Abstract
The Internet of Things (IoT) is one of the most rapidly emerging technologies. It is observed that while many devices/machines get connected in an application, it is a challenge for the IoT application designer to keep the application scalable. Scalability is the ability of a device/application to adapt to the changes in the environment and meet the changing needs in the future. The paper presents a layered IoT architecture and discusses issues related to the scalability of each layer. The best open-source technologies are explored. A novel system architecture of a scalable IoT framework is conceptualized in this paper. An application covering vehicle accident reporting is designed with the proposed framework. The application is tested in real-time using the standalone hardware and its ability to report the incidents is confirmed. The scalability metrics of the proposed framework are evaluated and the results are reported.
