Golioth

Today is a new @golioth.io Pipelines data destination!

The holidays are a great time to do some personal development (hacking) projects. Dylan and @szczys.bsky.social rebuilt a meme machine on top of @adafruit.com's MagTag board Read more about the project and view the full video here: blog.golioth.io/a-physical-m...

Excited for hosted PKI integrations to land on @golioth.io today! We're eliminating the complexity in establishing robust PKI for your fleet, and making it easy to build automatic certificate rotation into your firmware, regardless of the underlying infrastructure. blog.golioth.io/introducing-...

Hackday at @golioth.io and @szczys.bsky.social is spreading propaganda that I endorse.

@golioth.io ⚡️ @edgeimpulse.com ⚡️ @nordicsemi.com Working on a fun project with @szczys.bsky.social this weekend combining Edge Impulse gesture recognition models with Golioth Bluetooth connectivity, running on an nRF52840 connected to the Tikk board (by @chrisgammell.bsky.social) for LEDs and IMU!

We just released v0.2.0 of signy, our signed URLs library for embedded devices! This release includes support for ESP-IDF, which enables some new interesting use cases, such as leveraging the esp_http_ota component for OTA firmware updates from @golioth.io. blog.golioth.io/signed-urls-...

Today we are launching support for device signed URLs on @golioth.io! Almost everyone uses signed URLs on a daily basis to access private content on CDNs, but they can also be useful in the context of complex multi-protocol embedded devices. Read more: blog.golioth.io/signed-urls-...

Awesome Bluetooth board that can be controlled from anywhere via @golioth.io! Hardware and firmware courtesy of @chrisgammell.bsky.social and @szczys.bsky.social — perfect little digital signage for the office.

We just moved #Bluetooth support on @golioth.io to open beta! That means anyone with a Golioth account can now use device management, data routing, and application services with BLE devices. Check out our new Golioth Connectivity documentation to get started! docs.golioth.io/connectivity...

tinymcp works by translating MCP client JSON-RPC tool calls into @golioth.io LightDB State and device RPC API calls. Try it out with the blink example on a @nordicsemi.com nRF9160. github.com/golioth/tiny...

**THE ABSOLUTE SIMPLEST WAY TO UPLOAD IMAGES FROM A MICROCONTROLLER TO THE CLOUD** We are partnering with the @openmv.io team to add native @golioth.io support for their camera modules. I just received the new AE3 and was able to get image upload to an S3 bucket working in under 5 minutes!

It was a big week for our friends @memfault.com and @nordicsemi.com! On a slightly smaller note, we also introduced a new feature in our @golioth.io Pipelines Memfault data destination to support user-managed device serial numbers. It only requires changing one line of YAML in existing Pipelines.

Last week I demoed @golioth.io to a customer using a device that was running firmware I had never seen before...

We just launched Pipeline Recommendations on @golioth.io! Pipeline Recommendations analyze streaming metadata to automatically generate new pipelines for routing device data. This ensures that you aren’t missing out on data, and works as a powerful discovery tool when on-boarding legacy devices.

AWS announced that they are ending support for three IoT services, becoming the latest cloud provider to struggle with enabling connected device products. These heterogeneous systems require a robust integration layer, which is the approach we have taken in building @golioth.io.

Can we add cellular support to a popular GPS watch? We just wrapped up our quarterly @golioth.io hack day, and I spent mine adding cellular to a Garmin watch using the @nordicsemi.com nRF52840 and nRF9160. In just a few hours, I was able to livestream my location data to any cloud service.

DeepSeek-R1-0528 has once again set the benchmark for open weights models. Using @basetenco.bsky.social and @golioth.io Pipelines, we can easily swap out a proprietary OpenAI model for R1 by changing just a few lines of YAML. I grabbed an ESP32-S3 based device to quickly try it out!

Yesterday @anthropic.com released Claude 4 and a number of new API capabilities. The Files API allows for uploading images, then referencing them by ID in prompts. I decided to grab my @openmv.io Cam RT1062 and see how quickly I could start using Claude 4 with a microcontroller via @golioth.io.

