May rhymes with... IoT Day!

What will you be doing in May? For me, the answer is flying to California, meeting with people and talking about open source and open standards for building IoT solutions. I can't wait!

The Eclipse IoT Day taking place May 13, 2019, is co-located with IoT World 2019 - the world’s biggest IoT event! The IoT Day is organized by the Eclipse Foundation and Eclipse IoT Working Group, in collaboration with the IoT World 2019 team. There, you will learn from world-class industry experts how open source software can help you build devices, edge nodes, and IoT cloud platforms. Check out the speakers and their talks and register today!

I will have the privilege to welcome the attendees and open the program. My talk, titled Eclipse IoT - State of the Union will enable me to share with you what happened in the Eclipse IoT Ecosystem in the last year and what is the Foundation's roadmap for the future. You will learn about major project releases; discover new projects such as ioFog, fog05 and Sparkplug; hear about our new and upcoming working groups.I hope to see you there!

Eclipse IDE for Embedded Developers Now Runs on the Raspberry Pi!

The Eclipse IDE is the project that started it all for the Eclipse Foundation . From the beginning, Eclipse IDE was meant to run on multiple platforms; it now supports Linux, Mac OS and Microsoft Windows. Since it is written in Java, it also supports multiple processor architectures. However, support for 32-bit architectures has been dropped in version 2018-12. This meant recent versions of the IDE would not run on the Raspberry Pi anymore. The introduction of the Raspberry Pi 4 in June 2019 gave hope to Eclipse on Pi fans. With its 64-bit quad core ARM Cortex-A72, the Pi 4 was a good hardware platform to work with. It became even more attractive in May 2020, with the introduction of the 8Gb variant. The Eclipse community took notice of those developments. Version 2020-09 of Eclipse IDE now ships with experimental support for 64-bit ARM (aarch64) on Linux.  Those developments mean embedded and IoT developers can now work on the Raspberry Pi 4 by installing the plugins provided by ...

Eclipse ThreadX: Charting our course for 2025

On November 21, 2023, Microsoft announced that it was contributing Azure RTOS to the Eclipse Foundation, which gave birth to the Eclipse ThreadX project . Since then, the project team and Eclipse Foundation staff have been working tirelessly behind the scenes to transition ThreadX to a true community-driven open source project and ensure its continued certification for safety-critical applications. In this short post, I will review the major milestones of that first year and share what to expect from the team in 2025. ThreadX v6.4.1 On February 28, 2024, the ThreadX project released version 6.4.1 of ThreadX and its companion modules. This release, the first made under the Eclipse Foundation development process, completed the transition of ThreadX to open source. From a technical standpoint, there were no changes from the prior 6.4.0 release. And yet, v6.4.1 represents a significant milestone. The Eclipse Foundation intends to certify ThreadX v6.4.1 for safety-critical applications. Yo...

A Few Embedded and IoT Sessions Worth Your Time at OCX 2024

2024 marks the 20th anniversary of the Eclipse Foundation . It also represents a brand-new start for our annual flagship conference. Its new name, Open Community Experience (OCX), emphasises our community's place in the broader open source ecosystem. The event will take place in Mainz, Germany, on October 22-24, 2024. OCX, as EclipseCon before, features several distinct tracks. One of them is dedicated to Embedded, IoT, and Edge Computing topics. If you look at the conference’s agenda , you will find them by activating the “OCX Tracks” filter. Click this link to access a pre-filtered version of the agenda. Not sure about which sessions to catch? See below the top five sessions I hope to attend. Of course, there are many other great ones, so please browse the full agenda. * How IoT can save a life - A real-world example October 23, 2024 11:30 AM-12:15 PM CET I love talks that showcase concretely how technology can make the world better.
