IoT or the Internet of Things is the next phase of the digital revolution. There are billions of daily objects that will be connected by 2020.
Connected objects can simplify daily life and improve individuals well-being, at home, at the office, with the family or within any other community.

By encouraging the transition from the Internet of Things to the Internet of Services, La Poste, DOCAPOSTE and their partners make it possible for users to have new experiences and create new opportunities for companies.

La Poste digital hub as a booster for business…
Universal operator for exchanges and trusted third-parties, Le Groupe La Poste works from its digital BtoB subsidiary DOCAPOSTE and its dedicated platform, the La Poste digital hub, to accelerate the transition from the Internet of things to the Internet of services.

The digital hub is the leading platform for managing connected solutions and targets both individuals and companies.

For companies and administrations, the digital hub is used to create, test and develop innovative solutions rapidly through connected objects and service bricks.

For individuals, the digital hub simplifies their daily life by enabling them to integrate their objects and benefit from digital and human services around the same objects.

Digital hub advantages rely on 2 pillar:

1. Openness & Interface: high compatibility of the solution, the digital hub can interconnect with all types of objects and services.

2. Security & Confidentiality: the digital hub is based on a 'privacy by design' architecture on HDS (Health Data Hosting) certified storage solutions, to enable each user to control the use of their personal information and share it with chosen third-parties.

The digital hub solution is:

• Complete and upgradable: it provides all the functional bricks required to implement a service (subscription, management of offers and services for individuals, etc.), and combine rapid implementation and robust operation.

• Easy to use: it provides design and development interfaces for services and management of the associated offers, enabling rapid appropriation by non-developers.

• Shared and proposed in SaaS mode: the companies and administrations are invoiced on use, with limited setup costs.
