How to Build an IoT Sensor Analytics using Docker, Redis and Grafana #RedisDeveloper

Application developers look to Redis and RedisTimeSeries to work with real-time internet of things (IoT) sensor data—here’s how to make it work. Imagine you’re an air-conditioner manufacturing company that sells millions of smart AC units to consumers. You are building a centralized, smart climate control system that collects sensor data about a house’s temperature, pressure, and humidity and sends it to a central location for an efficiency analysis to help end users trim their electricity bills. This blog post will show a simplified version of such a use case to demonstrate how it all works—so you can understand how to manage a wide variety of real-time IoT sensor data in Redis. Here’s what we used: - A BME680 environmental sensor to simulate a smart air conditioner and send data to Redis - The RedisTimeSeries module to add time-series capabilities to Redis and store the data in time-series format - Grafana with Redis Data Source to create graphs for usage analysis Further Reading: https://redis.com/blog/how-to-manage-real-time-iot-sensor-data-in-redis/ Follow us over Twitter: - https://twitter.com/redisdeveloper - https://twitter.com/collabnix
