==Introduction==
[[MISC-TN-005: Running AWS Greengrass Core on SBCSPG_Running_AWS_Greengrass_Core_on_SBCSPG|This]] and [[SBCX-TN-003: Deploying modules to Azure IoT Edge_Deploying_modules_to_Azure_IoT_Edge-enabled SBCX with Visual Studio Codeenabled_SBCX_with_Visual_Studio_Code|this]] Technical Note show how to connect two different DAVE Embedded Systems products to famous IoT cloud platforms, Amazon AWS and Microsoft Azure, respectively.
MISC-TN-006 will show instead how to implement an Industrial IoT system by following a different approach. In this case, we will be using open-source software stacks both on the edge device and on the cloud platformwill be used. This choice is extremely flexible and allows making use of implementing on-premise cloud infrastructure as well.
Specifically, on the edge device—the SBCSPG industrial gateway—[https://www.eclipse.org/kura/ Eclipse Kura™] 4.1.0 framework will be installed. On the cloud side, [https://www.eclipse.org/kapua/ Eclipse Kapua™] 1.0.7 modular platform will be used.
==Setting up the cloud platform==
For the sake of simplicity, Kapua platform was installed on a desktop PC running Debian Stretch distribution. The procedure is described [http://www.opensourcerers.org/connecting-kura-to-kapua/ here] and it is quite straightforward, as it is based on the use of a Docker container.The following log shows how to start Kapua: <pre class="board-terminal">sysadmin@linuxbox:~/devel/kapua/kapua/deployment/docker/unix$ ./docker-deploy.shDeploying Eclipse Kapua...compose_events-broker_1 is up-to-datecompose_es_1 is up-to-dateStarting compose_db_1 ... doneStarting compose_broker_1 ... doneStarting compose_kapua-console_1 ... doneStarting compose_kapua-api_1 ... doneDeploying Eclipse Kapua...

==Configuring the edge device==
The installation procedure of Kura framework on the edge device is pretty straightforward as well. Again, please refer to [http://www.opensourcerers.org/connecting-kura-to-kapua/ this document] for more details. In this example, the ''Device Display-Name'' field was customized as follows:
