Project Overview
Jelena

6. 6
Challenge – missing interoperability
 Today, we are dealing with many heterogeneous, vertically oriented IoT platforms.
 Thus, the development of cross-platform and cross-domain applications is tedious and expensive.
 Additionally, it leads to high market entry barriers for small innovative business.
 As a result of this, no vibrant IoT ecosystem exists.

7. 7
Our approach
BIG IoT API
MarketplaceApplication Service
 BIG IoT API to provide and consume IoT resources from different platforms in an unify way
 Marketplace to share, discover and monetize IoT resources (data and services)
 Tool for easy development of new, cross- platform services and applications

“The participation to the project gave us the
chance to experiment with technologies which
are not commonly adopted by our competitors,
giving us a competitive edge.” Simularia, Rossella
Prandi
“BIG IoT represents an opportunity in many
ways, from extending our reach to players
located in areas we may never get to, to linking
us up with alternative data and service providers:
this helps creating potential to enrich our offer,
discover innovative approaches to integrate our
data and explore new collaborations.” DFRC,
Chiara Bertoldini
