Connecting Framework of Smart Devices Based on Linux Container Technology

Abstract

With the increasing popularity of smart devices and the rapid development of Internet of things technology, more and more devices need to be connected to Internet to provide better service for users. How to connect smart devices to cloud platform and get better cloud service is an important problem. Problems existing in the existing platform, such as connecting devices process complex and constrained cloud services. This paper presents a connecting framework of smart devices based on Linux container technology, each of these smart devices corresponds to a Docker container in the cloud, the services required by smart devices are packaged in the corresponding Docker image, Developers can define the required services and ignore whether or not be supported by the platform. Smart devices can be connected to this platform by implementing a rest-based web service.
