We're introducing Bluetooth-to-Cloud Connectivity on Golioth, making it seamless for Bluetooth devices to connect to the cloud. Sign up to be the first to access it.

Provisioning Devices over NFC

There are a hundred ways to provision a device, and with this NFC-based hack day project there are now 101. Follow along as we us a Nordic nRF53 as a writable NFC tag that parses the NDEF message, locates PSK-ID and PSK, then stores those credentials to add the device to an IoT fleet.

Unwrapping Certificates

Certificates are the most secure way to connect your device to the cloud. This article reduces confusion surrounding them with simple examples.

A Device That Can’t Be Updated Is a Device That Can’t Be Trusted

Over-the-air updates are a crucial part of building and deploying secured devices, yet many product companies skip this step. This post outlines why it's difficult and how Golioth is making it easier.

Spring Cleaning with Golioth: Dust off your Zephyr skills in April 2025

Spring is a time of renewal, growth, and fresh starts—and your IoT projects deserve some spring cleaning, too! Dust off those ideas sitting idle, sharpen your embedded development toolkit, and join us for a free Zephyr RTOS Training on April 30th, 2025.

Use your J-Link Programmer as a Serial Port for your Device

If you're already using a J-Link programmer in your embedded development, you can use it to interface directly with the target device serial port over the J-Link USB connection. This is extremely handy, especially if your hardware design connects RX/TX pins to the programming header.

Connecting ESP32-C6 to Golioth over OpenThread

We continue to showcase seamless Thread support on Golioth. We used the ESP32-C6 development board from Espressif, demonstrating how we successfully connected it to Golioth over OpenThread using ESP-IDF with minimal changes to our Firmware SDK.
