UnderstandingNon-technical

GeneralBroad audience

NormativePrescriptiveComplianceTechnicalSpecificTechnical audience• Build consensus on key architecture concepts & models

• Raise awareness on important concerns• Provide high-level guidance on how to address these concerns• Present important ideas correctly and clearly• Accessible and useful to technical generalists

June 3, 2016



• First major deliverable by the IIC Technology Working Group

• 110-page document published and released to public July 2015, Version 2 Underway

• Goal: To align the industry to a common end-to-end IIoT reference architecture with clearly defined constituent components and interfaces between them so that:

• Vendors can deliver interchangeable IIoT components that are interoperable with those provided by other venders;

• Customers can use the reference architecture as a blueprint, based on which to build and/or select technologies and solutions from venders for their IIoT implementation.

• Requirements addressed:

• Concise and comprehensive description of the end-to-end IIoT architecture for the industrial internet industry space

• Clear definition of constituent components and interfaces between the components

• High-level functional requirements for each of the components

• Identification of existing or to be developed technologies for these components

• Inspired and validated by core use cases

• Implemented and tested in an IIC testbedJune 3, 2016
