Abstract

The emergency of cloud computing and Generic Enablers (GEs) as the building blocks of Future Internet (FI) applications highlights new requirements in the area of cloud services. Though, due to the current restrictions of various certification standards related with privacy and safety of health related data, the utilization of cloud computing in such area has been in many instances unlawful. Here, we focus on demonstrating a " software to data " provisioning solution to propose a mapping of FI application use case requirements to software specifications (using GEs). The aim is to establish a provider to consumer cloud setting wherein no sensitive data will be exchanged but it will reside at the back-end site. We propose a prototype architecture that covers the cloud management layer and the operational features that manage data and Internet of Things devices. To show a real life scenario, we present the use case of the diabetes care and a FI application that includes various GEs.
