33. What was the hill?
• “As Bob, I want to deploy MessageSight to my cloud and get it running in 30 minutes”
• “As Bob, I want to deploy MessageSight to my cloud and get it running in 30 minutes”
– Bob - our MessageSight administrator, in charge of installing and
configuring MessageSight
• “As Bob, I want to deploy MessageSight to my cloud and get it running in 30 minutes”
– MessageSight – I want to get the rapid, bidirectional, secure,
reliable mobile and sensor connectivity to my enterprise
systems
• “As Bob, I want to deploy MessageSight to my cloud and get it running in 30 minutes”
– Cloud – public or private cloud infrastructure
• “As Bob, I want to deploy MessageSight to my cloud and get it running in 30
minutes”
– Let’s get on with it!

40. When to choose Cloud?
• IBM MessageSight and IBM Internet of Things Foundation share many of the same
use cases
– Providing connectivity to devices
• When considering which to use, look at the following aspects:
• I need to have tight control over
security
• I want to manage my own IT
infrastructure
• I want to host the system in my
Datacenter
• I have (regulatory) restrictions on
where my data can live
• I want guaranteed performance
(dedicated hardware)
• I want to manage my initial
investment as CapEx
• I want someone else to manage the IT
infrastructure
• I just want to get going quickly
• IT is not part of my core business
strength
• I want someone else to worry about
scaling to meet demand
• My data can live anywhere
• I want to manage my investment as
OpEx (Rental)

41. What was the hill?
• “I need to gather data from non-MQTT devices so that I can get new
insights by connecting things that were never connected before”
• “I need to gather data from non-MQTT devices so that I can
get new insights by connecting things that were never connected before”
– Legacy sensors which cannot change to MQTT
– Industry specific protocols

42. What did we make?
• A protocol plug-in point in MessageSight
• Gives the ability for IBM and trusted third-parties to extend the protocols supported by the
appliance
• There is a plug-in protocol SDK to develop plug-ins
– Protocols must be written in Java
• Plug-ins run in an isolated environment to ensure robustness
• The plug-in sends and receives data through MessageSight transport
component
• The plug-in uses a messaging interface into the MessageSight engine
• The common engine ensures any-to-any communication between protocols
• Integrated into MessageSight configuration and security models
• Plugins do not get direct network access
– Sample HTTP style plugin
• Intended for:
– Legacy sensors which cannot be changed to MQTT
– Industry-specific protocols
– Co-existence with initial versions of IoT deployments

45. Additional messaging capabilities: Expiry and Discard
• Administrative control of maximum message
time-to-live
– Automatic expiration of messages beyond
configured time, even with MQTT
• Choose the maximum messages behavior
– When a subscriber cannot keep up
IBM CONFIDENTIAL
• Reject new messages
• Discard old messages

46. MQTT Shared Subscriptions
• When you are treating an MQTT topic as an inbox of work to complete
– You want to distribute the work between multiple subscribers
– You want redundancy so that if one subscriber goes down, the others continue
to process the work
/inbox/todo
Client 1
Client 2
Client 3

47. Enhanced monitoring - SNMP
You can now use standard monitoring tooling to monitor the appliance
through SNMP.

48. Other updates
– Increased capacity
• More subscriptions, more messages
– Simplified high-availability configuration
– Translation
• Chinese (traditional and simplified), Japanese, German and French
