Memory on Portenta H7 lite

Hardware Portenta Portenta H7
1

Hello everyone,

I'm creating a project that would read data (appx. every 1 minute), save it, and then upload it to the cloud.
According to my understanding storing data with that frequency on the onboard Flash (Portenta H7) is not recommended, as it doesn't have many r/w cycles.
I'm not sure if there are any other possibilities to store the data besides the MKR MEM shield, which has an onboard Flash that can be used for that kind of usage. Any other suggestion on how to save data besides on the MKR MEM would be greatly appreciated.

If my understanding is not correct about the ability not to write that frequently on the Portenta, please correct me.

Hi @johndoes ,

You can use an SD card by pairing your Portenta H7 with Portenta Breakout or Portenta Vision Shield.

On the other hand you can take a look at the features offered by Arduino IoT Cloud here https://docs.arduino.cc/arduino-cloud/getting-started/technical-reference

Best,
