NExt generation Meta Operating systems (NEMO) and Data Space: envisioning the future

Data Spaces are the vehicle for data-driven innovation and great opportunity for European industries. Data spaces will establish a framework for the responsible and ethical use of data, with a focus on data privacy, security, and sovereignty that ensures seamless exchange of data across different sectors, organizations, and member states. Effective delivery of services within Data Spaces mandate for efficient and effective use of available resources across the IoT, edge and cloud continuum, while enforcing security and privacy policies, monitoring infrastructure and transaction mechanisms required to ensure data sovereignty, observability and accountability of data exchanges. Herein, we present the NExt generation Meta Operating systems (NEMO)https://meta-os.eu/ architecture approach embracing Data Spaces, hosting Connectors and services within Data Spaces, delivered as extensible element of the metaOS architecture. We also propose a Fiware-based Industrial Data Space Connector for NEMO enabling to organise and valorise large pools of data, as a significant cornerstone of data-driven innovation.
