Just a bit of Apache Camel
Sometimes you write something and then you nearly forget that you did it … although it is quite handy sometimes, here are a few lines of Apache Camel XML running in Eclipse Kura:
Talking to the cloud
While working on Eclipse Kapua, I wanted to do different tests, pushing telemetry data into the system. So I started to work on the Kura simulator, which can used to simulator an Eclipse Kura IoT gateway in a plain Java project, no special setup required. Now that helped a lot for unit testing and scale testing. Even generating a few simple telemetry data streams for simulating data works out of the box.
Google Summer of Code 2017 with Eclipse Kapua
I am happy to announce that Eclipse Kapua got two slots in this year’s Google Summer of Code. Yes, two projects got accepted, and both are for the Eclipse Kapua project.
OPC UA with Apache Camel
Apache Camel 2.19.0 is close to is release and the OPC UA component called “camel-milo” will be part of it. This is my Eclipse Milo backed component which was previously hosted in my personal GitHub repository ctron/de.dentrassi.camel.milo. It now got accepted into Apache Camel and will be part of the 2.19.0 release. As there are already a release candidates available, I think it is a great time to give a short introduction.
Simulating telemetry streams with Kapua and OpenShift
Sometimes it is necessary to have some simulated data instead of fancy sensors attached to your IoT setup. As Eclipse Kapua starts to adopt Elasticsearch, it started to seem necessary to actually unit test the inbound telemetry stream of Kapua. Data coming from the gateway, being processed by Kapua, then stored into Elasticsearch and then retrieved back from Elasticsearch over the Kapua REST API. A lot can go wrong here ;-)
