The cloud services provide the functionality to intelligently collect and analyze data, as well as manage devices through their entire lifecycle.DATA INTERFACES
The BlackBerry IoT platform is designed to support data portability and analysis. Developers can take advantage of REST APIs, scalable data pipes, and persistent message queues to stream and exchange data with external systems.BlackBerry IoT Platform SDKs
So you want to develop an application to connect to the BlackBerry IoT Platform. Why? At the simplest level, the BlackBerry IoT Platform SDKs allow your application to connect to and store device-specific information in the cloud.
