This article introduces infinimesh as a Kubernetes-native IoT platform built to integrate massive device fleets without cloud lock-in, and highlights its expanding plugin ecosystem for Elastic, Redis TimeSeries, SAP HANA, Snowflake and cloud-native object storage. Using lightweight Go-based Docker containers, plugins can run securely in user environments—even on AWS free-tier instances—while streaming device data directly into existing infrastructures like S3 or MinIO. The step-by-step example shows how quickly CloudConnect can move IoT data into object storage using docker-compose, with the plugin internally batching device payloads through Redis before exporting them as CSV. In benchmarking, the architecture handled millions of devices sending frequent JSON updates, demonstrating how infinimesh plugins simplify large-scale IoT data integration with minimal resource overhead. First, a short introduction to infinimesh , an Internet of Things (IoT) platform which runs completely in Kub...