You can check out the @golioth.io Location service here: docs.golioth.io/application-...

With cellular, Wi-Fi, and BLE support, the @nordicsemi.com Thingy:91 X is the perfect prototyping platform for testing @golioth.io's network-based positioning service. I took it out for a run on Duke University's campus to see just how accurate Golioth Location is... spoiler: no GNSS, no problem!

I've got a new office / studio and this is the first Friday I've had an opportunity to record some new content. Running through some examples of mixing local inference on the Qualcomm RB3 Gen 2 Vision Dev Kit with cloud inference via @golioth.io's AI platform integrations!

Because we built @golioth.io's #Bluetooth support to be compatible with all existing platform services, the AI integrations we released nearly a year ago now allow any BLE device to leverage cloud inference capabilities.

some exciting updates coming from @golioth.io this week.

We chose the @nordicsemi.com Thingy:91 X for our reference gateway implementation when designing the @golioth.io BLE Private Access program. Its support for Wi-Fi, cellular, and BLE makes it a great prototyping and development platform for customers building a wide variety of products.

There are many products that leverage BLE, and getting data from a device to the cloud can look different depending on the type of gateway that acts as the intermediary. Learn more about how we are solving this at @golioth.io in this short demo of a @nordicsemi.com nRF52840 and a mobile app gateway!

AI is writing code, open-source tools are on the rise, and embedded developers are rethinking how much of their firmware they will actually write. We’re digging into the shift with @golioth.io in the next episode of Coredump → Tuesday, April 29 at 8 AM PT | 11 AM ET go.memfault.com/coredump-07-...

Small thing that I love about the new device networks experience in the @golioth.io console: devices that have communicated via a gateway more recently are shown as "hot" (warmer color, closer proximity to the gateway) relative to other devices.

**The Taxonomy of Connected Device Networks** Following @golioth.io's announcement of support for #Bluetooth devices, I wrote about the different types of connected device networks and how we're building a platform that is flexible enough to support them all. blog.golioth.io/the-taxonomy...

one of the most fun things about @golioth.io coworkers taking demos to conferences is that we get to "watch" them remotely. feat. @jonathanberi.com sending temperature readings over Bluetooth from Embedded World in Nuremberg.

I sat down with @golioth.io's CEO, Johnathan Beri, today to talk about what you can do with Cloud connectivity with the OpenMV N6 and AE3. youtu.be/aPGDr0zoWdU?...

How about seamlessly connecting Bluetooth devices directly to the Cloud? That's what Golioth can now do. youtu.be/l8alaAGk2oM Jonathan Beri, founder and CEO, joined me on a live interview during the last @iotstars event at #EW25 to share some insights into this new capability of the IoT platform.

We're collaborating with @openmv.io to bring cloud management for their new AI cameras. 🎉 The N6 & AE3 run YOLO at 30+ FPS on batteries lasting for years. Our integration will enable fleet management, data routing & OTA updates. www.kickstarter.com/projects/ope...

We are still big proponents of Thread, and one of the biggest benefits is each end/leaf node in a Thread network having an IP address. Plus the added benefits of meshing, which can extend range and enable even more resilient networks. Learn More: blog.golioth.io/connecting-e...

Stopping by DesignCon - anyone around today?

With @jonathanberi.com heading to CES this week, we wanted to see how quickly we could build a tracker that let us follow him around the conference. Using the @nordicsemi.com Thingy:91 X, @supabase.com, and @golioth.io Location, we were able to do it in a few hours. blog.golioth.io/tracking-our...

Alan Carlson, VP of Operations at Slabsure, explains how Slabsure worked with Glassboard, and Golioth to monitor structures without having physical access, and without depending on grid power or customer connectivity. golioth.io/case-studies...

I think I took a different route, but also got a thingy91x talking to Golioth!

a little more @nordicsemi.com x @golioth.io hacking to wrap up the evening.

Happy Friday! Look what just dropped in the @golioth.io console 👀
