Iridium, Amazon Unveil Plans for Satellite IoT System

Jeff Bezos Eyeing A Space-Based Internet Of Things Wholly Owned By Amazon In The Future

https://www.trunews.com/stream/iridium-amazon-unveil-plans-for-satellite-iot-system

Satellite communications network Iridium has unveiled a plan in collaboration with Amazon Web Services to provide an Internet of Things network for companies with access to locations previously inaccessible to the physical Internet. The new service, which will be called CloudConnect, will build on Iridium’s existing IoT network by joining AWS’s Partner Network, providing a new options for its customers. According to a report last week by GeekWire: “More and more Iridium customers are using cloud services as the basis of their IT infrastructure, and wanted a method for delivering cloud-based workloads to Iridium devices, said Tim Last, vice president and general manager of the IoT Line of Business at Iridium. That’s especially true for its small-and-medium size customers, but it extends up into larger equipment companies like Caterpillar that are using Iridium for vehicle maintenance diagnostics around the world.”

Currently, Iridium operates its satellite constellation on its own, but relies on SpaceX for getting them into orbit. A single Falcon 9 rocket is able to put 10 Iridium satellites into orbit. AWS has reportedly begun hiring engineers with satellite experience, ostensibly with this new partnership in mind. And, with CEO Jeff Bezo’s open interest in space through Blue Origin, the likelihood of a space-based IoT wholly owned by Amazon cannot be out of the question.

Its kinda funny that he needs spacex to put them in orbit instead of his own rocket company.

This.

With this news, the kikes have officially won, and there is literally no more way to fight back. It's over.

We have to surrender, it's too fucking late for us.

If you think it's over I would invite you to kill yourself because you are the definition of a cuck, You would rather have somebody rail your woman than put up a fight and rail her yourself. You pseudo-humans and most of the French come from the surrender monkey line of pseudo-human that somehow survive to this day.

Yes I did have to outline what a cuck is because you probably gave up before you learned the definition.

This thread is proof enough that (((they))) have won. Nobody will fight back against this. It's too late for us.e

You're a complete moron because I'll just become one of them, Once I'm one of them I'll have less to worry about when it comes to people peering into my stuff, That's much much more appealing than bending over and spreading for anybody who you can convince yourself they were "too much to handle" so you just "had to surrender" you "had no choice".

If you had no choice then there's no problem with you acting like a complete and total faggoty bitch.

Dubs confirm.

To add onto this the botnet will be/is meaningless, beyond a front row seat for (((their))) destruction (if they do as they've in the past) or irrelevance (if they're smart and do a 180) they can't really try to do anything with it.

You'd either get a broken AI that wouldn't work at all if (((they))) tried to get it go their way or if it did work would be totally against (((them))) as Tay and other tests with simple pattern recognition showed.

Calm down and take off your tinfoil hats for a second, fellas.

>to provide an Internet of Things network for companies with access to locations previously inaccessible to the physical Internet

To me it sounds like the purpose of this infrastructure is to improve cell and internet coverage to remote locations. The previous Iridium satellite constellation (put into orbit in the 90s) provided satellite phone service and is currently being phased out and moved into graveyard orbit; new iridium satellites are replacing the old ones. It would make sense that these new upgraded satellites should provide more than just satellite phone service.

Their rocket will blow up again, just like for that facebook sat launch. For reasons.

All I know about the old iridium was that is was supposed to change the world just like project Ginger, but it ended up not being used that much and more or less flopping commercially.

I worked at a startup competitor to Amazon's Iridium. Right now they listen for ship transponders (so shipping companies now where their shit is) and atmosphere data for weather prediction especially over the ocean.

Long term, the idea is to put cheap satellites that can be custom programmed and rent out the space. It's literally the Cloud in the clouds.

>>981524

The largest problem is Radiation-Hardened electronics are decades (plural) behind consumer electronics, not to mention more expensive. The Sun is a harsh mistress. Now project that to the original network when it was launched.

The largest change today is the growing number of launch vehicles + the number of absolute launches, and the cubesat form-factor being inexpensive and light for even skiddish VC money. The tech is also more powerful. The company I worked for used C for hardware drivers, and Python for mission programming on the sat itself.

> Iridium launches and orbits that are designed to deorbit in 2-3 years.

> Needs constant launches to maintain network

> It's a feature as it allows them to constantly update the orbiting hardware
