CeBIT 2016 talk on "IoT Edge Intelligence - The need for new software development approaches". In order to bridge the 'IoT skills gap' or solve the 'IT vs OT' divide, the IoT market needs to enable traditional IT developers to move into the OT (operational technology) world. In the OT world, devices, gateways and machines run embedded software on proprietary operating systems, using unfamiliar communications protocols in resource constraint environments. To enable a large community of developers to build intelligent IoT edge applications, abstraction from these domain specific technologies and complexities is required. Bitreactive offers visual developer tooling to highly simplify the application development on devices and the way edge devices integrate to IoT sensors, cloud services, analytics, visualization services etc. (Some technologies supported: MQTT, AMQP, BLE, Zigbee, OPC-UA, Paho, Californium, Kura, Coap, JSON-RPC, LoRA, Bluetooth, IBM Bluemix, IBM IoT Foundation, Microsoft Azure, AWS, Oracle IoT Cloud Service, GE Predix, GE Predix machine, Xively, Solair, Geofencing, Modbus, GPIO, RaspberryPI, XMPP, Eurotech Reliagate, Eurotech ESF, PLC, SCADA, DELL 5000, Intel IoT gateway, Multitech conduit, Java SE, openJDK, OSGi, Kura, Eclipse IoT, Embedded Java, Oauth 2.0, alternative to Node Red)
