Hi HN,We're excited to introduce Shifu, a platform that makes IoT development easy and intuitive. We know that traditional multi-device interaction can be complex and time-consuming, because you need to manually integrate all those heterogeneous devices, which is why we've worked hard to create a platform that brings app-like simplicity to the process.Our platform is cloud-native, extending the...

Public cloud providers boast complete set of features. If you are looking for an end-to-end solution, you should go to public cloud providers. However, there are a few drawbacks.

Vendor lock-in. We all know it's pretty hard to migrate from one public cloud to another. ForS example, Google Cloud will shutter its IoT Core service in 2023. High cost. Given the big data & massive scale nature of IoT, running complete solutions on public clouds can be very costly.

yes！exactly

A common practice is to use Shifu to convert device messages to MQTT messages, and utilize brokers like EMQ to distribute MQTT messages to other applications.

Basically the common practice of existing IoT platforms is to vertically integrating http and mqtt protocols, etc. while our idea is to horizontally break the barrier between different protocols, enabling cross-industry control of devices and objects at the same time.

Ask HN: Can anyone share cases study of successful SaaS getting into the market?

Hi,The background is we are a startup working on IoT development framework and we've just started to launch our product. The result of current advertising and promotion in the North American market is not up to much so far.So anyone can recommend some worth-learning cases of SaaS products getting into North American market? (Actually we are doing PaaS stuff but considering SaaS is more common...
