BigClue: Towards a generic IoT cross-domain data processing platform

Abstract

Initially IoT systems have been built as isolated solutions for each problem domain. This has implied a lack of standardization and interoperability. The global IoT vision aims to integrate distinct problem domains into a unified network in order to offer enriched context and meaningful correlations. Connecting global platforms with multiple IoT sensor networks will imply increased data processing requirements. In this paper we first present the main technical challenges and non-functional requirements demanded by a cross-domain IoT data processing platform. We then propose a cloud based data processing architecture that integrates a collection of suitable frameworks from existing state of the art work. In the end we validate the proposal with a reference implementation.
