In the course of this tutorial we will see how it is possible to use the Raspberry Pi as a AMQP (Advanced Message Queuing Protocol) client and connect it to Windows Azure Service Bus that supports the AMQP version 1.0. Obviously, the choice of the client library is almost forced : Apache Qpid Proton. This library developed in C still provides the bindings for other languages including Java, Python, and PHP but in the course of the article we will use only the native version. Generally, the Raspberry Pi is used with the Raspbian (based on Debian) distribution which is a Linux distribution. This means that we can install the Qpid Proton library as we do on a normal Ubuntu distribution on a PC or on a virtual machine on Windows Azure. Connect to the Raspberry Pi All of the following operations can be performed by directly accessing the Raspberry Pi through a monitor, keyboard, and mouse connected to it or remotely through the use of SSH connection. The latter solution is certainly the most convenient, usi ...
One of the protocols most commonly used in the messaging systems that can be also used for the Internet of Things is the AMQP (Advanced Message Queuing Protocol) that already is OASIS standard and now it is at version 1.0. The Service Bus offered by Windows Azure supports this protocol, that ensures communication between clients developed on different platforms. In the case of a Microsoft platform we have no problem thanks to the Windows Azure SDK (now at version 2.3) that completely abstracts the underlying communication protocol with the Service Bus (AMQP, SBMP, ...) thanks to its programming model. if we are working on a non-Microsoft system, one of the best choices is to adopt the libraries of the Apache Qpid project and in particular the Qpid Proton. This library is developed in C and it provides the bindings for other languages including Java, Python, and PHP. In this tutorial, we will see how to create an Ubuntu Server 12.04 LTS virtual machine on Windows Azure, install and use the Qpid Pr ...
