The Smart City FabricReekoh is the data layer for smart cities; the cohesive

fabric that enables the open flow and integration of data across use-case, vendor and infrastructure.

Reekoh’s “Smart City Fabric” data platform is built to reduce complexity, increase interoperability and enable solutions from early stage trials through to production for smart city customers, vendors and solution providers. Taking an open, vendor-agnostic integration approach to connecting and orchestrating data workflows that underpin unique smart city projects means that a return on investment can be made across the full life cycle of solutions.

Smart Cities are often characterised by small and isolated projects with siloed data separated from business processes and applications.

The technology-aspects of smart cities are layered and complex, with decision makers who are looking at implementing solutions being faced with a fragmented landscape of devices, networks, security models and end-to-end applications all attempting to deliver valuable and effective outcomes for stakeholders.

A “Smart City as a Platform” takes advantage of common, foundational elements provided within city infrastructure and technology, and presents them in a way that allows for rapid enablement of integrated solutions and services.

City as a Platform

VendorAgnostic

Agile

FutureProof

API-First

OpenFramework

RapidEnablement

Begin delivery of Smart City and IoT strategies based on

ready access to available technologies at time of

need, but with a proven model for new technology

adoption in the future.

Procure best-of-breed solutions from relevant

vendors with independent capability to provide full

interoperability and freedom of data movement.

Enable agile technology and vendor adoption using repeatable integrations, templates and modules, reducing start-up costs and time and focusing on business outcomes

Reekoh’s Smart City FabricGiven that the traditional vendor engagement model is being disrupted in smart cities due to the high-degree of specialist IoT solutions, managing the city data flow from device to system is a critical piece of the modern city architecture. Creating a Smart City Fabric which can be built upon by relevant vendors in key solution threads is important to maintain a focus on data insights rather than applications and technology.

Elements and vendors displayed here are a subset of the capabilities and supported vendors on the Reekoh Smart City Fabric. New integrations can be rapidly developed using the Reekoh Open Plugin Framework.

Reekoh CapabilitiesThe underlying Platform is an enterprise-grade, highly scalable and available message routing system that securely ingests, transports and delivers data between devices and applications. Some of the Smart City relevant capabilities are:

All aspects of the platform are accessible via RESTful API, which allows users to build custom applications on top of Reekoh core functionality, including orchestration of automated provisioning marketplaces

Platform API

Future Capabilities • A modular architecture allowing for rapid development and deployment of future capabilities

• Current roadmap includes - IoT device/data billing and monetisation, - Blockchain data provenance cryptocurrency business models, - Support for satellite-based LPWAN, - and more

Open Plugin Framework • Marketplace of pre-built and maintained integration Plugins

• Open framework for rapidly developing new Plugins to required or proprietary systems

• Integrate with all components of IoT solutions regardless of vendor or use case; device, protocol, coms network, application, cloud vendor, security model, visualisation, analysis, storage and more

Rapid Time-Series Data Visualisation

• Build rapid data visualisations based on stored data, using a wide range of visualisation types (e.g. charts, gauges, maps, tables and more)

• Share dashboards with other internal stakeholders for ease of access to data, or external public users for open data consumption

Security • Create and manage X.509 Certificates for deployment to devices and security/encryption of device-to-cloud communications

• Whitelist IP Addresses that can connect to the platform for better network security

Environment Portability • Run the Smart City Fabric in numerous cloud environment options; Reekoh Cloud, private cloud, independent data centre, etc.

• Future extension to “edge devices” to optimise decision-making capabilities and improve time-to-action

More modules are being added over time to bring additional core functionality to customers
