IBM spoke at the April 2016 CATCH Networking Lunch about their free Internet of Things cloud based service.
Peter Smith from IBM
was the keynote speaker. Peter
introduced the network to an Internet of Things service called Bluemix. Access to this service is being given to
CATCH members for free for non-commercial use.
It is a programming tool that can be used to build, run, deploy and
manage applications in the cloud to control, interact and take advantage of
data and analytics from Internet of Things connected devices and sensors. Bluemix can also be used to access the IBM
Watson AI system.
CATCH have been given
an initial 100 licenses for Bluemix. Each license will allow one person - eg
student, researcher, academic - to access Bluemix and create apps for
non-commercial use. All CATCH academic
members are eligible to access these licenses and more can be obtained from
IBM. Examples of how these licenses
could be used include: teaching modules, student research projects, PhD
research projects etc, Please contact Simon Butler if you would like to use
these licenses.
CATCH intends to
purchase an Internet of Things kit to install in the Home Lab that researchers
and students will be able to control and interact with via the Bluemix
system. Please contact Simon Butler for
more information.
