Do I understand this correctly? It's exposing the functionalites of IoT devices as advertised services (IoTaaS?), allowing them to be linked together (e.g. the timer from the microwave and the lightswitch), and provides an intuitive interface that, hopefully, end users might utilize.
Exposing the IoT functions as services seems brilliant to me (has it been discussed before?). What will we end up with? A overly redundent mess of IoT functions (e.g., how many devices have clocks)? Or maybe an IoT server on each home/office/car/phone (or more likely, in the cloud) that provides a central source for basic functions like timers, monitors, etc.?
