Abstract:
The digital universe is growing at significant rates in recent years. One of the main responsible for this sentence is the Internet of Things (IoT), which requires middlewares capable of handling this increase of data volume in real-time. Solutions modeled at software, hardware and/or architecture level present limitations to handle such load, facing a scalability problem in the IoT scope. In this context, this article presents a model named Eliot (Elasticity-driven Internet of Things) which combines both cloud and high performance computing to address the IoT scalability problem in EPCglobal-compliant architectures. Based on the Eliot model, we developed a prototype that can run as a plugin solution together with any current EPCglobal-compliant middleware. The results are encouraging, presenting significant performance gains when comparing both elastic and non-elastic executions.
