Another question about the nRF9160: is it able to connect to WiFi?

Thank you for that response.

I have a follow up question. I noticed the nRF9160 has a GPS antenna. Can the GPS coordinates of a device be transmitted to the nRF Cloud/ AWS gateway over LTE-M?

Hello,

[quote user=""]1. Is it possible to use the nRF Connect for Cloud to store incoming LTE-M data in a database? And then pull info stored in that database from a webpage?[/quote]

Yes, it should be possible to store information on nRF Cloud. From docs.nrfcloud.com, under Device Messages, it states:

Device messages are stored on nRF Cloud for 30 days if they are sent over the supported message topics or via the SendDeviceMessage endpoint.

If you need longer term storage, you can easily create your own storage mechanism. See our message bridge guide for details. Otherwise, please contact Nordic Sales.

Messages sent via MQTT over unsupported message topics are not stored.

[quote user=""]2. Is it possible to send data from the nRF9160 to a database hosted on AWS through an AWS IoT Core gateway? [/quote]

Yes, this should be possible as well. The AWS IoT sample can publish and subscribe to AWS MQTT broker. How data is handled on the AWS server is up to you, and I will refer to AWS documentation.

Kind regards,
Øyvind
