Open Standard ecosystemPlatform open globalsustainable
CAP TABLES OF CONTENTSOpen Standard Platform
• Avoid vendor lock‐in:– Standard Southbound APIs for sensor providers.– Standard Northbound APIs offered to applications.– Portability among platform providers.– Interoperability of solutions enabled by the platform.
• Larger community of developers– True innovation.– Lower costs.
N ti l t d d i h• No one particular standard is enough– Modularity for improved flexibility– Enable a variety of business models.– Integration with standard open data platform.
