macchina.io Update

Development of macchina.io is progressing nicely and we’re approaching the first release. macchina.io is now on GitHub and today the new website for macchina.io has been launched.


Sierra Developer Day Video and macchina.io Update

Over at the Sierra Wireless Developer Blog the nice folks at Sierra Wireless have posted a video of me giving a demo of early macchina.io (back still known as the IoT Framework) at the Sierra Wireless Developer Day 2014 in Paris last June. A lot has happened since then. Macchina.io has made great progress and […]


Prevues of Coming Attractions: Macchina.io

Macchina.io is the new name for our IoT Framework which we’ve announced some time ago. A few weeks ago, at the Sierra Wireless Developer Day in Paris, we presented a demo of the current state of the project. Apart from our existing C++ toolkits — the POCO C++ Libraries at the core, the Open Service […]

New White Paper: Browser-based Secure Remote 
 Access for the Internet of Things

Secure remote access to the built-in web server of a device is one of the fundamental building blocks for the Internet of Things. my-devices.net enables easy and secure remote access, even if the device is located behind a NAT router or a firewall and does not have a public IP address. Read our new white […]

my-devices.net and Heartbleed

On April 7, a team of security researchers found a critical bug in some versions of OpenSSL that allow an attacker to read random memory regions of affected server processes. This issue is widely known as Heartbleed, and more formally as CVE-2014-0160. Immediately after becoming aware of the issue, we have checked the server hosting […]


The IoT Framework

Over the past few months we have been quite busy working on our newest product which we call the “IoT Framework”. In a nutshell, the IoT Framework contains everything needed for building software for Internet of Things-enabled devices. Of course the framework is based on our existing C++ toolkits, most notably the POCO C++ Libraries. […]
