OSGi Community Event 2017 Presentation by Kai Hackbath [Bosch Software Innovations GmbH] This talk will introduce some use cases of real world solutions that Bosch Software Innovations customers have implemented for electric vehicle charging stations,heating systems and home appliances using OSGi and EEBus. EEBus is a German initiative that aims to standardize a global language for devices communicating with each other about energy. Bosch Software Innovations implemented the EEBus SHIP and SPINE specifications for its OSGi based ProSyst Gateway Stack. The talk will conclude with a review of the benefits that are achieved with a joint OSGi and EEBus solution.

 ProSyst was one the few software vendors focusing on Connected Home
 The term „Internet of Things“ was used in the scientific research community
 An Open Platform was really scary !!
 Everybody was on the hunt for the Killer Application
 SMS being the prime example
 Investments were not made due to missing business models
 Customers canceled their product launches
 We were offering a solution for a problem that did not exist

8. In 2017 its all about Platforms and Ecosystems

 Its all about Platforms & Ecosystems
 450+ IoT Platforms (Soure: IoT Analystics 2017)
 +90 than in 2016
 Many domains (Energy, IIoT, Smart Home, Healthcare, etc.)
 Wide range of devices
 Starting with simple device like temperature sensors to complex manufacturing machines
 Device abstraction can take away only some of the complexity
 Complexity is increasing due to the fact that domains (e.g. smart home with smart
energy) are merging
 No single solution can handle this complexity

Smart Home, Connected Building, E-Mobility
“The Internet of Things and Smart Grids can only be
successful when devices are able to communicate
seamlessly with one another. EEBUS is opposing the
confusing array of protocols with a global language for
energy – the basis for genuine market progress.”

 We see a growing adoption from vendors of HVAC, white good appliances, smart home energy
management systems, electric vehicles manufacturers
 EEBus enables an increase in efficiency – allowing to use as much as possible self generated
electricity
 EEBus enables the load reduction in the public networks. The charging process can be controlled by
the utility
 EEBus enables overload protection: The electric vehicles and charging equipment will consider the
energy consumption at the entire home. If a e.g. boiler starts, the electricity for charging the vehicle
will be limited to avoid overload.
 OSGi and EEBus are a natural fit – both enable vendor neutral interoperability in e.g. smart homes
