WHAT CAN I DO WITH WIRECLOUD?

Data/Applications Visualization and Mashup

Perspectives

• From the developer perspective:

– Use web technologies for easily developing mashable web components (widgets)

– Integrate web mashups with backend services (e.g. support for pub/sub, “connectors”to a number of FIWARE GEs, etc.)

• From the user perspective:

– Develop application mashups: integrate heterogeneous data, application logic, and UIweb components to create value added instant applications.

• Without the need of programing skills (e.g. end users, infomediaries, etc.)

• Fostering the reuse and shareability of widgets, mashups, etc.

Configurable dashboards... and much more

• Basic features

– Wiring and support for channel creation

– Preferences

– Context

• HTTP proxy
