Digi-Key at embedded world 2023 with Golioth

Goliath is a straightforward commercial IoT development platform built for scale. It is an instant cloud for the hardware required for IoT, capable of speeding up development and increasing the changes that your pilots will be put into production with a full featured platform of firmware, services and cloud management.

“We’ve been helping people connect their hardware to the internet,” explains Chris Gammell.

“We’re doing IoT at a microcontroller level in a really unique way, and that made me excited to join up,” says Mike Szczys.

The IoT is a centre collecting data and sending it back. It gets complicated when you move that idea to 100, 1,000 or 10,000 devices. You can begin to realise some interesting edge cases, especially when it comes to control and upgrading those devices.

Gammel explains: “If you’re a company starting out building something like that, you shouldn’t have to solve the same problems over and over again. You should specialise in what your company does best and use a company like Golioth to facilitate that,”

Golioth helps companies to avoid hiring the first two or three cloud engineers, eliminating the need to build web infrastructure as it is already built for you.

At embedded world 2023, Golioth is showcasing its demos of Golioth that it has built using its Golioth Zephyr SDK.

Golioth’s reference designs make it easier to understand how it can help companies build out their tech stack.

• The IoT Trashcan Monitor shows how easy it can be to pull sensor data back to the cloud for processing and visualisation.
• The IoT Greenhouse Controller adds independent actions to the mix. The controller can automatically take action based on sensor thresholds you set using the Golioth Settings Service, or your user application (web or phone app, etc.) can use manual control turn on the ventilation or grow lights you install with your system.
