A unified framework for real-time streaming and processing of IoT data

The emergence of the Internet of Things (IoT) is introducing a new era to the realm of computing and technology. The proliferation of sensors and actuators that are embedded in things enables these devices to understand the environments and respond accordingly more than ever before. Additionally, it opens the space to unlimited possibilities for building applications that turn this sensation into big benefits, and within various domains. From smart cities to smart transportation and smart environment and the list is quite long. However, this revolutionary spread of IoT devices and technologies rises big challenges. One major challenge is the diversity in IoT vendors that results in data heterogeneity. This research tackles this problem by developing a data management tool that normalizes IoT data. Another important challenge is the lack of practical IoT technology with low cost and low maintenance. That has often limited large-scale deployments and mainstream adoption. This work utilizes open-source data analytics in one unified IoT framework in order to address this challenge. What is more, billions of connected things are generating unprecedented amounts of data from which intelligence must be derived in real-time. This unified framework processes real-time streams of data from IoT. A questionnaire that involved participants with background knowledge in IoT was conducted in order to collect feedback about the proposed framework. The aspects of the framework were presented to the participants in a form of demonstration video describing the work that has been done. Finally, using the participants’ feedback, the contribution of the developed framework to the IoT was discussed and presented.
