Key benefits

  • Build robust IoT and edge computing systems using real-world architectural strategies
  • Explore a comprehensive range of technologies—from sensors and RF to cloud infrastructure and analytics
  • Gain the insights needed to make informed technical decisions across communication protocols, security, and system design

Description

Industries are embracing IoT technologies to improve operational expenses, product life, and people's well-being. An architectural guide is needed if you want to traverse the spectrum of technologies needed to build a successful IoT system, whether that's a single device or millions of IoT devices. IoT and Edge Computing for Architects, 2E encompasses the entire spectrum of IoT solutions, from IoT sensors to the cloud. It examines modern sensor systems, focusing on their power and functionality. It also looks at communication theory, paying close attention to near-range PAN, including the new Bluetooth® 5.0 specification and mesh networks. Then, the book explores IP-based communication in LAN and WAN, including 802.11ah, 5G LTE cellular, Sigfox, and LoRaWAN. It also explains edge computing, routing and gateways, and their role in fog computing, as well as the messaging protocols of MQTT 5.0 and CoAP. With the data now in internet form, you'll get an understanding of cloud and fog architectures, including the OpenFog standards. The book wraps up the analytics portion with the application of statistical analysis, complex event processing, and deep learning models. The book then concludes by providing a holistic view of IoT security, cryptography, and shell security in addition to software-defined perimeters and blockchains.

Who is this book for?

This book is for architects, system designers, technologists, and technology managers who want to understand the IoT ecosphere, technologies, and trade-offs, and develop a 50,000-foot view of IoT architecture. An understanding of the architectural side of IoT is necessary.

What you will learn

  • Understand the role and scope of architecting a successful IoT deployment
  • Scan the landscape of IoT technologies, from sensors to the cloud and more
  • See the trade-offs in choices of protocols and communications in IoT deployments
  • Become familiar with the terminology needed to work in the IoT space
  • Broaden your skills in the multiple engineering domains necessary for the IoT architect
  • Implement best practices to ensure reliability, scalability, and security in your IoT infrastructure

If you are new to IoT or want to get a broad view of it, this is the book. Perhaps it is the most complete practical book I read about the theme since I got engaged with M2M in 2008.The edge computing is a natural case in IoT, but Perry inserted the theme graciously. It is a must-have book.

The author does an excellent job breaking down the necessary components that are relevant to the IoT industry. Could an architect, engineer or technical manager get this information from the web? Yes, but the author saves your valuable time by covering a large breadth of technical knowledge at just the right (to me) detail needed to make decisions. An excellent balance of topics covered and just the right detail.My only nit-pick are the graphic illustrations. They are somewhat low quality and inconsistent, but they are useful to gaining understanding of the specific topics.Overall, as a 30+ year computer engineer, manager, director and VP, I highly recommend this book and look forward to future updates.David Paul

The IoT space is varied and complex. The problems to be solved span many different technology domains. Some examples this book highlights include: tiny microprocessors transmitting temperature data, while only sipping the smallest amount of power, all the way up to complex visions systems that consume vast amounts of data and power.Mr. Lea does a great job of breaking down each of the IoT technology domains into separate chapters. Each chapter gives a good high-level summary, but also allows the reader to dive deep into the topic to understand the history and operation of the subject. I have worked 20+ years in embedded systems and I currently design 802.11 Wi-Fi based products, and I learned quite a few new things when reading up on "IEEE802.11 protocols and WLAN" in chapter 6. So whether you are new to IoT or a seasoned professional, you will learn something new in this book.This is truly a complete guide and is a good overall reference for computer architecture as well as IoT. This is one of those books that every developer, architect and CTO should keep within arm's reach.

Where can I send feedback about an Early Access title? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

If you have any feedback about the product you're reading, or Early Access in general, then please fill out a contact form here and we'll make sure the feedback gets to the right team. 

Can I download the code files for Early Access titles? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We try to ensure that all books in Early Access have code available to use, download, and fork on GitHub. This helps us be more agile in the development of the book, and helps keep the often changing code base of new versions and new technologies as up to date as possible. Unfortunately, however, there will be rare cases when it is not possible for us to have downloadable code samples available until publication.

When we publish the book, the code files will also be available to download from the Packt website.

How accurate is the publication date? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The publication date is as accurate as we can be at any point in the project. Unfortunately, delays can happen. Often those delays are out of our control, such as changes to the technology code base or delays in the tech release. We do our best to give you an accurate estimate of the publication date at any given time, and as more chapters are delivered, the more accurate the delivery date will become.

How will I know when new chapters are ready? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We'll let you know every time there has been an update to a course that you've bought in Early Access. You'll get an email to let you know there has been a new chapter, or a change to a previous chapter. The new chapters are automatically added to your account, so you can also check back there any time you're ready and download or read them online.

I am a Packt subscriber, do I get Early Access? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Yes, all Early Access content is fully available through your subscription. You will need to have a paid for or active trial subscription in order to access all titles.

How do I buy Early Access content? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Early Access is a way of us getting our content to you quicker, but the method of buying the Early Access course is still the same. Just find the course you want to buy, go through the check-out steps, and you’ll get a confirmation email from us with information and a link to the relevant Early Access courses.

What is Early Access? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Keeping up to date with the latest technology is difficult; new versions, new frameworks, new techniques. This feature gives you a head-start to our content, as it's being created. With Early Access you'll receive each chapter as it's written, and get regular updates throughout the product's development, as well as the final course as soon as it's ready.We created Early Access as a means of giving you the information you need, as soon as it's available. As we go through the process of developing a course, 99% of it can be ready but we can't publish until that last 1% falls in to place. Early Access helps to unlock the potential of our content early, to help you start your learning when you need it most. You not only get access to every chapter as it's delivered, edited, and updated, but you'll also get the finalized, DRM-free product to download in any format you want when it's published. As a member of Packt, you'll also be eligible for our exclusive offers, including a free course every day, and discounts on new and popular titles.
