The Next Computer
CAP TABLES OF CONTENTS The FI-WARE Program
• Goal: capture opportunities derived from the new wave of digitalization of life and businesses
• Strategy: Build an ecosystem that will work as catalyst for capturing the opportunities. Lead standardization in Smart Cities and IoT (Internet of Things)
• Pillars:
– : a generic, open standard platform which serve the needs of developers in multiple domains
– : a meeting point where innovation takes place, an opportunities can be incubated
– : a program that funds developers and entrepreneurs, and ignites roll-out of the ecosystem
– : the suite of tools easing deployment and operation of FI-WARE instance nodes
• Global footprint: open to regions sharing the ambition

• Avoid vendor lock-in: – Standard Southbound APIs for sensor providers.
– Standard Northbound APIs offered to applications.
– Portability among platform providers.
• Larger community of developers – True innovation.
– Lower costs.
• No one particular standard is enough – Modularity for improved flexibility
– Enable a variety of business models.
– Integration with standard open data platform.

CAP TABLES OF CONTENTS How it All Fits Together
Being “Smart” first requires being “Aware” • Implementing a Smart App requires gathering and managing context
information
• Context information refers to the values of attributes characterizing entities relevant to the app
Bus • Location • No. passengers • Driver • Licence plate • Etc.
Citizen • Name-Surname • Birthday • Preferences • Location • ToDo list • Etc.
Shop • Location • Business name • Franchise • Offerings • Etc.
Context Information
CAP TABLES OF CONTENTS How it All Fits Together
Managing Context Using FI-WARE: • The FIWARE Context Broker GE implements the OMA NGSI-9/10 API: a simple
yet powerful standard API for managing context information
• The FIWARE NGSI API is RESTful: any web/backend programmer is familiar with these types of services
