4 C3 IoT is a Computer Software Company C3 IoT delivers a comprehensive platform as a service (PaaS) for rapidly developing and operating big data, artiﬁcial intelligence, and IoT software as a service (SaaS) applications. C3 IoT also offers a family of conﬁgurable and extensible SaaS products developed with and operating on its PaaS. C3 Type System At the heart of all C3 IoT products is the C3 Type System, a data object-centric abstraction layer that binds the various C3 IoT Platform components, including infrastructure and services. It is both sufﬁcient and necessary for developing and operating complex predictive analytics and IoT applications in the cloud. The C3 Type System is the medium through which application developers and data scientists access the C3 IoT Platform, C3 Data Lake, C3 Applications, and applications and microservices. Examples of C3 Types include data objects (e.g., customer, product, supplier, contract, or sales opportunity) and their methods, application logic, and machine learning classiﬁers. The C3 Type System allows programs, algorithms, and data structures written in different languages, with different computational models, making different assumptions about the underlying infrastructure to interoperate without knowledge of the underlying physical data models, data federation and storage 2017 C3 IoT 1 models, interrelationships, dependencies, or the bindings between the various structural platform or cloud infrastructure services and components (e.g., RDBMS, No SQL, ETL, SPARK, Kafka, Amazon SQS, Amazon Kinesis, object models, classiﬁers, data science tools, etc.). The C3 Type System provides RESTful interfaces and programming language bindings to ALL underlying data and functionality. Leveraging the C3 Type System, application developers and data scientists can focus on delivering immediate value, without the need to learn, integrate, or understand the complexities of the underlying systems. The C3 Type System enables programmers and data scientists to develop and deploy production big data, predictive analytics, and IoT applications in one-tenth the time at one-tenth the cost of alternative technologies.

6 C3 IoT Offers Two PaaS Products C3 Data Lake A comprehensive development and operating environment for rapidly integrating structured and unstructured enterprise, extraprise, and sensor data into a RESTful uniﬁed, federated data image that is kept current in real time as new data arrive. The C3 Data Lake offers near-real time enterprise data concurrency. C3 IoT Platform A development and operating platform leveraging the C3 Type System for executing high-performance and horizontally-scalable SaaS applications. The C3 IoT Platform includes the functionality of the C3 Data Lake and adds a complete and integrated family of software engineering and administration tools for designing, developing, provisioning, deploying, and operating big data, predictive analytics, and IoT SaaS applications C3 IoT 3

7 The C3 IoT Platform includes a complete set of developer and administrative tools: C3 Data Integrator A graphical editor for data engineers to develop integrations to various source data systems (e.g., IT, OT, IoT, and third party). It simpliﬁes data mapping and transformation to source systems through an extensible uniﬁed XML data exchange format and a library of pre-built connectors. C3 Type Designer A graphical editor for data modelers to deﬁne a logical enterprise object model consisting of data objects, their properties and methods, object relationships, and mappings to the physical data model and data stores. It enables the extension and conﬁguration of the C3 Type System. C3 IDE A C3 Type-aware integrated development environment providing software programmers a productive user interface, including a source code editor with intelligent code completion, a C3 Type browser and documentation, and source code compiler, debugger, and version control. C3 Data Explorer A visual interface for application engineers and data scientists to easily view and analyze the C3 Type System and underlying data in the C3 IoT Platform or C3 Data Lake without requiring knowledge of the underlying data stores, physical data schema, or infrastructure services. C3 Analytics Designer A user interface for application developers and data scientists to ﬂexibly deﬁne, extend, and run simple and compound metrics and analytics. It is commonly used by data scientists for feature engineering and by application developers for business logic and presenting summary information in a user interface. C3 Ex Machina An in-memory visual analytics design tool for business analysts and data scientists to explore data, discover features, and develop artiﬁcial intelligence (AI) classiﬁers utilizing data from the C3 Data Lake or the C3 IoT Platform and any additional arbitrary data sets. It provides support for a variety of common machine learning models, including Random Forest, PCA, Linear and Logistic Regression, KMeans, Gradient Boosted Trees, Gaussian Mixture, and Decision Tree. C3 Data Science Notebook An open and extensible interface, that integrates popular data science languages (e.g., Python, R, Scala) and third-party libraries (e.g., MLlib, NumPy, SciPy, scikit-learn, Tensorﬂow and PyTorch) with the C3 Type System and objects, methods, and data available in the C3 IoT Platform. The C3 Type System provides data scientists with RESTful interfaces and programming language bindings to ALL underlying platform functionality, allowing users to rapidly explore data, discover features, and develop AI classiﬁers in an elastically scalable environment. Resultant algorithms can be immediately deployed into production, without any recoding, and are accessible as RESTful C3 Types in the C3 IoT Platform. C3 UI Designer A C3 Type-aware integrated development environment providing software programmers a productive user interface, including a source code editor with intelligent code completion, a C3 Type browser and documentation, and source code compiler, debugger, and version control C3 IoT 4
