N2  - How can manufacturers or service companies provide better services with connected products, without having acquired a powerful IT infrastructure nor the competences for software development?

Today companies can appeal to a relocated-IT-infrastructure provider, which is called Cloud.

Consequently, they do not have to manage and take care of the safety/security aspect, the updates and the breakdown of the infrastructure internally, as those are all managed by the provider.

It is possible to outsource the development of the software of the connected product to an external company. However, the question now is how fast this company can juggle from one Cloud to another in order to fulfil their clients wishes?

neverMind offers a solution based on a multi-protocols-platform linking the different connected products to a multitude of Clouds without having to redesign the whole communication stack/building block for each change in the Cloud-solution. This is the object of my thesis.

The development follows the V-Model, the first steps to understand the complexity of the project were the realisation of the product technical and architectural specifications. The last step before the Implementation was to design in details the progress and the process of every parts of the platform.

The outcome of the requirements analysis led me to divide the project in two parts:
• a “General Interface” acting as a gateway between the Client-application and “Cloud-modules”
• the “Cloud-modules” themselves.

So far, the specifications are drown up; the General Interface and a client example are coded, as well as a first Cloud-module template.
