ERASPAAS - Internet of Things
Cloud computing is the set of hardware and software as groups of remote servers that exchange data to serve as centralized data storage and computing resources for online access.
Eraspaas is a cloud computing software platform that is designed for easy access from embedded systems. It serves for an Internet of Things that include devices that can access online services provided by Eraspaas cloud platform.
The first major implementation of Eraspaas was done by a healthcare device manufacturer, where digital healthcare devices were connected to Eraspaas service platform for users who wished to track their health readings and securely monitor their daily, weekly or monthly reports.
This required Eraspaas to be oriented for easy access from system programming language such as C/C++ or PLC*, while also maintaining consistent ease for other programming languages such as JAVA, .Net, PHP and JavaScript. This availability of service to a wide range of technologies allows the platform to be leveraged for all kinds of digital devices, including mobile phones, digital cameras, EPABX systems or industrial machineries.
Note: *PLC (Programmable Logic Controllers) integration with REST action service is in experimental stage if you wish to collaborate with us on the research you can contact us at rest4plc@eraspaas.com
The Eraspaas cloud platform provides a secured framework but without technical limitations, to allow your wildest imaginations to take shape. Besides as major percentage of the web interface is automatically created, you can focus on functional enhancements that truly add value to the service you offer with your devices.
The Eraspaas service is accessible through SOAP and REST (both JSON and XML based) protocols so calling the service requires just formatting string and passing it with standard web request. And string formatting can be further simplified using various already available libraries. Besides the service aspect of the platform it also automatically creates web user interfaces that can be browsed from personal computers, digital notebook or smartphone devices supporting all possible resolutions.
Register your domain at Eraspaas and configure solution, entities and relation to store information.
To enable your devices to interact with Eraspaas you need to understand the basic data structures present in the platform and how you can configure your own data structures. This information is elaborated in Eraspaas System and Solutions guide. Besides understanding the building block elements you would need to know how to call Eraspaas web service from embedded system and other software, this is detailed in the Eraspaas Programming Guide.
