Abstract
Event-driven Internet of Things (IoT) abstraction using rules is disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a network computing device that provides an IoT management (IoTM) service is communicatively coupled to an IoT device. The IoTM service receives multiple rules, each of which comprises an event identifier that identifies an event that the IoT device is capable of emitting, and an action identifier that identifies an action to be performed by the IoTM service (e.g., a command to be issued to the IoT device or an operation to be performed by the IoTM service). Upon receiving a first event emitted by the IoT device, the IoTM service identifies a first rule of the plurality of rules based on a first event identifier of the first rule that matches the first event. The IoTM service then executes a first action, wherein a first action identifier of the first rule identifies the first action.
