About the Author

Diogo Resende is a passionate developer obsessed with perfection in everything he works on. He loves everything about the Internet of Things, which is the ability to connect everything together and always be connected to the world.

Over the past 10 years, Diogo has embraced different challenges to develop applications and services to connect people with embedded devices around the world, building a bridge between old and uncommon protocols and the Internet of today.

ThinkDigital has been his employer and a major part of his life for the last few years. It offers services and expertise in areas such as computer networking and security, automation, smart metering, and fleet management and intelligence.

First of all, I would like to thank my wife, Ana, for putting up with my late-night writing sessions. She has given me enough of the space and tranquility that I needed to take up this challenge. I would also like to thank my son, Manuel, for being born exactly when I started writing the book, for stealing my attention but also making my days happier, and for giving me the strength to carry on and overcome every obstacle.

Last but not least, I would like to thank everyone in my company for putting up with me. I thank my business associate, Nuno, and my work colleagues Sílvia, Luis, and Helder for collaborating and helping the company go ahead and achieve all our dreams.
