History

In 2007, London architect Usman Haque founded Pachube as a data infrastructure and community for the Internet of Things. Following the nuclear accidents in Japan in 2011, Pachube was used by volunteers to interlink Geiger counters across the country to monitor the fallout. In July 2011, Pachube announced that they had been acquired by LogMeIn and renamed to Cosm. Cosm came out of beta development and was rebranded as Xively to become a Public Cloud for the IoT in May 2013.
Google purchased Xively from LogMeIn on March 20, 2018.
