I have HAss installed on a raspberry Pi 3b (using the hass.io image)
Aeotec Z-stick is controlling;
Aeotec Motion sensor 6
Aeotec Door sensor 6 (x2)
Aeotec Smart Switch 6
Everything is running nicely. I have even managed to create a few basic automations:
Motion detected - turn switch on
Door opened - send Pushbutton notification
Motion detected at night - send Twilio voice call
So far I am really happy with HAss as a solution, it’s going great.
I now want to push some of the sensor data (motion detection) out to Microsoft Azure so that I can experiment with their analytics. It looks like the best way to do this is via MQTT? (I have the MQTT broker installed and running but I am not sure of the next steps).
Can anyone point me to an example of how this could be done?
I’d love to hear how you did this. I’d like to move my DB off my Pi and have it stored in the cloud, but not too sure how to achieve this. Any advice much appreciated! Mat
A bunch of people have done this now so with luck you should be able to get support from a few other places. Let me know if you need any more information though.
