1. The history behind the Mexican FIWARE Node... ICT 2015 Hugo Estrada, Miguel Gonzalez

2. The inception The creation of the Mexican FIWARE-Lab Node is the result of a successful cooperation plan between México and the European Commission.

3. The Mexican association with FIWARE of the FI-PPP program One of the main areas of interest of INFOTEC, Tec de Monterrey and other key actors in ICT in Mexico is the internet at infrastructure level (clusters and communications) and at application level (web applications, cloud computing, Big Data). As a strategic alliance, we promote an association with the EU with the objective of using the FIWARE Platform to capture new opportunities derived from Future Internet technologies. How to make this idea a reality in a non-European country? ¡Cooperation!

4. As a result of negotiations with European Commission and CONACYT, we created the Mexico FIWARE-Lab node, which is part of the FIWARE infrastructure. To do this, the Future Internet National Laboratory was created which holds the FIWARE-Lab node. Mexican FIWARE-Lab The Mexican association with FIWARE of the FI-PPP program

5. Mexico FIWARE Lab Node as the first instance of the FIWARE Platform in Latin- America.

6. Key steps in the creation of the mexican FIWARE-Lab We executed an collaboration action with FIWARE experts to design the first version of Mexico FIWARE-Lab node. The node was implemented in a initial hardware infrastructure of INFOTEC consisting of 100 processing cores.

11. Key steps in the creation of the mexican FIWARE-Lab Tier 3: Redundant capacity components + Dual- powered equipment's and multiple uplinks, guaranteeing 99.982 availability. One of the key process of tuning is the creation of two implementation of FIWARE-Lab, one node dedicated to experimental purposes and one productive node based on the availability and security of our Data Center Tier III.

16. Based on FIWARE ACCELERATOR PROGRAMME of the European Commission, we propose the creation of a Mexican funding program that allow the participation of public and private organizations to support the Mexican entities to generate solutions with FIWARE. The next steps

17. 17 The relevant phases of the Accelerator Programme Funding for entrepreneurs developing relevant applications using FIWARE Direct funding MentoringCoachingSupportNetworkingIntegration In place of centralize the training and support to FIWARE, we will create a funding programme for companies giving support activities to FIWARE The next steps Research and Innovation Actions Support Actions

18. The next steps In this year, we propose the acquisition of the following components to extend the performance of the LaNIF: Sensor networks (board + sensors, controllers, actuators, access points, mounting kits, etc.) Adding 272 cores for FIWARE Cluster = TOTAL of 976 cores
