This is post #5 in my blog series about the subject. In the previous post I explained how Azure stream analytics processes all of the incoming messages and places them in the sinks you configure. In my case, messages are now being written to Azure storage blobs, where they reside as CSV files. In this post,

These days I’m working a lot with Android emulators. Both the Google as well as the Visual Studio one rely on visualization technology, but different ones. The problem with this is that only one of two technologies can be in use at the same time. For Android I needed Intel HAXM (Hardware Accelerated eXecution Manager)

Those of you who might follow me on Twitter (@jsiegmund) might have seen this tweet about my Azure credits running out fast: This was caused by the Azure IoT suite remote monitoring sample, which eats up your credits very fast when you leave it running. Now wouldn’t it be nice if there were some way

Things are progressing well in my quest to create an Azure connected aquarium monitor! This is post #4 in my blog series about the subject. In the previous post we ended up sending messages with measurements to an Azure IoT hub. In this post we’ll take a look at what happens next, since we’re not actually

Hi there! This is post #3 in my Aquarium monitor series. In the previous post I showed how I linked some sensors to my Arduino Nano and coupled that with a Raspberry Pi 2 via I2C. However, I didn’t yet show you how you can now get the data that the Arduino is sending. We’ll

Hi there! This is post #2 in my Aquarium monitor series. In this post, I’ll explain how I wired the different sensors to my Raspberry Pi and Arduino devices. Now you probably do not have exactly the same set-up as I have, as there are all kinds of different devices out there which all require

Happy new year everyone! A new year, time for some new things! Somewhere back in 2015 I decided to buy a couple of Raspberry Pi’s, two Arduino nano devices and some other IoT stuff (sensors, cables, etc). The goal I have is to build a device which can monitor my fish tank, keeping track of things

For a client, we’re currently migrating a lot of their existing on-premises SharePoint 2007 and 2010 solutions to Office 365. All of these are customized (the easy work has been done already), so that sort of guarantees running into stuff that is not Office 365 – ready. One category of items are InfoPath forms and

This post of mine is an oldie from back in 2013 when Windows Phone 8 and Windows 8.1 were still fresh and hip. We’ve moved on and I really like Windows 10 up to now. I’ve been a Windows Insider since February 2014 so I’ve got some mileage running the latest insider builds on my ultrabook. Reactions are

My previous tech blog covered the use the of the Yeoman generator for creating Office add-ins, specifically add-ins which can be used within Office365 and the Office client applications. This left you with a vanilla sample application which doesn’t do much yet. In this post, I will explain how to implement such an add-in, leveraging
