Integrate IoT cloud analytics and over-the-air (OTA) updates with Google and Mender.io
summary
Shows a working reference integration that links Google Cloud IoT Core and Mender so a single device key pair authorizes both telemetry and OTA, avoiding double-registration. Explains image storage in Google Cloud Storage, builds on Google Compute Engine, and uses Yocto for device images. Describes a proven dual A/B update layout with atomic switchback, default sanity check of reconnect-to-server and hooks for custom tests, and notes the setup scales from thousands to millions of devices; step‑by‑step tutorial is available.
