Presentation Title - The Internet of Things: Beyond the Hype

Speaker Biography
Mike Maas is a Cisco Technical Evangelist focused on Internet of Things. He works in the DevNet team helping to facilitate technology access, content, and experiences to developers around the world. Mike has way too many systems, devices, and gadgets with never enough time to tinker with them all.

Presentation Description
In this discussion we will survey the state-of-the-art relating to the Internet of Things and try to separate what is marketing hype from what is production-ready and what is reality from fiction.

We will cover a large swath of the technologies and use cases from the ground to the cloud with professional insight into where the field is and where it is going. There will be some equipment show-and-tell and time for questions so please come and join the discussion.

North City Tech Meetups follow an every-other-month schedule. One month we feature a speaker and alternate months are general discussions. We meet at either the Shoreline Library or Lake Forest Library depending on their availability. You can check out the Meetup.com site above for each month’s topic.
