Yet when evaluating an IoT solution, it\u2019s simply not feasible to do so at scale with physical devices. Building a sensor simulator is the next best choice; however, generating a realistic simulation at very high TPS with ease of configurability is a formidable challenge. When dealing with multiple application or transport protocols, you would be looking at some significant engineering investment.<br \/>\nOn-demand, serverless computing enables developers to try out a fleet of devices on IoT gateways with ease. With a sensor simulator built on top of AWS Lambda, it\u2019s possible to elastically generate device sensors that report their state to the cloud. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/cloudcomputing.sys-con.com\/node\/4211227\" >read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When shopping for a new data processing platform for IoT solutions, many development teams want to be able to test-drive options before making a choice.
