Architectural design of IoT-cloud computing integration platform

To deal with issues mention above, an integration layer between the IoT and cloud computing is required. [...]in this study propose an architectural design of IoT-cloud software platform for IoT and cloud computing integration. [...]the sensor data are received by IoT cloud platform and stored to its database systemfor a more complex data processing as well asfurther data access by users or developed applications. Figure 4 illustrates the flow of authentication for both RESTful HTTP. Since the RESTful HTTP is a stateless protocol, therefore, for each sensor data transmission, it should always contains the token credential located in the HTTP header part. 5.3.Data Management The sensor data received by cloud platform should then be stored on a database management system (DBMS) for further processing and access. Furthermore, a sensor data can be transmitted in the form of streaming ranging from daily period to a near real time fashion which may leads to a huge volume of sensor data storage. [...]DBMS with a less strict schema rules combined with fast writing performance is suitable for IoT data storage purposes.
