[Fiware-iot] General idea for Actuation

[Fermín Galán Márquez]

Dear Tarek,

Not sure in which context are you refering to actuation, but, from a NGSI perspective, the vision is the following (very well exposed by Juanjo during FI-CORE kickoff and summarized in http://www.slideshare.net/flopezaguilar/introduction-to-fiware-open-ecosystem, slide 20).

The idea is to use NGSI updates with "side effects". So, sensors with actuation capability will expose update context NGSI operation service for given context element (e.g. "lamp.status") so when that context element is updated ("lamp.status = on") that causes the desired actuaion (the lamp is turn on).

In some sense, this is analogous as SNMP works, when set operations in given OIDs allow to reboot a network device or reset an statistics counter. In this sense, our aim is that NGSI will become in "the SNMP of the IoT world".

Best regards,

Hello Tobias,

I would like to get a better idea on what the goal(s) is in terms of actuation. Are going to address autonomous actuation, as a result of a particular event? e.g. if X and Y happen, then do Z.

Best regards,
Tarek
