I am familiar with cloud tech but not IOT (just getting started).
my goal: get Withings and Zigbee sensor data from my Raspberry PI/Home Assistant securely forwarded to a cloud instance. The data only needs to go 1 way (to cloud).
2 questions:
- What’s the best way to set this architecture up?
- What is the best open-source platform to catch the data (that supports Docker). I’ve been reading about these but would like to hear a recommendation since i’m just getting started:
- thingsboard.io
- Mainflux
I am also following along with https://medium.com/@crhuber/monitoring-plants-with-aws-iot-and-home-assistant-e5aaae42a582 to get the general idea with AWS IOT but am more interested in whats the best approach from your perspective.
