Options for IoT device config updates post-Google shutdown?

Hi guys since google has shut down its IoT platform, i have been seeking alternative way to send data from some platforms to IoT devices for config updates. I used to handle updates via Cloud Functions but i am wondering if integrating a different IoT platform with Cloud Functions could work or is there are other options worth exploring??

    Hi @danielkalu i used to use aws iot platform

  2. youcef_ali#0000

    Days a go I have posted a question about this, using cloud services or use you permises broker, what if a day aws will increase the price or decide to stop the service, @umeshlokhande , what do you advise?

  3. Joseph Ogbonna#0000

    I don’t think them increasing the price will be a very good move, it depends on the price margin though.

  4. Joseph Ogbonna#0000

    I guess there should be other alternatives, do you know of any that could compete with them

  5. youcef_ali#0000

    @josephogbonna I agree with you, i mean not only the price,.maybe there Will be another rules, conditions or security policy, do you understand what i’mean any update, not helpful

  6. Daniel kalu#0000

    @youcef_ali Never tried using any aws platform before so how efficient is it please?

  7. Joseph Ogbonna#0000

    Ya I get, I think there should always be a backup plan Incase of anything

  8. Joseph Ogbonna#0000

    Is there any alternatives as I said earlier

  9. Daniel kalu#0000

    I will check it out now

  10. youcef_ali#0

    I would recommend Aws iot core, i’m using it is very efficient
