Pachube and POI

Hello,

During our meeting January 26 I agreed to do some research on Pachube as 
a basis for understanding the needs/possible synergies between this 
platform and the POI WG work.

The specific area we would like to better understand is how to manage 
the frequent requests for information, and frequent updates to 
information in a database. I thought that the requirements we have for 
objects which are changing locations over time might have something in 
common with what Pachube does.

I want to introduce those of you who are not familiar with it to the 
system.

 From the home page:

Pachube is a data brokerage platform for the internet of things, 
managing millions of datapoints per day from thousands of individuals, 
organisations & companies around the world. Pachube's powerful and 
scalable infrastructure enables you to build 'Internet of Things' 
products and services, and store, share & discover realtime sensor, 
energy and environment data from objects, devices & buildings around the 
world.

I suggest that you study:

What are your thoughts?
