[Fiware-general-help] FiWare Context Management / Object Model

[altan at aol.com]

Hi There.


I'm hopeful this mailed can assist in answering my question or forwarding to an appropriate location.


I'm interested in why Fiware decided to use a context management model composed of JSON structures rather than the LWM2M Object/Resource/Instance model?   Is there a document that has some rational for this or perhaps someone reading this knows the history?


Since Fiware is based on NGSI, which is part of OMA, I would have thought that it would have embraced the OMA LWM2M object model definition.


I know there is a Fiware agent that supports LWM2M, but this means that the agent is effectively mapping from the LWM2M object/resource/instance model into the NGSI/Fiware JSON structure.   What value did this bring opposed to supporting the LWM2M object/resource/instance model all the way up and through the Context Broker / Orion?


Thanks in advance for your thoughts and assistance
