Cube Case Study: How API's are Core for IoT & A.I.
summary
Cube is a small Linux device built on a NanoPI board with a custom call-detection module that reads caller ID, makes an HTTP query to an API, and pushes customer history and a predicted favorite treatment back to the web UI; the backend runs in Docker Swarm and uses MQTT over WebSocket for real-time updates. UALA operates this for over 9,000 clients, ~1M appointments/month, and plans mobile-call detection, caching, printing and Wi‑Fi gateway features.
