This document discusses integrating Internet of Things (IoT) devices and cognitive services into IBM Connections Cloud. It provides examples of connecting an Arduino device to IBM Watson IoT Platform using MQTT protocol. It then connects the IoT data to IBM Connections using Node-RED for processing and writing the data to activity streams, blogs, etc. It demonstrates setting up Alexa voice commands to retrieve IoT updates from Connections. The document outlines plans to add more cognitive capabilities using IBM Watson services and security considerations for the integrated solution.

Editor's Notes
- #10: On the right, we have our collaborative systems IBM Connections Watson Workspace This is where we are pushing information to or pulling it from
- #14: Our red button box uses wifi to connect with Watson IoT platform via MQTT MQTT is Message Queue Telemetry Transport an ISO standard publish-subscribe-based "lightweight" messaging protocol for use on top of the TCP/IP protocol. Watson IoT Platform connects to Node Red, which in turn POSTs an API call to Connections
- #31: For further examples of where cognitive can be taken with IBM Connections We saw the Watson Workspace bot from the technical ODS which queried IBM Connections forum content Using NodeJS, Watson Rank and Retrieve, Solr and more Van Staub from IBM did a great walk through on how this was built in session 1044A & 1044B yesterday
- #32: He also showed a way to get a Watson Recommends community app by - Adding your interests as labels in Profiles Crawling the content of a Connections Community Classifying the content using Watson Natural Language Classifier Displaying relevant recommended content back in the community overview page
