**Note** - The API of this client is still considered unstable as the Sidecar Platform API continues to be worked on.  If there is an unexpected error, please file an issue with as many details as you can reasonably provide.

---------------------------------------

The Sidecar Java client wraps the full <a href="https://api.sidecar.io/docs">Sidecar REST API</a> and handles event ingestion, authenticaion and queries. 

<b>What is Sidecar?</b>

Sidecar is a data platform purpose built to consume and analyze sensor-based data streams so that the owners and developers of IoT hardware do not need to be concerned with the large infrastructure and development overhead associated with the long term persistence and meaningful computation of that data.  Once device data is stored in Sidecar, the platform is capable of:

- Returning the raw source data
- Generating Insights
- Propagating notifications that are executed based on rules defined by device owners
- Aggregation of inbound data sources
- Allowing developers to write interactive ad hoc queries whose results can be used in reporting web and mobile applications
