Again on IoT and Connected Cars (follow on Medium.com)

One of my preferred subject is Internet of Things. I love it, mainly because it is the link between the Digital and the Physical world, and I started working with Computers (well, a long way ago) in the final year of my Physics studies, where one of the goal of my thesis was to control a laser, a set of sensors and actuators with a computer (Oh, you wouldn’t believe but it was an Intel 80286, and it was enough).

Another reason is that I really see Internet of Things as a paradigm to build solutions with the goal of improving the quality of life. Simply try to image what in the near future could be done: better and smarter cities, buildings, more safety, a better and more comfortable living environment and so on.

Then, as part of my job (I work for Oracle as a Cloud Architect) I have, from time to time, to contribute to demos to show how our Cloud technologies can be used to develop complete solutions.

One great colleague, F. Marini, proposed me to implement in our new Rome offices a nice demo, based on Anki Overdrive. We have demonstrated it many times (“tournee” is still going on) and it is a great way to show something nice to see, cool, that implements a complete, end-to-end solution based on Oracle IoT Cloud Service and a set of (more than 10) Oracle PaaS and SaaS services.
