oneM2M Cloud Vendor Independent
oneM2M is Cloud Provider independent: From Fragmentation to Standards and decoupling Device, Cloud, and Application by Open Interfaces.
oneM2M addresses Edge/Fog computing in a deployment where the T8 Interface is exposed to the IN-CSE, therefore there is a “loose coupling” between the Edge/Fog Node and the Underlying Network.
In some Edge/Fog scenarios, an oneM2M Edge/Fog Node can exchange with the 3GPP Underlying Network parameters to be used for optimizing the Data Traffic over the Underlying Network for a set of Field Domain Nodes hosted on UEs. As a result, oneM2M System can avoid the need for the IN-CSE to process Data for the Field Domain Nodes. Figure 9.4.2.1‑1 illustrates the high-level illustration for the loosely coupled Edge/Fog Computing with 3GPP T8 API. The Edge/Fog Node retrieves underlining Network information in a particular area from a SCEF via the IN-CSE and adjusts Data processing/transfer for the Field Domain Nodes.
