Johan | Motivation to migrate to cloud
| ||
Rob Johan | It should be easy to move the applications on cloud. May be licenses issues to be resolved on windows. Network connection should be simple to setup. Campbell data loggers are using a protocol on top of TCP and the logger opens a connection to a windows server using this protocol. This is accessible with URL and specific port number. Router provides connections to data logger and server downloading data. Routing services can be moved on awsAWS. Rob. Resiliance discussion. In AWS there is a need to plan for failure. Proposing to implement not only a single server, but a more complex structure and keep the SQL database on an external more resilient solution. Johan. Not so critical to need the resiliency level proposed. Mauritz. It is possible to use other DBMS. | ||
Enrico | what What about MQP? Rob. there There is sftp service with high resilience. Rob. IoT solution. There are streaming based of data collection. Enrico. We are interested on in MQP solutions. Rob. There is Amazon MQ. A range of service to explore. Mauritz. It would be possible to get data using MQTT directly from loggers. |
