RE: Upcycled Clock – posting sensor data to Cayenne

Good choice, IMHO! I have experimented Cayenne (if I am not wrong I was contacted by them as one of the first beta testers group) when it was almost primitive and just for the PI only. It was not yet usable in practice due the very reduced set of features but was very promising. I see that now they are going ahead in a very good way. I think that the winner choice of Cayenne is to be open to different kind of platforms - no matte what they was already able to support at the date, this is the trend -

Almost a couple of years ago I was selected to test the LinkItOne board (a more advanced yet expensive Arduino-like device) by Instructables. I developed Hugo version 1 https://www.instructables.com/id/Hugo-or-U-Go-for-LinkIt-ONE/ ) and also Mediatek was appreciable providing an online platform for a decent data exposition making the things easier. The problem in this case was the limitation to their platforms instead of others (they followed a different philosophy)

What I am concerned about Cayenne is what is their business model and what happens to the end user if he buy a product involving Cayenne as the distributed data platform.

There are plans for Cayenne to introduce some new controls so you can pass status messages to your dashboard as well as numbers. This could be a really useful platform.
