BITXBIT: Giving Users Their Platform Back, Leveraging Zephyr to enable super-flexible IoT designs, Connecting the Nordic’s new nRF9151 to Golioth

Giving Users Their Platform Back
Prior to joining Golioth a little over a year ago, I remember being struck by the number of services and features offered by the platform. OTA updates, logging, time-series data storage, a real-time database, settings — the list goes on.
Coming from a cloud services background, I felt certain that Golioth was unique amongst its peers in trying to offer every IoT service a product could possibly need, but as I continued to research competitors I was surprised to see that this was the norm, not the exception.?
It makes sense why a connected device platform would try to give you the kitchen sink on your one precious network connection. Still, I am skeptical of the ability of IoT-focused platforms to offer every cloud service you could ever need, and I feel pretty comfortable saying that considering we are building one ourselves! In other words, I am concerned that companies and individuals building connected device products are being prevented from using the right tool for the job.
Last week’s launch of Golioth Pipelines represents a paradigm shift in the architecture of the platform, which will enable additional features in the coming months. Rather than being constrained by an opinionated Golioth API, users can define their own APIs on Golioth by creating multiple pipelines with different path and content_type filters. This technical change reflects our renewed focus on Golioth’s core value proposition: device connectivity.
Realizing the vision of making Golioth the universal connector for IoT means giving more choice to our users, and we are excited for how this new architecture enables that goal.

User Question: Can Golioth run on a Non-Secure build of my system (nrf9160, using official DK)?
Answer: All of our?Zephyr/Nordic samples?for the nRF9160 DK are built as a Non-Secure Zephyr applications. As you pointed out, in order to use the modem, the application for the nRF9160 DK must be built as?_ns. View the full thread here.
