Rules and alerts
Now that we have the setup to get the sensor data into the cloud, we can show it in a dashboard or run intelligence on top of that data as well as execute certain user-defined rules on the incoming data.
The rule here can be as simple as: if the temperature sensor data is greater than 25 °C, send me a notification on my mobile or if the temperature sensor data is less than 18 °C, turn off the air conditioner.
These rules can be created by the user and automate a lot of things based on context and needs.
Inspired by this thought, a popular service named IFTTT came to life.
