Abstract

Methods and systems provide management, monitoring, and onboarding of a device, a service, and/or an application in the context of the Internet of Things (IoT). Data may be acquired data for IoT member devices for interpretation. Methods and systems support a variety of devices, including commodity hardware, various protocols, data formats, and data representation. A device adapter package may include a reusable portion and a device-specific portion. At least part of the device adapter package may be stored in a repository. A system may generate adapter code. A target device to be managed and/or on-boarded to an IoT may be configured using the adapter package and adapter code. The adapter code may be provided to the target device, facilitating authentication and registration of the device. The system may then register the device and generate credentials. Upon verification of the device, the device may be onboarded and managed.
