Asset offerings can be organised into groups/categories in a hierarchical fashion to allow for an easy navigation and discovery of them. Metadata define characteristics and properties of assets (metadata could include also way to exchange / access datasets) They may also be inherited from a higher level in a category hierarchy. The module lets the asset providers be able to define the technical description of the assets they own. Module Description This component provides functionalities to publish, search and browse for different assets: IoT data and analytics services. Asset offerings can be organised into groups/categories in a hierarchical fashion to allow for an easy navigation and discovery of them. Metadata define characteristics and properties of assets (metadata could include also way to exchange / access datasets) They may also be inherited from a higher level in a category hierarchy. The module lets the asset providers be able to define the technical description of the assets they own. The initial users and testers of this module will consist of the pilot participants that are able to publish metadata of their data and data analytics tools. Also, open source data and open source generic data analytics tools will be made available and accessible to download. A common API specification has been defined in deliverable D2.2 specifically for the market place that should be used by the rest of the components of the architecture to interact with the marketplace. Main functionalities Marketplace encapsulates the functionality of the IDS Broker, IDS App Store and Clearing house: • Metadata-registry for the Data and apps (neither the data or the apps are stored) • Facilitates the contract definition/negotiation between data consumers and data producers • Facilitate and keep tracks of the exchange of payments (Log registry) Requirements Mapping 13012, from 13047 up to 13065 storeAppMetadata Set metadata for an app in the store storeDataMetadata Set metadata for a data-source in the store Data Analytics Tools Data analytics tools will be the integrated apps in app store Unified Knowledge Base Access to unified knowledge base is provided by this component. The Knowledge base is stored in a federated datastore. Furthermore, for the cases where all the data is stored in a single central database, the marketplace will be directly linked to that specific database instead of to the whole unified knowledge base.
