I'm trying to connect my Laptop(as a Device) to IBM IoT Foundation Cloud in Bluemix - device

I took my laptop as a device to publish some data to the IoT Cloud Foundation, we are getting the state as connected and disconnected.(Fluctuating) But we are unable to see ant sort of data in the dashboard. We are trying to Publih some message or json data to the IOT Foundation Cloud but it is not working for me.
Can we do in this way or not. I already connected Raspberr Pi and BeagleBone Devices to the IoT Foumdation Cloud.
Please Help me on this.

Issue in Data Transfer between IOT Hub and Raspberry pi 3

First of all hi to all as it is my first question on stack overflow.
Pardon me if you find alot of mistakes in my question asking format.
I am trying to make follwoing Project
https://www.hackster.io/wearemakers/get-me-there-bus-intelligent-transportation-system-bits-9a06c1
for my school project but as mentioned in project after receiving data from sensors on IOT Hub of Azure tables will be created automatically but there is no table created and even i don't know how to check data is received on IOT Hub or not
Here is pic of step where i have encountered problem.
You could use Azure IoT Toolkit for VS Code to check whether data is received in IoT Hub.
Right-click your device and select Start Monitoring D2C Message.
The monitored messages will be shown in OUTPUT > Azure IoT Toolkit view.
To stop monitoring, right-click the OUTPUT view and select Stop Monitoring D2C Message.
You could also check out the Wiki Page to see the more detailed usage.
If you could see message arrived in IoT Hub, then there should be the problem between IoT Hub and Azure Storage. Otherwise, it should be the problem of your Raspberry pi not sending message.
i don't know how to check data is received on IOT Hub
You can use Device Explorer to check if data is received by IoT Hub:

Arduino Ethernet Shield connect to Azure IoT Hub

I am new using Arduino.
I have Arduino One using a Ethernet shield and I need to send some information from the Arduino to the my Azure IoT Hub all the examples are using Wi-Fi shield.
I was reading the docs from Azure-IoT-Arduino SDK for Arduino but I could not find useful information.
https://github.com/Azure/azure-iot-arduino
Someone know where I can find information about this problem?
Thank you!
Azure IoT HuB uses TLS to securely connect devices to the Azure Cloud.
The Arduino UNO is not capable of doing secure communication using TLS due to its low memory footprint.
To connect Arduino devices to the Azure cloud you need to look at their 32 bit ARM based offerings like
arduino mkr1000
arduino zero
There are Microsoft Azure IoT SDKs for these platforms.
Another option would be to use another device as a protocol gateway. An easy way to get started would be to use node-red on Raspberry Pi

HPE mobile center server configuration

I need to install the HPE Mobile Center Connector on my local pc without any server just for a trial with UFT. can anyone advice what should i give in the Mobile center IP Address? since server port is by default: 8080
If you want to test mobile with UFT you need to have a mobile center server installed.
The Mobile Center Connector is not used by UFT, it's just a way to connect mobile devices to the MC server without physically connecting the device to the server machine. You should think of the connector as a way to extend the MC server. UFT connects to the server and can see all devices connected to the server (either physically or via connector) so if you don't have a server machine the connector has no meaning.
You can install the MC sever on a virtual machine if this helps.
You can install MC all in one which includes server + connector. It's supported for both Windows & Linux.
There is a trial version so you can test it with UFT.
If you want to try out Mobile testing with UFT, there is a free resource that you can use:
https://marketplace.microfocus.com/appdelivery/content/uft-mobile-add-in-for-local-device
More info from Micro Focus marketplace:
"This “add-in” acts as a connector between UFT and the mobile devices connected directly to the UFT machine. In just a few steps, UFT users can start designing and running mobile app and web tests on one local mobile device at a time without purchasing an additional license. Whether you work in Retail, Telecom, Finance, or other adjacent industries, the UFT Mobile Add-in for Local Devices is a great fit for testers who need to:
Execute their omnichannel content strategy using the same script for desktop and mobile web content
Support mobile testing in organisations that do not have a lab management solution in place
Run mobile tests without needing a new tool for mobile only"

What is Windows Fabric and how to host services in it?

I recently installed Windows Server Service Bus 1.0 (on a Windows Server 2008 R2 machine).
That also installs "Windows Fabric" (not AppFabric).
Could not find much information on it, and googleing it I stumbled on a Lync server post (Windows Fabric is also installed by Lync Server 2013).
Definition:
"Windows Fabric is a Microsoft technology used for creating highly reliable, distributable, and scalable applications."
From the Service Bus architecture intro,it looks like Fabric is what allows for services replication, high availabilty, and fault tolerance.
Anyone knows if that can be used to host custom .NET services? Or any kind of direction would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

I went to a talk by Mark Eisenberg on May 28th at the Microsoft NERD Center near MIT in Boston MA. The talk was mostly about the Azure Service Fabric. General consensus was that if you're using Azure from the infrastructure as a service perspective you aren't really using it.
The next step up is to use Azure naively as a platform meaning that rather than create VMs and hosting them there you're creating cloud services and web jobs and web apps and using the new Logic Api's etc...
But if you really want to build a stateful, resilient service enterprise class you'll want to go underneath the PaaS and write against the Service Fabric directly for greater control.
That's where the money is.
I did a write up on the talk and what the Azure Service Fabric is a few days ago and posted it here.
I don't actually think that Windows Fabric is open product. It is used for infrastructure purposes, and not for deploying custom services. For your custom services you have to use platform built on top of Windows Fabric, like Service Bus, Windows Server App Fabric.
I think Windows Fabric is for internal use by Windows Azure and Private Cloud for clustering, load balancing and so on.
UPDATE:
I've started developing Windows Azure application and here is what I've found.
I've added a Service role to Azure application and started it on local development machine (under Azure emulator). And my service was published in and started under Windows Fabric!
So the conclusion is: Windows Fabric is a platform for running YOUR Cloud Services.
Fabric which the name suggests in itself, is back-end.
It is no different than iSCSI or EIGRP. The main difference is that it is generic in form rather than specific like the aforementioned services/protocols.
IIS is a server service specific to web hosting.
SQL the same but database only..
fabric, applied to host fabric aware services and software.
Windows Fabric is used internal by Microsoft to building highly available, resilient and scalable services. It has been used for Service Bus, SQL Database, Document DB etc. according to this video: Building Resilient, Scalable Services with Microsoft Azure Service Fabric
Until now it has not been available for external parties but has now been announced as Service Fabric which will be available on Windows Azure and Window Server 2016.

Mojo Messaging Service - Device URL

Does anyone know the URL for using the Mojo messaging service with the device. I can get it to work with the emulator from Google App Engine and .NET but it does not work on the device. I've read in some other forums that it may be related to the URL.
Anyone have any information. The URL I am currently using is https://ps15.sb.palm.com/palmcsext/services/deviceJ/publish
Per the docs http://developer.palm.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=1671 :
The Mojo Messaging service is
currently in beta and is not yet
available for production deployments.
Developers with apps nearing readiness
should contact Palm developer support
to inquire about deploying as part of
the beta program.
This means that it only works on the emulator because its running a developer version of the ROM for beta testing - against developer/beta servers. There is not currently a developer ROM available for the devices, so you can test this on the devices at the moment. The production ROM runs against different messaging servers that are not available .. yet.
