- Sensae Console - Platforma de support para serviços baseados em IoTPublication . Cruz, Filipe Miguel Nelas da; Silva, Nuno Alexandre Pinto daToday there are more smart devices than people. The number of devices worldwide is forecast to almost triple from 8.74 billion in 2020 to more than 25.4 billion devices in 2030. The Internet of Things (IoT) is the connection of millions of smart devices and sensors connected to the Internet. These connected devices and sensors collect and share data for use and analysis by many organizations. Some examples of intelligent connected sensors are: GPS asset tracking, parking spots, refrigerator thermostats, soil condition and many others. The limit of different objects that can become intelligent sensors is limited only by our imagination. But these devices are mostly useless without a platform to analyze, store and present the aggregated data into business-oriented information. Recently, several platforms have emerged to address this need and help companies/governments to increase efficiency, cut on operational costs and improve safety. Sadly, most of these platforms are tailor made for the devices that the company offers. This dissertation presents the (Sensae Console) platform that enables and promotes the development of IoT-based business-oriented applications. This platform attempts to be device-neutral, IoT middleware-neutral and provide flexible upstream integration and hosting options while providing a simple and concise data streaming Application Programming Interface (API). Three IoT-based business-oriented applications built on top of the Sensae Console platform are presented as Proof of Concept (PoC) of its capabilities.
