Machfu Launches Software Development Kit
SDK Makes It Easy to Develop Innovative Industrial Apps
Rockville, MD (April 15, 2020) — Industrial IoT leader Machfu has added more flexibility and power to its signature industrial gateway with the launch of the Machfu Software Development Kit (SDK). The SDK is a set of tools that allow application developers to work in industrial markets to develop new and innovative apps that run on the Machu Gateway. Machfu’s SDK makes it easier to rapidly develop Apps that improve industrial operations.
“For years our customers have used the Machfu Gateway to provide a secure edge to cloud connectivity because it simplifies configuring, connecting, managing, and processing data from equipment running on different protocols,” said Jai Dialani, Machfu’s Director of Products. “Our graphical SDK now provides industrial customers with a set of tools to develop tailor-made industrial Apps in as little as six weeks.”
The greatly abbreviated timeline is possible because the bulk of the application software is auto-generated, which means developers only need to write their own business logic. This frees application developers and domain experts who work with Modbus, DNP3, and IEC 60870 protocols to focus exclusively on their own value-add.
“The SDK provided by Machfu IIoT Solutions is easy to use and lets one develop smart grid applications rapidly. Since the Android studio is used for application development, it does not require deeply embedded programming experience and most of the application is auto-generated except for the core business logic,” said Dave Greenly, Software Architect, TAV Networks. “Machfu’s unique low power edge intelligence capabilities, powered by a customizable application framework, helps customers focus on what they do best and remain competitive in their field.”
Machfu’s SDK libraries are designed with a highly optimized code to achieve maximum performance with minimal overhead. Its proprietary set of industrial plugins enables interactive and dynamic workflows through GUI wizards and generates template code allowing the developer to focus on business logic. The following plugins are included in the SDK for swift application development and innovation:
Project Creation: Create an industrial App to run on the Machfu Gateway
Network Configuration: Configure/Provision IP network layers to configure firewall rules, and port forwarding
Device Configuration: Access underlying device-specific protocols including Modbus, DNP3 and IEC 60870
Data Model: Abstract device protocols and their corresponding object models to an abstract data model
Time Series Database Library: Option for Apps to record events and interactions with their configured devices for scenarios based on custom business logic which may include data for the historian, edge analytics, audit trails, and post-event analysis
Cloud Connector: Create MQTT connections to providers such as AWS IoT, Azure IoT Hub, Google Cloud IoTCore, including support for private MQTT brokers
Security: Provides an implementation of the security best practices

IIoT Helps Oil Companies Weather Market Fluctuations
In late April 2020, crude oil prices temporarily dropped into negative territory, shocking oil industry analysts who had never witnessed a situation where sellers were theoretically paying customers to take oil off their hands. While the negative price of oil was a temporary blip, it highlights the importance of finding cost-saving measures in the oil and gas industry.
Machfu’s low-power industrial gateway is one way that oil and gas companies can cut costs. It saves money two ways: by using edge computing power to operate oil pumps more efficiently and by using less power to operate the gateway itself. There are other technology solutions that can connect pumps and other equipment to the cloud, but only Machfu does it using significantly less power.
Oil operations are by nature physically large and spread out. Bringing oil field assets online makes it much easier to monitor their performance, change operating setpoints, and anticipate maintenance and repair needs ahead of equipment failure. Using the Machfu Industrial IoT (IIoT) Gateway, operators can analyze a number of parameters from a smartphone or desktop, as opposed to having to go out in the field.
Machfu’s solutions:
Improve production efficiency through integration with pump hardware and data analytics using the best practices of modern security
Reduce downtime by protecting motors and mechanical components
Optimize OPEX and address aging infrastructure through remote monitoring and web services
Facilitate asset management and long-term planning to stay ahead of challenges

