Communication Over the Internet of Things Using RESTful APIs, Use Case: Sensor Data Monitoring in Cloud Computing Environment 2009180201
Internet of Things (IoT) is continuously drawing attention in the field of modern Information and Communication Technologies (ICT). Its basic characteristic is its ability to combine various different technologies of software (e.g. applications), hardware (e.g. microcontrollers, sensors) and the Internet, in such a way that the result can substantially improve people’s everyday lives. In the center of all these fields that IoT brings together, lay concepts like Data, Communication, Interaction and Data Security, while the latter becomes a major concept in the field of IoT, since the nature of the data coming through most of these systems are sensitive and sometimes personal. The topic focused in this thesis is the Communication in an IoT system with the help of REST Architecture, due to which the easy design Application Programmable Interfaces (APIs) is possible. Using these, we can achieve remote Communication and above all, transfer data over the Internet between the different components of not only an IoT, but any system. Moreover, RESTful APIs will be developed to present the advantages of using REST architecture in a cloud computing environment used to support the Openstack platform.
