1. The Internet of Things Decoupling Data Producers from Data Consumers - Bridging the M2M Implementation Barrier Amaro, 20.05.2013 Robert Andres

2. The Internet of Things Legacy Architectures – Implementation Barrier Complex mix of data producers, consumers, and services is not addressed: One-to-One data relationship between the services (devices, sensors) and the (enterprise) applications requiring the data Custom applications on a database level are required to access data 60%-90% of Project Effort on Data Delivery Costly Bandwidth Consumption Protocol is the Transport – Can’t break apart

3. The Internet of Things Legacy Architectures – Implementation Barrier One-to-One data relationship between the services (devices) – monolithic solutions. Custom applications are required to access data Custom “Monolithic” Applications Enterprise Applications Location # 2 Location # 3 Implementation Barrier Location # 1 WAN / Internet

4. The Internet of Things Decoupling Producers & Consumers of M2M Device Data Many-to-Many data relationship between the business applications and the devices Enterprise Applications Location # 3 Location # 1 Location # 2 Enterprise Service Bus For M2M Device Data

5. The Internet of Things Effectively decoupling consumers and producers of (M2M) data Many To Many Relationship Primary Business Activity Is Addressed Data Delivery Using Common Protocol Efficient Bandwidth Utilization Utilizes TCP/IP Network Topology Solution: Enterprise Service Bus for M2M

6. The Internet of Things Decoupling Producers & Consumers of M2M Device Data Transportation & Logistics Logistics Medical & Healthcare Industrial & Energy Communication Infrastructure Security & Surveillance

7. The Internet of Things Architectural Approach for more effective M2M Solutions What needs to be done: Decoupling of consumers and producers of data Single flexible & manageable M2M infrastructure Flexible, IT centric SEN hardware & software platforms But … “Minimal-invasive” approach Integrating legacy systems, preserving investments Reduce cost (WAN, cellular, implementation, operations)
