Whitepaper - How to build a mutil-technology scalable IoT Connectivity Platform?Actility
In this paper, we investigate the challenges facing service providers and enterprises for deploying and monetizing LPWAN solution.
We show in this paper that the traditional M2M approach might not be cost-effective for the needs of LPWAN IoT deployments due to dramatically lower ARPU requirements of IoT compared to traditional M2M. We also examine both cellular IoT (NB-IoT or Cat-NB1, Cat-M1, Cat-1) and LoRaWAN, with the objective to demonstrate the complementary aspects of the two technologies. We show how operators extend existing M2M use cases and swap 2G using cellular IoT, and in addition tap into the new unlicensed IoT market space using LoRaWAN. Interestingly, LoRaWAN is a natural over-the-top play for cellular IoT operators, as cellular IoT is an ideal backhaul technology for unlicensed LPWAN concentrators.
Properly matching a connectivity solution to a use case is a complex multidimensional problem requiring analysis of several factors including battery lifetime, coverage, throughput, latency, total cost of ownership (TCO), amongst other factors. We discuss these factors and attempt to build a technology selection chart, and then build a business case for multi-technology IoT platform that leverages both LoRaWAN and Cellular IoT to serve the needs of all IoT use cases. We also provide insights on the service provider strategy for LPWAN deployment with examples from Tier-1 MNOs such as SK Telecom and Orange.
Finally, we conclude the paper with overview of ThingPark Wireless as a multi-technology platform that addresses the challenges for both LoRaWAN and Cellular IoT deployments.

Whitepaper - LoraWAN and Cellular IoT (NB-IoT, LTE-M): How do they complement...Actility
Ericsson’s Mobility Report [3] forecasts that by 2022 more than seventeen billion IoT devices will be connected by wireless communication technologies. The Internet of Things (IoT) market targeting low power, low cost and low-data rate devices capable of communicating over a wide area network -the LPWAN market- is growing very rapidly.
In recent years, there have been significant technological developments in wireless IoT connectivity, with multiple technologies sometimes competing and often responding to different IoT use case requirements. Hence, choosing the right mix of connectivity solutions requires careful consideration. In this paper, we examine both cellular IoT (NB-IoT, Cat-M1) and LoRaWAN, and demonstrate that the two technologies are complementary.
We show how operators extend existing M2M use cases and swap 2G using cellular IoT, and in addition tap into the new unlicensed IoT market space using LoRaWAN. Interestingly, LoRaWAN is a natural over-the-top play for cellular IoT operators, as cellular IoT is an ideal backhaul technology for unlicensed LPWAN concentrators.

we examine both Mobile IoT (NB-IoT, Cat-M1, Cat-1) and LoRaWAN, with the objective to demonstrate the complementary aspects of the two technologies. We show how operators tap into unlicensed IoT market space using LoRaWAN and complement it with licensed Mobile IoT.
No one doubts that the licensed LPWANs will open up new business opportunities. But how can customers be taken beyond the POC phase when 75% of IoT projects fail? How can new revenue streams be integrated into existing infrastructure without risk?
Learn how to tame IoT complexity with a vendor structure simpler than you thought possible in order to lower your risk, cost, and time-to-market and start making revenue with IoT.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!
Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.
Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:

In addition to the players you can see on this slide, Actility also provides numerous enterprise networks
So why are we here this afternoon ?
Actility has been in the ioT business for more then 5 years and during this time, we have seen countless use cases.
However, the key use cases occurred in Smart cities, Utilities, Industries, Logistics and Agriculture
Particularly in Smart cities, we have seen many use cases around Street light management, waste management and street light monitoring and control
But don’t take our word for it.
Several market studies are clearly showing Smart Cities is one of the leading verticals in IoT, for exemple on this one, from IoT Analytics, Smart cities stands for close de ¼ of all IoT projects.
So what challenges are Cities facing when it comes to IoT projects ?
IoT has been here for several years now and Cities already started experimenting with it.
However, when I am looking to the different former deployments, the first thing that comes to my mind is SILOS
Here is a basic (emphasis on basic) architecture of city deployments.
I am mentionning use cases such as….. Because these are the deployments we are seeing the most, of course there are others that are not on the slide.
Every use case is USUAlly using a different connectivity technology.
Hi, I‘m Klemen Logar, sales director at Solvera Lynx.
The activity of BTC, d.d. is based on three main business pillars: real estate leasing, integrated real estate management, and logistics. Today, BTC City is not only the largest shopping mall in Slovenia but is becoming an increasingly important business and leisure center with a wide selection of sport, entertainment and cultural activities, as well as an area of creative and business oriented thinking.
The BTC decided to run an energy management project with the purpose of implementing advanced energy management solutions in order to monitor and analyze real-time energy consumption while at the same time, supporting the implementation of the ISO 50001 standard. As such, BTC has become one of the first companies in Slovenia to implement the ISO 50001 standard.

SPAR and INTERSPAR are centrally supplied from their own energy distribution center in Ljubljana. Technologically equipped warehouses and logistic centers enable the daily supply of goods to all SPAR and INTERSPAR storefronts across Slovenia.
Primary electricity consumers: refrigeration technologies, HVAC, lightning.
Primary natural gas consumer: Backery
The company decided to run an energy management project with the purpose of implementing a comprehensive energy management solution in order to:
Monitor and analyze real-time energy consumption
Define and analyze key energy efficiency indicators
Implement an energy accounting system
Energy consumption monitoring: electricity, heat, natural gas, water
Integration with SCADA system
Energy performance analysis through the monitoring of key energy performance indicators: targeting energy consumption quantities and costs; alarm in case of consumption or cost deviations
Energy accounting: energy consumption benchmarking, analyses of energy costs, energy accounting system implementation
Monitoring CO2 emissions
Electricity consumption reduction (by optimized distribution of refrigeration technologies)
Reduction of energy losses caused by water leakages
Reduction of water consumption by leakage detection
Optimization of electricity consumption during the summer (air conditioning) and heat consumption in the winter (heating)
High energy consumption: high energy consumption due to 24hour operation (lighting, heating, air condition), wide usage of cooling and heating technologies, the consumption of a large amount of natural gas for heating and an enormous consumption of hot water;
High thermal and water losses;
Lack of unified and efficient energy management system which covers all the facilities and providing energy consumption analyses, comparison and benchmarking between several buildings.
Tailor-made monitoring and customization of the software platform for targeted analysis of energy consumption, especially in cooling and heating technologies: total heated water consumption, consumption of heated water from solar collectors, consumption of heated water, energy consumption of boilers, temperature monitoring of sanitarian water;• Energy efficiency analysis: definition of key energy efficiency performance indicators;• Energy performance and targeting: energy consumption, cost targeting and alarm in case of consumption or cost deviations;• Energy accounting: energy consumption benchmarking and advanced analysis of energy costs.
