Challenge Overview

As part of the launch of our new Topcoder Community for Predix, we are launching a series of fun challenges to help introduce you to GE's Predix platform. This is a repeat of the first challenge of the series and will be a good first step in helping you become acquainted with Predix.


This is a fun challenge. Although there will be no prize money awarded, members who complete this challenge successfully will receive 500 TCO points for TCO ‘17. This is a repeat of the previous Hello World challenge. Members who successfully submitted to the previous Hello World challenge will not be eligible for TCO points again here.


What is Predix?

The Predix platform is a cloud-based Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) for the Industrial Internet. The Predix platform provides tools, framework, guidelines, and best practices that enable you to create solutions to run industrial-scale analytics. As it connects machines, data, people, and other assets, the Predix platform uses leading technologies for distributed computing, big-data analytics, asset data management, and machine-to-machine communication. A comprehensive platform overview can be found here. If you have previously used or are familiar with other platforms-as-a-service (AWS, Google Cloud Platform, Heroku, IBM Bluemix), this should feel right at home.
