Abstract
A system and method are described for managing attributes in an IoT system. For example, one embodiment of a machine-readable medium comprises program code stored thereon which, when executed by a machine, causes the machine to perform the operations of: specifying a plurality of attributes for a corresponding plurality of items of data managed in an Internet of Things (IoT) device and/or an IoT service; associating one or more ancillary attributes with one or more of the plurality of attributes, the ancillary attributes to specify attribute configurations and/or interdependencies between one or more of the plurality of attributes; evaluating the one or more ancillary attributes to ensure compliance with predefined constraints associated with the plurality of items of data; generating an indication of compliance if the one or more ancillary attributes are in compliance with the predefined constraints; and generating an indication of non-compliance if the one or more ancillary attributes are not in compliance with the predefined constraints.
