[Fiware-testbed] Cloud Proxy for TestBed #2

[Miguel Carrillo]

Hi Henk,

I would expect an answer from Stefano, as the leader of WP10 his opinon
is very important here.

I personally think that this makes complete sense. If we fit  this in
our demos, a physical device would give a touch of reality that always
causes a good impression in the audience.

Half way betweeen our internal work and the Open Innovation Lab we have
the Use Cases. Depending on the cost, producing a limited set of units
could be good.  If the cost is too high, then we should ask the Use Case
Projects (the ones in phase 2) if the are going to use them. The
question is , your offer to provide a limited set of boxes comprise a
unit per UC? (there are 6 UCs in phase 2)

As regards the so-called Open Innovation Lab, we should ask Stefano or
Juanjo (both whether it is a good idea and who's footing the bill)

Heppy Christmas to you all !!

Best regards,

Miguel

As the CP only makes sense when located at the edge of the public network (home, car, ...), we can't propose remote accesses BUT we can provide HW boxes as instances.
