GATEWAYS
What is a device?
■ Basic Devices: Devices that only provide the basic services of sensor
readings and/or actuate and provide limited support for user
interaction.
■ Advanced Devices: Devices that provide the services of sensor
readings and/or actuate, provide support for user interaction and also
host the application logic and a WAN connection.
Deployment Scenarios
■ Basic Devices
– Home alarms
– Smart meters
– Building automation systems(BAS)
– Standalone smart thermostats
■ Advanced Devices
– Onboard units in cars
– Robots and autonomous vehicles
– Video camera
– Connected printers
Basic Devices
■ The benefit of hosting this logic on the gateway instead of the network
is to avoid downtime in case of WAN connection failure, also minimize
usage of costly cellular data and reduce latency.
■ The execution environment is responsible for the lifecycle management
of these local applications, including installation, pausing, stopping,
configuring and uninstalling of the applications.
■ The management agent can be controlled from a terminal shell or via a
protocol.
■ Bundle packages can be retrieved from the local file system.
