This week on IoT Happy Hour we are going to show how to deploy The Things Stack Open Source Edition network server on a Raspberry Pi with balena. After installing The Things Stack (TTS) network server we will showcase how to deploy a Basics Station gateway running along with TTS.
Hang out on the Happy Hour and learn how to manage your own private The Things Stack network with a complete stack of this LoRaWAN technology. At the end we will try to deploy with the Basics Station gateway and TTS, the connector block with InfluxDB and the dashboard balenaBlock to have an end-to-end system running in 1 click.
