There’s about 26 billion Internet of Things (IoT) devices today. All too many of` them have no compatibility with each other. The Open Connectivity Foundation (OCF) wants to fix that with its OCF’s 2.1 specification. This is more than just another standard. At CES 2020, numerous companies showed off their beta OCF compatible devices.
The OCF 2.1 specification is meant to enable the development of vertical IoT devices for both smart homes and smart commercial devices while maintaining fundamental interoperability between device architectures. It’s meant to be scalable from resource-constrained to resource-rich devices.
The OCF architecture is based on the Resource Orientated REST architectural style. It’s also designed to bridge the gap between existing IoT ecosystems. So, it provides detailed implementations for Bluetooth, EnOcean, Zigbee, and Z-wave network protocols.
