Single Board Computer

●
Single-board computer (SBC) is a complete computer built on a
single circuit board, with microprocessor(s), memory,
input/output (I/O) and other features required of a functional
computer.
●
Made as demonstration or development systems, for educational
systems, or for use as embedded computer controllers.
 WAMP – Auto Bahn
●
WAMP is a WebSocket subprotocol registered at IANA,specified to offer
routed RPC and PubSub.
●
Its design goal is to provide an open standard for soft real-time message
exchange between application components and ease the creation of loosely
coupled architectures based on microservices.
●
WAMP requires a reliable, ordered, full-duplex message channel as a
transport layer, and by default uses Websocket.
 WAMP – Auto Bahn
WAMP – Web Application Message Protocol
Is a sub-protocol of Webcocket whcih provides publish-subscribe and
remote procedure call (RPC) messaging patterns.
Key components of WAMP:-
Transport:- is the chanel that connects two peers. WAMP uses Websocket
as the channel by default.
Session:- is a conversation between two peers that runs over a transport
Client:- clients are the peers that can have one or more
roles In WAMP client can be either
Publisher:- publishes the events
Subscriber:- subscribes to the topic and receives the events including
the payload.
In RPC client can be either
Caller:- issues calls to the remote procedures
Callee:- executes the procedures and returns the result back

The WAMP transport used is Websocket.
●
First the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) connection will be
●
established. Transport Layer Security (TLS) connection will be established.
●
Websocket connection setup request will take

place Response accepting the request will be done
●
Then the WAMP session lifetime will be

established Simillarly, multiple sessions will takes
●
place.
Once the communication is over Websocket connection close request will
be sent

Then the response for the closing websocket will be sent

Finally, TLS connection will be
close And TCP connection will be

 Django
●
Django is a free and open-source web framework, written in Python,
which follows the model-view-template architectural pattern. It is
maintained by the Django Software Foundation.
●
 Django – Architecture
Django is a MTV framework:- Model – Template – View based architecture
●
M stands for “Model,” the data access layer. This layer contains
anything and everything about the data: how to access it, how to validate
it, which behaviors it has, and the relationships between the data. Acts as a
definition of some stored data.
●
T stands for “Template,” the presentation layer. This layer
contains presentation-related decisions: how something should be displayed
on a Web page or other type of document. In typical Django web
application is simply HTML pages with few extra placeholders.
●
V stands for “View,” the business logic layer. This layer contains the
logic
that accesses the model and defers to the appropriate template(s). You
can think of it as the bridge between models and templates. The view
ties the model to the template.
 Django – Configuring Database
●
Database is a structured set of data held in a computer, especially one that
is accessible in various ways.
●
Django provides a unified API for database backends, giving the freedom
to choose the database.
●
It supports various relational database engines including
MySQL,
● PostgreSQL, Oracle and SOLite3.
Also support for non-relattional databases such as MongoDB using
● additional engines.
Following code shows the installation and set of databases.

 AWS - EC2
●
Amazon EC2:- Amazon Elastic Compute
Cloud
●
Amazon EC2 is an Infrastucture-as-a Service (IaaS) provided by
●
Amazon. It delivers scalable, pay-as-you-go compute capacity in the
●
cloud.
It provides computing capacity in the form of virtual machines that
●
are launched in Amazon’s cloud.
EC2 can be used for several purpose for IoT such as IoT developers
can deploy IoT applications(developed under Django), setup IoT
●
platforms with REST web services.
EC2 provides users with control over the geographical location of
instances that allows for latency optimization and high levels of redundancy.
 AWS - Amazon AutoScaling
●
Amazon AutoScaling:- Automatically Scale EC2
Instances
●
Allows automatically scalling Amazon EC2 capacity up or down according
to user defined conditions.
●
Can also be used for auto scaling IoT applications and IoT
platforms deployed on Amazon EC2.
●
