Open CloudEdgeIoT Platform Uptake in Large Scale Cross-Domain Pilots

Project description

Increasing Europe’s competitiveness in cloud-edge Internet of things solutions

Through the spread of digitalisation, the Internet of things (IoT) has become increasingly crucial to the everyday functioning of logistics chains, infrastructure, business and more, driving novel solutions and innovations that benefit a wide range of services and sectors. In this context, the EU-funded O-CEI project aims to enhance Europe’s competitiveness and strategic autonomy in this sector, recognising the global significance of open cloud-edge IoT. It plans to achieve this by supporting eight pilots in key sectors through the introduction of novel technologies, frameworks and improved data sharing, leveraging shared developments to strengthen each pilot and maximise its potential.

Objective

O-CEI overarching goal is to pilot the imperative of accelerating the uptake and upscaling of innovative Cloud-Edge-IoT solutions, strengthening Europe’s competitiveness and open strategic autonomy by orchestrating cross-domain data sharing, minimising energy footprint, stimulating multi-sided marketplaces, and promoting open standards for virtualisation and interoperability. For doing so, O-CEI will feed with such innovative technologies, and a comprehensive framework, to eight multidimensional real-world pilots framed in key strategic sectors: electricity grid, electromobility, software-defined vehicles, agrifood and agriculture, logistics and urban environments. It will swiftly create and implement innovative solutions across the cloud continuum; and effectively address the needs of existing and emerging individual and cross-sector business value chains. By designing blueprints and providing utilities beyond the SotA, O-CEI will help project stakeholders (and 32 Open Call awardees) to achieve challenging objectives. All pilots are formed by technical and stakeholder actors covering the necessary value chains, having an outstanding cross-domain unifying thread: energy flexibility.
