We Need You to Test a Cloud Connectivity Manager Eval Kit

rscasny
rscasny over 1 year ago

One of the most important functions of the element14 RoadTest programmer is to provide some feedback to a supplier who is launching a new product.

Imagine how important it would be to you, if you were introducing a new product to the marketplace and you had some people tell you that your documentation needs a change or you are missing a cable in your kit. 

Suppliers come to the element14 community because they know that are members have the background to do this kind of testing.

Some roadtest products are sophisticated and involved to roadtest. I recall a gate driver roadtest a few years ago that was really challenging to roadtest. 

And some roadtest products are easy to roadtest. I would put the Raspberry Pi in that category. Even most Arduino boards. 

A sponsor would like element14 members to test its new Cloud Connectivity Manager Eval Kit. They say it is easy to use.  Let us help Infineon to verify what they say is what a new customer should experience.

As far as review writing, some roadtest review reports and involved. I am thinking that the report for this product should not be. 

If you are a member who would like to get involved in the roadtest program, yet does not have a ton of spare time, this may be the product to start with.

I encourage you to visit the roadtest enrollment page. If this interests you, click the enroll button. 

If you have any questions, feel free to post a comment below

    Very generous. But not needed. The exercise can be done for free. Either with a new trial account, or with an existing account at no extra charge.

    My first 3 hours of trying to "Get Started" have not been very productive. I'm having thoughts of ending this roadtest early with pyrotechnics. Maybe I'll start again fresh tomorrow.

    AWS do indeed provide free credit - in order to get people using AWS. This will definitely be sufficient for any road testing. One small warning though. Whilst Azure will stop working if you run out…

    You should be able to apply for this roadtest now. Try to.

    oh, thank you, i don't think i'll be taking part in any road tests for now, with the Flyback transformer contest going on. It was more of a general question about the inability to enroll due to location when my location shouldn't be excluded according to requirements, and this has been the case in the past, when i've wanted to take part in a roadtest. Just checking, it seems i'm only able to enroll to this one and not the others currently available(which again, not considering roadtests while busy with the flyback project, just curious about the limitation)

    although, the AD3 roadtest would pair in nicely with the flyback project, as it hs basically all the instruments one would need to test a power supply, for an electronic load
    thanks again!

    Yes, it is nice of you. But this roadtest is really trying to get a good understanding of customers' experience in connecting to the cloud. So, we would want them to create an AWS account on their own if they do not already have one.

    thanks, so, is there a reason why this happens with every road test?

    We have a long list of countries to select from to make the roadtest viewable. For business purposes and costs, we do not advertise in every single country in the world. I have not been shipping roadtest products to Colombia and maybe that's why it was not included. But now it will be included going forward. Really, all you would have had to do was contact me and I would have added your location to the list, assuming the country is authorized.

    I contacted Infineon yesterday about this. They told me: Linux PCs or Macs can also be used.  The PC is providing a terminal emulator for communicating with the Cloud Connectivity Manager.

    But the point of the roadtest is to TEST THE DOCUMENTATION. They believe their product solves a problem with difficult connections to the cloud. That's what they want tested. As such, the roadtest needs to use their getting started docs and report on how they worked.

    As a hobbyist frequently using ESP32 boards, I don't really think I am the right public for this module.
    I already use AWS on my day to day (paid for) work so if I was to need interconnection with it in my hobby designs, I would code it myself and still be able to move it to Azure, Google cloud or OVH if need be.

    That being said, I can see that it would be useful for professional designers, avoiding all the complexities associated with securing such access and it will be quite interesting to have this kind of opinion.

    hi! I've contacted you about potentially opening the AD3 roadtest to colombia as well, but received no response. Thank you!
