Developing software for IoT comes with its own set of challenges. Security, privacy, and unified standards are a few key issues. In addition, each IoT product is comprised of at least three separate application components: the software embedded in the device, the backend service, and the mobile application for the end user’s controls. Each component is developed by a different team, using different technologies and practices, and deployed to a different stack/target – this makes the integration of these separate pipelines and the coordination of software updates for IoT is more problematic. How do you coordinate the diverse moving parts that must come together when developing an IoT product or updating each of its components? At this session, the presenter addressed some of the challenges and shared some tips and best practices used by IoT developers to streamline and accelerate their product design, development, test and manufacturing.
