##IOT Cloud & Heroku Enterprise: Appliance Marketing iBeacon Ingestion App

How to Deploy & Configure the Demo

• Ensure you have a Heroku Account and are signed into it
• Click the Deploy to Heroku Button below
• Leave the pre-populated Configuration Vars as-is, unless asked to modify them
• Confirm the Deploy
• Watch the magic of IOT Cloud & Heroku together!

What the Configuration Variables mean

• appID - identifies the Heroku App to IOT Cloud as a "unique In-Store Loyalty Customer" and must be unique
• iotToken - allows IOT Cloud to authorize incoming messages to its Endpoint
• endpointURL - URL the Heroku App uses to send "iBeacon Proximity data to trigger Marketing event" (aka the IOT Endpoint)
• IRON_MQ_PROJECT_ID - allows the Heroku MQ listener to know where incoming messages should be stored (where its queues live)
• IRON_MQ_TOKEN - allows the Heroku MQ to authorize incoming messages from IOT Cloud to its Queue Endpoint
• queueURL - URL the IOT Cloud Orchestration uses to send "iBeacon Proximity data to trigger Marketing event" (aka the Heroku App Endpoint)

Technologies Used in this Demo

1. Heroku Enterprise: used to generate large amounts of real-world data & send it to the IOT Cloud endpoint
2. IOT Cloud: handles message ingestion, orchestration & business workflow for the 'Heroku IOT Demo App'
3. Heroku MQ (Message Queue) Add-On: used to handle UX change responses from IOT Cloud to the Heroku App
4. ASP.NET Core: language the Heroku App was written in (refer to .NET Buildpack Support)

What to Expect Once Deployed

1. Click "Start Sending Data" to begin sending "iBeacon Proximity" location data and display the Shopper's Loyalty Card
2. To simulate the Shopper getting closer to the in-store Appliance Dept., drag the "Proximity to iBeacon" slider to the right
3. Once you drag the slider to under 25 feet from the iBeacon device, you will see a Marketing Event fire and offer a Today-Only Discount
4. To simulate the Shopper moving farther away from the in-store Appliance Dept., drag the "Proximity to iBeacon" slider to the left
5. Once the slider is greater than 25 feet from the iBeacon, the Marketing event stops firing and returns to the Shopper's Loyalty Card