Four easy-to-prepare Coconut desserts
The sultry months of summer paint a picture of gulping down gallons of coconut water under palmy trees. But the popularity of coconuts goes beyond just a refreshing summer drink and today, coconut shavings, coconut jam, coconut crisps, desiccated coconut, coconut milk, coconut sugar, coconut flour and coconut oil and other products of this humble fruit grace the shelves at your local grocery store.
As a fruit that is laden with benefits, whipping up sweet treats using virgin coconut oil for cooking or other coconut products gives your dessert an edge over those that use butter, vegetable oil and margarine. With its ability to surge the body’s calorie-burning power by up to 50%, this fragrant oil can happily make its way into your cakes, waffles, muffins only to come out healthier and nutritious. So, gorging on them isn’t as much a crime to your diet as ordinary desserts would be.
We’ve listed a few scrumptious coconut delights that give you a reason to dig in instead of simply skipping your dessert altogether:
Coconut Ladoos:We bet you cannot name a single Indian festival that doesn’t call for ladoos. They are a staple and so we have one more recipe to add to your repertoire of traditional sweets. To make this, all you need is shredded coconut, virgin coconut oil or natural coconut oil and coconut milk, sugar and spices. Bring to a bubbling boil 1/3 cup of coconut milk, 2 teaspoons of virgin coconut oil, salt and sugar. To this, add 1.5 cups of shredded coconut, 2 tablespoons of coconut flour and cardamom. When the mixture cools, mold into small balls and refrigerate. The wait for yummy, fudgy coconut ladoos is over!
Lemon coconut bars:For a summer party in your mouth, lavishly indulge in both lemons and coconuts. This tart simply calls for whisking together ½ cup of virgin coconut oil with ¼ cup of sugar and 1.5 cups of flour, an egg, a pinch of salt and vanilla extract to form the crumb. After baking until golden brown, smear a cup of lemon curd onto the bar and finish off with grated coconut. To score high on the coconut spectrum, be generous with the coconut shavings.
Coconut Mithai:This silky smooth sweet preparation does justice to the creamy texture of a coconut. It requires you to stir-fry 1 cup of desiccated coconut in a pan with 1 tablespoon of melted ghee and previously roasted golden brown cashew nuts. Reduce the heat and add 1 cup of coconut milk, a little honey, cardamom powder and set aside to cool on a flattened surface. Once cooled, slice and serve.
Chocolate and coconut drops:We cannot think of a better recipe that gives you the best of both worlds. You can put this dessert together by simply freezing several tablespoons of virgin coconut oil, coconut cream, honey and cocoa powder. Once frozen, mould into bite sized balls and toss them in grated coconut - because there’s no such thing as too much coconut!
And there you have it - nutritionally superior, extremely delicious desserts that hero a simple fruit with many benefits.

Baking with Virgin Coconut Oil
The world is changing and advancing forward each passing day. However, the culinary world seems to be moving back to the basics. With everyone seeking ingredients that are fresh, real and organic, the industry is also changing. Gone are the days we feared consuming chemicals that came to us in guise of food! Now, people are turning their eyes towards a healthier platter that hail straight from the nature. There is one such superfood that has become a darling of the whole food movement with a good reason. This superfood is none other than Virgin Coconut Oil itself. Virgin Coconut Oil is not only considered to be one of the healthiest oils but is also a great ingredient to add in your meals. It is undoubtedly the key ingredient on the grocery list of many home cooks, chefs and bakers worldwide. It is versatile oil that doesn't leave any strong after-taste. The fatty acids in virgin coconut oil also make it more heat-resistant and help it retain its full health benefits, which are usually removed in other ingredients during high-heat cooking. While there are many ways to consume Virgin Coconut Oil, here we are going to focus on using it to bake. Virgin Coconut Oil has a relatively high smoke point of 350°F, this allows it to be used at higher heat. Another thing that makes virgin coconut oil special is the Medium Chain Triglycerides (MCTs) it has. MCTs are a healthy form of dietary fat that gets rapidly broken down and absorbed to provide multiple health benefits like weight management, supporting cognition, giving a boost to energy levels and helping ease digestion. You may use it in place of butter to grease cake pans, muffin tins, and other baking dishes. All you need to do is take a pastry brush or a paper towel and spread a thin coating over the surface of the bakeware. You can also add Virgin Coconut Oil to your meals in place of butter, margarine, or vegetable oil. You can use it to make cakes, muffins, waffles, biscuits, scones or even cookies! Now your holiday season won't need a dessert-detox, as Virgin Coconut Oil definitely makes your sweet treats healthier.

