IoT Cloud Services: Some Technology & Education Challenges

1. Digitization, Cognitive Understanding, and Servitization of the Physical World

Digitized Physical World = Sensors + Humans + Machines + Natural Resources

New Discovery Enablement and Industrial Know-How Acquisition

Discrete Buy-and-Sell Products ==> Contract-Based Connected Services

Service Maturity: Monitoring -> Proactive Management -> Cognitive Optimization

2. API and Data Service Economy

Distributed Computing + Distributed BigData = API-Defined IoT/IoE Services

“Algorithms + Data Structures = Programs” (by Niklaus Wirth)

Computer ==> Server ==> Datacenter Cloud ==> MCU+Edge+Cloud

Programming & Management in Small ==> Programming & Management in Large

Software componentization ==> (Business) “Service API” centric composition

Standalone Program ==> Web Application ==> Services+Microservices Solution

Horizontal PaaS/SaaS ==> Domain-Specific PaaS/SaaS

Agile Service API DevOps, Continuous Integration, and Continuous Delivery

Domain-Specific OPEN Data, Tools, Platforms, and Benchmarks
