Abstract
We live in an Internet-connected world, where tens of billions of smart entities are constantly sending information, the Internet of Things (IoT). In some cases, the communication of data messages is straightforward. Devices are connected in the same ecosystem, where it is pretty easy to agree on the communication data format. However, when devices have to communicate information to outside environments, each manufacturer defines its own data communication format. In the IoT domain, these cases are not covered extensively, and information homogenization must be done. In this thesis, we propose an ontology, an abstract interpretation of domain concepts and data, aiming to provide a solution for data heterogeneity in the domain. For this regard, we also propose a working environment where operators can manipulate all the system’s information, developed using a microservices architecture.