Virgin Coconut Oil - effective oil boosting brain function in Alzheimer's patients
Alzheimer’s disease in older adults is known to be the most common cause of dementia. It is an irreversible, progressive brain disorder that slowly destroys memory and thinking skills and eventually the ability to carry out the simplest of daily tasks. It is also now known as insulin resistance of the brain. Dementia ranges in severity from the mildest stage where it just begins to affect a person’s functioning to a severe stage where the person has to depend on others for basic activities of daily living.
Older adults with a history of heart disease, stroke, high blood pressure, obesity and diabetes are at an increased risk of Alzheimer’s disease. Age related changes in the brain affect neurons by causing shrinking of certain parts of the brain, inflammation, production of unstable molecules called free radicals causing Alzheimer’s disease.
A healthy lifestyle coupled with a nutritious diet and physical activity, social engagement, prevention of lifestyle diseases such as diabetes, high blood pressure can help people stay healthy and prevent Alzheimer’s in the future. There is extensive research being conducted in the area of use of
coconut oil in weight management
, heart disease, Alzheimer’s and antimicrobial activity among others. Coconut oil contains 92% of saturated fats, out of which almost 48% comes from lauric acid and 7% from capric acid which are medium chain fatty acids (MCFA). Coconut oil has been known to be one of the richest sources of MCT’s which are known for its immense health benefits.
Virgin Coconut Oil (VCNO)
is being recommended for its myriad
health benefits
today. It is obtained from fresh, matured kernel of the coconut by mechanical or natural means, cold pressed & non-refined. Virgin coconut oil has good taste and smell, since it is derived from fresh coconuts and is subjected to very low, if not totally nil, heat and sunlight. The process of extraction of VCNO preserves all the natural goodness of this oil, including a high content of vitamin-E and minerals.
Many studies have shown a positive association between
virgin coconut oil consumption
and prevention of Alzheimer’s disease. Several studies have shown positive improvements in cognition, cognitive performance, orientation, and semantic memory in individuals after intervention with virgin coconut oil.
How MCT can help prevent Alzheimer’s/Cognitive decline/Dementia
Medium chain fatty acids (MCFA) that are present in coconut oil are easily absorbed and metabolised by the liver and can be converted to ketones. Ketones are alternate fuel to glucose and the main ones include beta-hydroxybutyrate and acetoacetate.
The brain’s main fuel is glucose, the problem for the aging brain is not getting enough glucose supply, but rather its deteriorating ability to take up and use glucose available in the blood. Unlike other organs, brain uses ketones (ketone bodies) as a back-up for glucose.
Medium chain fatty acids travel through the entrance of the venous system into the liver and are more readily available for oxidation to ketones to provide a rapid source of energy, this provides an inexpensive source of alternate fuel to compromised neurons in persons with Alzheimer’s disease
Several studies conducted in humans and animals have shown that when 20gms of VCNO/MCT oil was given daily, significant improvement was seen in cognitive performance and memory in people with age-related neuronal disorders
Hence it is recommended to include Virgin Coconut Oil (VCNO) in prescribed amounts to your daily diet to help prevent Alzheimer’s disease, improve Cognition and cognitive performance

Containerization in the Industrial Internet of Things Market
Smartphone users take containerization or sandboxing of applications for granted. It’s the reason that if one app crashes on your phone, your other apps and the phone’s operating system continue working. It’s also the reason why if one app gets hacked on your phone, the hacker does not gain access to data in any other app.
Machfu helps industrial systems take advantage of containerization approaches that improve operation, maintenance, and security. In the enterprise IT world, containers can decouple computational workloads from the computing substrate on which they run. This allows deployment of multiple workloads across racks and scaling the hardware resources as necessary to handle the workloads. Machfu’s curated Android platform serves as a containerization scheme that’s proven in massive scale.
The benefits of containerization in the machine market include:
Virtual Machines – A container can act like a lightweight virtual machine but without incurring the significant overhead that comes from simulating every aspect of the target machine within the host machine.
Partitioning – Containers allow systems to avoid “dependency hell,” by providing strong partitioning between application components on a target machine.
Enhanced Security – Containers allow enhanced security policies and constraints to be imposed on an application by constraining the container engine itself.
Orchestration Systems – Containerization systems include or interoperate with orchestration systems that provide the means to dispatch containers to host machines and determine which containers should be dispatched to which hosts.
For a much deeper dive into containerization approaches for the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), please read our recent article in Mission Critical magazine.
