PACHUBE IS...
A ‘PATCH-BAY’ FOR DEVICES & ENVIRONMENTS
microcontrollers & sensors
building management systems
mobile objects & vehicles wearable & biosensors environmental/pollution virtual environments automation systems
‘PLUMBING’ FOR THE INTERNET OF THINGS • data deluge: dealing with huge numbers of connections,
throughput of realtime data (app, authentication, database)
• interoperability: dealing with different data formats, protocols, ‘standards’, cross-domain, sharing
• application building: making it easy, reducing friction to create
• authentication: granular permissions, created by & for individuals and by & for devices
• performance: scalable, redundant, testing, testing, testing
HORIZONTALITY ENABLES INNOVATION
PACHUBE’S API MAKES IT POSSIBLE
• Enables both storing & sharing state & context data
• Supports multiple protocols & adapters
• Manages & stores all data – not just summaries • Provides for rich, user-extensible meta-data
• Delivers scalable, resilient, always-on services
PACHUBE...
• helps individuals manage data generated by their devices & homes
• helps communities improve environments & quality of life
• helps companies turn networked products into services
• helps society exploit efficiencies derived from extreme connectivity
