Hi there,

I've said it before and I'll probably have to say it again: we don't talk enough about what it means for an IoT engineer to scale a product. It's fun to brainstorm prototype concepts and get up and running with Notecard and Notehub, but sometimes the enjoyment wears off when we start to scale. That's why we are partnering with Ubidots and Sento to present Scalable IoT for Developers β€” a webinar where we'll talk about what breaks, what may blindside you, and what you wish someone had told you...before you deployed.

 

P.S. Take the shortest survey ever to let us know how we are doing. πŸ’™
