Discovering the Temboo platform
Temboo is a fully fledged online IoT platform that links your IoT projects to numerous other online platforms for instant notifications, data logging, and control purposes. You can use Temboo with many open-source hardware IoT platforms. In this chapter, we will be looking at using Temboo with the Arduino platform, and the ESP8266. Note that Temboo is not free, but you can make several requests to the service with their free plan.
There are many functions of the Temboo platform that come in handy in IoT projects. Some of them include the following:
Code generation: The platform allows you to select the device and sensors you want to use and automatically generates code that you can use to achieve your desired task
Sensor data monitoring: You are able to monitor your sensors using graphical means and keep track of your IoT systems
Cloud controls: The platform provides an interface that you can use to control your actuators with just one click
Temboo has a comprehensive...
