Having previously introduced my thoughts about Yellow Jeep Architecture Users and Instrumenting the Jeep  we can begin to explore what functionality should exist in the Yellow Jeep Cloud. Here are some functions I have considered:

Basic Yellow Jeep Cloud functions:

• data ingest
• data storage
• event processing
• historical analysis, trending
• supervisory control functions
• historical route mapping
• authentication
• authorization
• user registration / profile management
• user password/credential management
• API security

Of course, in keeping with modern standards in the API Economy  cloud functions would all be exposed in the Yellow Jeep API, with capabilities such as these:

• ingest data
• ingest audio
• ingest video
• request raw data
• request data summary
• request calculated data
• request supervisory control data
• request video stream/segment
• request audio stream/segment
• authentication
• authorization
• user management

What functionality should I add?  What capabilities do you think should existing in the Yellow Jeep API?

Roll on Yellow Jeep Journey!
