Abstract Internet of Things (IoT) provides data processing and machine learning techniques with access to physical world data through sensors, namely telemetry data. Acquiring sensor data through IoT faces challenges such as connectivity and proper measurement requiring domain-specific knowledge, that results in data quality problems. Data sharing is one solution to this. In this work, we propose IoT Telemetry Data Hub (IoT TeleHub), a general framework and semantic for telemetry data collection and sharing. The framework is principled on abstraction, layering of elements, and extensibility and openness. We showed that while the framework is defined specifically for telemetry data, it is general enough to be mapped to existing IoT platforms with various use cases. Our framework also considers the machine-readable and machine-understandable notion in regard to resource-constrained IoT devices. We also present IoThingsHub, an IoT platform for real-time data sharing based on the proposed framework. The platform demonstrated that the framework could be implemented with existing technologies such as HTTP, MQTT, SQL, NoSQL.
