Integration of Internet of Things, Cloud Computing and Artificial Intelligence.

This tutorial will teach you how to connect an Android device to the cloud and develop analytics models to analyse sensor data. By the end of this tutorial you should be able to set up your own IoT hub for streaming, storing and processing device data, besides becoming familiar with

• Node-RED
• IBM Cloud
• MQTT protocol
• IBM Watson Studio
• Cloundant database
• Continuous Delivery
• Cloud Object Storage
• IBM Watson IoT Platform
• Application Starter Kits
• Cloud Foundry applications

• Android smartphone
• Internet connection

Congratulations, you have now built your own IoT hub for streaming, storing and analysing sensor data entirely on the cloud! If you want to keep learning about IoT, take a look at the link below where you can learn how to do something similar to what you just did but replacing your Android device by a single-board IoT device.
