The article is talking about IPv6 over BLE. The SDK you need for this is the IoT SDK, see here. You also need a BLE enabled router. This can for example be a raspberry pi. There is one problem here and that is that most networks are IPv4, but you can fix this by for example using tunneling.

Hey Thanks

Definitely i will be using a module or development kit in initial stage of development.

Also my application require wifi to be used in receiver side can wifi modules like esp8266 or other SPI devices or may be a OLED display be interfaced with this chip assuming 32-bit ARM® Cortex™ M0 CPU with 256kB flash and 16kB RAM.

once reading a atricle points me to nRF51822 over the internet, as opposed to using Wi-Fi

Does this means that i can directly communicated to the cloud service?

SDK's are free to use or what?

Sounds remarkably similar to this: devzone.nordicsemi.com/.../

It sounds like just a bog-standard beacon application - so pretty much any BLE module should do (the "receiver" end will need to be capable of the "Central" role).

Why not start with a beacon kit: www.nordicsemi.com/.../nRF51822-Bluetooth-Smart-Beacon-Kit

Or there are beacon examples for the various Dev Kits; eg, infocenter.nordicsemi.com/index.jsp

i am very new to this

Then you should certainly be looking at modules rather than chips.
