FI-WARE Generic Enablers (GEs)
 A FI-WARE Generic Enabler (GE) = set of general-purpose
platform functions available through well-defined APIs
 FI-WARE GE Specifications are open (public and royalty-free)
 FI-WARE GE implementation (FI-WARE GEi):
 Platform product that implements a given GE Open Spec
 There might be multiple compliant GEis of each GE Open Spec
 Available FI-WARE GEis published on the FI-WARE Catalogue
 The FI-WARE project will deliver at least one reference
implementation of FI-WARE GEs:
• Based upon results of previous R&D projects
• Publicly available Technical Roadmap updated in every release
• Licensed with no costs within the FI-PPP program
• Committed to commercialize implementation under FRAND
conditions elsewhere or license it as open source otherwise
5
Agile development of FI-WARE Releases
FI-WARE follows an Agile process
• Each FI-WARE GEis have a Product Backlog
• FI-WARE GEis made available on FI-WARE Testbed
( OIL) then continuously updated
• 1st Availability of FI-WARE GEis synchronized with
Major Releases
• Epics and Features described on the FI-WARE wiki
• Planning documented in FI-WARE Technical
Roadmap
UC Trials able to issue enhancement requests
through the proper FI-WARE GEi support tracker
• Enhancement request will be considered and
incorporated in the roadmap if/when suitable
FI-WARE GEi availability and adoption by UC Trials
followed up through shared cockpit

FI-WARE Instances
Future Internet Applications run on top of “FI-WARE Instances” that are
built by “FI-WARE Instance Providers” upon:
• selection of FI-WARE GEis (products) from the FI-WARE Catalogue
• assembly of selected FI-WARE GEis with proprietary added-value products

FI-WARE OIL (Open Innovation Lab)
 The FI-WARE Open Innovation Lab will be a case
example of a FI-WARE Instance. It:
• Provides Cloud hosting capabilities so third parties
can run experimental Future Internet Applications
and test them
• Incorporates a number of Generic Enablers “as a
Service” exporting well-defined APIs
• Will be operated under central control and be
accessible from a dedicated website.
Connected to Common FI-WARE Capacity
infrastructure for trials
 Developer contests during 2nd half of 2013 and
beginning of 2014
 100 M€ of funding for experimentation by
developer SMEs in phase 3 of the FI-PPP

Launch of the FI-WARE OIL
Launch of the FI-WARE OIL is planned at the end
of July 2013
All information relevant to a given FI-WARE GEi
or packages of FI-WARE GEis (e.g., Cloud) will
be available on the FI-WARE Catalogue
Every FI-WARE GEi will have a specific support
tracker associated to it where questions, bug
reports and enhancement requests can be issued
A FI-WARE OIL general tracker will be setup to
cope with more general matters (e.g., creation of
accounts, issues accessing or using the
environment, etc)
