This white paper introduces an IoT framework that complements and extends the massive investments made by cloud vendors to provide comprehensive IIoT features that can be implemented down to the hardware of the edge or end node devices - and can be ported across platforms and clouds. The benefits of using a framework such as MEIF are abundantly clear: minimize learning curves, simplify implementations, increase code reuse, reduce porting costs and reduce testing.
