New release 2.12 of Live Objects
New stuff on Device and Data management, monitor your private LoRa gateway traffic, a bunch of connectors to extend your IoT ecosystem with Live Objects, and new SDKs!
Monitor last values reported by your device with our new widget
In addition to line chart and histogram, you can now display the historical series of a device’s data on your custom dashboard. This widget also features thresholds, to automatically highlight alert values.
New features on Device management
Set parameters for your MQTT devices before installation or power up
This new feature allows you to set the parameters of your MQTT devices right after provisioning on Live Objects. It removes the need to wait for the parameters declaration by the device upon its first connection to Live Objects, and allows for massive device configuration ahead of powering up.
Perform secure firmware or resource updates on your MQTT or SMS devices
Stay secure by setting a default security policy for over-the-air updates to your devices orchestrated by Live Objects, whether for firmware, configuration files or other generic resources.
Find the right firmware or resource version for your deployment
Our new autocomplete engine refines the list of matching files as you type to help you find the right version of resource to deploy on your devices.
Route data more efficiently
Route command status events
Routing command status events is even more user-friendly now that you can use the web portal in addition to the existing APIs. Filters can also be set when defining the routing rule.
Filter data message based on tags
The existing data message routing has also been an updated with the ability to filter messages based on tags that you can set at the device or message level.
New API to route data to Azure Event Hub
This new release offers also the ability to route your data to Azure Event Hub using a dedicated API that wraps up the calls to the Azure platform. We spare you the hassle of composing the HTTP push yourself!
Monitor traffic on your private LoRa gateways
Our LoRa customers using private gateways can now monitor devices and uplink traffic handled by their gateways.
Connect Live Objects easily to your IoT environment
Live Objects can easily fit into your IoT environment using our open source external connectors, available on Github.
Kerlink connector
The Kerlink connector enables connecting your private Kerlink LoRa network server to Live Objects. It will automatically sync the device fleet and exchange data and commands with your Kerlink NS.
Please contact us if you are a customer of the IoT Connect Low Power offer and want to use this feature.
Azure IoT Hub connector
Alike the Kerlink connector, the Azure IoT Hub connector will sync your Live Objects fleet with Azure IoT Hub, forward your IoT data to Azure and process commands to your devices initiated from Azure.
SDK for external connector
You can use our SDK for external connector to develop a bridge between any proprietary device or device cloud and Live Objects. This connector supports device management operations (including device status and commands) and data forwarding to Live Objects.
Please contact us if you are a customer of the IoT Connect Low Power offer and want to use this feature.
Connector for Eurotech’s IoT Edge solution
Live Objects supports your Edge use-cases with the Eurotech solution. We provide a Node-RED connector that makes the link between Live Objects and Eurotech Everyware Cloud that orchestrates your Edge nodes and devices.
SDK reloaded
We have new revisions of the Arduino and the Linux Raspberry SDKs!
The new Arduino SDK is far more accessible and simple to use. It supports (almost) the whole MKR family plus the IoT Nano 33 board. Cellular boards can also use the SMS protocol to communicate with Live Objects.
