1 FIWARE overview: examples of usage of big data, and the benefits for smart cities 5 th EU-Japan joint symposium October 17th 2014, Brussels Federico Alvarez Universidad Politécnica de Madrid federico.alvarez@upm.es

3 Understanding FIWARE (Open Standard Platform) (advanced OpenStack-based Cloud + rich library of Generic Enablers) Driven by implementation Sustainability ensured 2

4 FIWARE Platform in a nutshell What is it? Cloud hosting capabilities + rich number of added-value functions offered as a Service Thus, it is an open alternative to existing proprietary Internet platforms (Amazon or Google), enabling an easy development of Future Internet applications ICT Smart Communities will be able to: Choose the provider where to deploy apps to deal with Smart City services Obtain Open Data from such environment in a standard and easy manner FIWARE and ICT-enabled smart communities 3

5 Why an open standard platform is required Avoid vendor lock-in: Standard Southbound APIs for sensor providers Standard Northbound APIs offered to applications Portability across platform providers Interoperability of apps on top of different providers Larger community of developers (critical mass, economies of scale) True innovation More competition, leading to cost savings Not any standard is enough Modularity Allow different business models Integration with standard open data platform Non-intrusive (smooth integration with legacies) 4

6 The Pillars of the ecosystem

7 FIWARE Generic Enablers (GEs) A FIWARE Generic Enabler (GE): set of general-purpose platform functions available through APIs Building with other GEs a FIWARE Reference Architecture FIWARE GE Specifications are open (public and royalty-free) FIWARE GE implementation (FIWARE GEi): Platform product that implements a given GE Open Spec There might be multiple compliant GEis of each GE Open Spec One open source reference implementation of each FIWARE GE (FIWARE GEri): Well-known open source license Publicly available Technical Roadmap updated in every release Available FIWARE GEis, GEris and incubated enablers are published on the FIWARE Catalogue 6

8 FIWARE major differential features Cloud Data/Services Delivery IoT Apps Web UI Security I2ND Federation of infrastructures (private/public regions) Automated GE deployment Complete Context Management Platform Integration of Data and Media Content Easy plug&play of devices using multiple protocols Automated Measurements/Action Context updates Visualization of data (operation dashboards) Publication of data sets/services Easy incorporation of advanced 3D and AR features Visual representation of context information Security Monitoring Built-in Identity/Access/Privacy Management Advanced networking (SDN) and middleware Interface to robots 7

9 Ecosystem and platform: two tied concepts Open Standard Platform Sustainable Open Innovation Ecosystem 8

10 FIWARE Lab: the meeting point where innovation takes place App Customers and Data providers Connect to entrepreneurs Put their data at work Bring new innovative services to end users Be more efficient Social Reputation Entrepreneurs, Developers Develop once for a large market Easily meet potential customers Marketing, promotion Ability to test with real data and end users Simple yet powerful APIs that accelerate product development FIWARE Technology Providers Coopetitive approach Connect to entrepreneurs: jointly exploit the opportunities 4,2 M promotion campaign Campus Party events Startup Weekend events Chambers of Commerce 870 K in prizes 100 M of funding devoted to entrepreneurs in phase 3 of the FIWARE program 9

11 Extending the FIWARE Lab offering for service providers and developers ff 12 nodes in Europe providing up to cores, 16TB+ Ram, 750TB+ HD Creation of nodes in Mexico (1000+ cores) and Brazil 4,2 M promotion campaign Campus Party events Startup Weekend events Chambers of Commerce 870 K in prizes Level 1 and Level 2 support for the nodes Showcases for 100 M of funding devoted developers, to entrepreneurs in phase 3 of the FIWARE program infrastructures, smart businesses

12 A live instance of FIWARE available to developers for free experimentation Not only platform, tools this is powered by data! 11

13 Going from clusters to ecosystems Cross-fertilization between sectors; avoid silos Leading to a more powerful platform offering (based on common functionalities; develop once and reuse as much as you can) Then, translating the sectorial knowledge into domain-specific plafforms 12

14 Startup Weekend FIWARE special editions October 2-5 Germany: Hamburg Italy: Milan October 16-19: Germany: Berlin France: Sophia-Antipolis Spain: Valencia November 13-16: Portugal: Lisbon France: Rennes Each of these events will be structured as follows: Two full-day Bootcamp providing training on main FIWARE Generic Enablers. A Startup Weekend event focused on FIWARE 13

15 Modularity; integration with legacies Domain-specific platforms = FIWARE + specific enablers SMART Agrifood Apps SMART City Apps SMART Factory Apps Domain specific enablers FIWARE GEs 14
