Application of the FIWARE GEs in IntelliFood

Concept

As our sensor-network based applications collect data and one of the uses of these data is checking them under conditions and sending alarms or notifications, so we aimed to use the Orion Context Broker and Complex Event Processing Enablers in the first stage. This will be the first project where we used these tools go live. So far, pilot exercises tested on what they know. But there are many other FIWARE components what we have already reviewed and we found one that we want to try. We hope that this will also soon be available. For example the Open Data theory is very close to us so we would like to use it. The Big Data tools are also very interesting and we gather the knowledge about them.

Details

There are two Generic Enablers applied in the project:

• Complex Event Processing (CEP) - IBM Proactive Technology Online
• Publish/Subscribe Context Broker - Orion Context Broker

The application collecting the sensors’ data is connected to an Orion Context Broker. The sensor continuously bombards the broker and the data get in the persistent store based on MongoDB.

The Complex Event Processing GE is in connection with Orion GE and it will help us to explore the warnings, failures, errors, extreme measurement values, the adequacy of the data associated with the time created in our system.

We use the Cygnus broker as well that is a modul of Orion (Cygnus, the Orion Performance Enhancing Proxy).

Because of the big data amount derived from the intelligent measurement we apply the Cosmos broker. Thie choice was effective. In he next period we will searching for the integration methods of the BigData Analysis - Cosmos GE.
