I am researching the use of matlab engine for python on centos7 in AWS. I'd like to get a trial period of 1 month. I want to perform ongoing calculations to calibrate raw sensor readings from mysql into meaningful values. I've used thingspeak but it has limitations one of which is the 8 field limit per channel. A UI is not needed but a management web console would be cool. So how does it work? ;) As the devops person, I see how to install via: python setup.py install Questions: * Where do the scripts go? Recommended folder structure/framework? * Can I cron job the scripts? * Can I access mysql, make queries, update tables? * Can I convert or re-appropriate my existing thingspeak code? * Is there a management web console? * Can there be quick turn-around for trial period support questions? * Licensing and cost? Any references and/or advice appreciated, Chris.
