Feed: Severalnines. Choosing your HA topologyThere are various ways to retain high availability with databases. You can use Virtual IPs (VRRP) to manage host availability, you can use resource managers like Zookeeper and Etcd to (re)configure your applications or use load balancers/proxies to distribute the workload over all available hosts. The Virtual IPs need either an application to manage them (MHA, Orchestrator), some scripting (KeepaliveD, Pacemaker/Corosync) or an engineer to manually fail over and the decision making in the process can become complex. The Virtual IP failover is a straightforward and simple process by removing the IP address from one ... Read More

Feed: The Internet of Things on AWS – Official Blog. Author: Michael Garcia. You can connect securely millions of objects to AWS IoT using our AWS SDKs or the AWS IoT Device SDKs. In the context of industrial IoT, objects are usually connected to a gateway for multiple reasons: sensors can be very constrained and not able to directly connect to the cloud, sensors are only capable of using other protocols than MQTT or you might might need to perform analytics and processing locally on the gateway.One feature of local MQTT broker is called ‘Bridge’ and will enable you to ...

Feed: The Internet of Things on AWS – Official Blog. Author: Rameez Loladia. In an earlier blog post about certificates, we discussed how use-your-own-certificate support in AWS IoT lets customers use device certificates signed and issued by their own certificate authority (CA) to connect and authenticate with AWS IoT. This is an alternative to using certificates generated by AWS IoT.Using your own certificate with AWS IoT is a two-step process: The first step is to register the CA certificate that signed and issued the device certificates. After registration, any device certificate that was signed by the CA can be registered ... Read More

Feed: The Internet of Things on AWS – Official Blog. Author: Eeshan Thakar. In AWS IoT, you can create a device shadow (sometimes referred to as a thing shadow) that will be used as a communication layer between your mobile/cloud application and your devices connected to AWS IoT. The shadow is a persistent, virtual representation of your devices. Because it always has a point-in-time view of the state of your device, it’s easy to write applications that interact with your devices through device shadows.When you update the shadow of your device, the Thing Shadows service will typically publish two messages: /update/accepted or /update/rejectedThis ...

Feed: The Internet of Things on AWS – Official Blog. Author: Rameez Loladia. IntroductionAWS IoT now supports Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) for devices connecting to AWS IoT using TLS. You can now request an EC-based certificate for your device from AWS IoT or register your device using an existing EC-based certificate in order to establish a TLS connection. You can also connect your devices to AWS IoT using EC-based cipher suites for enhanced security on your TLS communications. This blog will discuss the use of EC-based certificates to establish TLS connections. First, it will describe how to request an EC-based ... Read More
