What is BS EN 50090-6-1 - Webservice interface ?
BS EN 50090-6-1 is a European Standard that defines a standardized web service based interface between Home and Building HBES Open Communication System and other information technology (IT) systems. The standardized interface is encapsulated in a gateway device, the HBES Gateway, which is able to communicate with both the Home and Building HBES Open Communication System and the connected IT systems. The HBES Gateway implements a set of encoding standards as well as various message exchange protocols to enable remote access to the Home and Building HBES Open Communication System via the Internet or another wide area network (WAN).
Who is BS EN 50090-6-1 - Webservice interface for ?
BS EN 16955 on webservice interface is useful for:
- Electronic device manufacturers
- Software engineers
- Webservice providers
Why should you use BS EN 50090-6-1 – Webservice interface ?
Home and Building HBES Open Communication System is dedicated to the control and monitoring of networked building automation systems (BASs). Currently, Home and Building HBES Open Communication System has limited capability to communicate with other systems, as a result of the use of different protocols, incompatibility or various other restrictions. For the integration of Home and Building HBES Open Communication System and for solving specific problem scenarios, customized solutions are currently on offer. A standard interface between the HBES world and the remaining systems would however constitute a common link to bridge the gap and integrate Home and Building HBES Open Communication System into systems like the traditional Internet or the emerging Internet of Things (IoT). BS EN 50090-6-1 provides an introduction of HBES wed service, vocabulary structure, HBES web interface OBIX, and HBES information model. BS EN 50090-6-1 a standard bridge between Home and Building HBES Open Communication System and IT systems based on Web services (WSs) is currently missing to support upcoming use case scenarios.
