I've found here that Nordic people use Raspberry PI as BLE-enabled router. Could someone give me reference to detail info about setting it up.

Hi,
This is described in the Getting Started section of the IoT SDK documentation. Note that since the documentation was written, one thing have changes which makes it easier to setup:
Raspbian OS does come with the bluetooth_6lowpan kernel module precompiled, meaning you can skip the steps described in *Building Raspbian Kernel with bluetooth_6lowpan module*.
Best regards,
Jørgen

Thanks I'll read. I've noticed we need to install iot softdevice that we can not use for production. Could you give me advice. I would like to use nrf52832 chip like controller for gathering data from sensors. In most case It will be data getting from industrial weighing scale. Then I would like to send data to something like cloud server for analyze by customers via desktop computers or such of that. How do you think can use your solution for that project. I mean nrf52832 + raspberry pi 3 (with 3g modem probably)
and more questions... I make projects based on general sdk (14 version now), uart example, buttonless dfu and etc that must work with preinstalled softdevice (5 version now). Are there any problems to do the same things (create app based on examples in sdk) with IoT softdevice.
I ordered nordic thingy 52 and as I understand I can get access to examples with original code in part of using nrf52 as IoT device. Can I used that code with that sofdevice for production projects?
or maybe better and more robust use link nrf52832 + sim800l (send data via gprs)
We are working on a production grade IoT softdevice, as described in this answer. Please contact your regional sales manager for more details on the schedule for this release. Are you planning to do IPv6 over 3G? It should be possible to use SDK drivers/libraries together with IoT softdevice.
The firmware for Thingy:52 is available here. Thingy can be setup to connect to nRF Connect, which can relay data to nRF Cloud service. This does not implement IPv6 over BLE, like IoT SDK/softdevice does. This is meant for development of IoT solutions, not production service.
I have not used sim800l, but if this is a better alternative will depend on your application and requirements.
