RAINBOW - 3-year (2020-2022) Research and Innovation Project, funded under the EU Horizon 2020 framework programme. Its aim is to design and develop an open, trusted fog computing platform facilitating the deployment, orchestration and management of scalable, heterogeneous and secure IoT services and cross-cloud apps (i.e, microservices).
RAINBOW Objectives:
Objective I: Provide an open and trusted fog computing reference architecture and highly relevant industry use-cases that facilitate the design, development and orchestration of scalable, heterogeneous, secure and privacy-preserving IoT services and cross-cloud applications, incorporating technological and business requirements coming from the industry, the research and academic community.
Objective II: Provide a set of innovative mechanisms and middleware tools for IoT orchestration, data collection and decentralized analytics that guarantees network security, data protection, identity management and resource integrity. The key characteristic of the middleware will be the embedded intelligence and remote attestation mechanisms for establishing trust and QoS requirements while coping with performance and network uncertainties.
Objective III: Enable secure and efficient data storage and processing at the fog and edge layer and facilitate the extraction of high-level analytic insights by introducing novel decentralized algorithms and open APIs.
Objective IV: Prove the applicability, usability, effectiveness and value of the RAINBOW integrated framework, models and mechanisms in industrial, real-life trustworthy services, applications and standards demonstrating and stress-testing the RAINBOW artefacts, methodologies and services under pragmatic conditions against a pre-defined set of use cases.
Objective V: Ensure wide communication and scientific dissemination of the innovative RAINBOW results to the industry, research and international community, to realize exploitation and business planning of the RAINBOW design models, software kits and orchestration mechanisms, to identify end-users and potential customers, as well as to contribute specific project results to relevant open source communities.
Rainbow will prove the applicability in various domains - which are safety-critical and
require guaranteed extra-functional properties - in 3 Use Cases:
- Human-Robot Collaboration in Industrial Ecosystems
- Digital Transformation of Urban Mobility
- Power Line Surveillance via Swarm of Drones
