Abstract
In one aspect, a request is sent to a device for a device descriptor that describes custom interfaces. The custom interfaces may be expressed according to a defined data structure. The device descriptor that describes the custom interfaces is received at a gateway. An interface agnostic application is executed to translate the device descriptor to the custom interfaces for consumption of the data described by the custom interfaces.
