Description
Hi Team,
I�m trying to develop some technical skills on the FiWARE platform to test out a concept so apologies if my questions are dumb! But here we go:
Here�s what I want to do:
1. Create a persistent store of data that can be dynamically updated via APIs.
2. Create a front-end (app) to get data in/out of the store
3. Allow the datastore to be accessed by other apps
Questions:
1. Persistent Store Can I create the persistent store using the FiWARE cloud portal. When I have just tried to do this I get struck with understand exactly how to do this e.g. create containers, create objects, but then how to create an instance of this exactly. Anything I can read/watch that teaches me how to do this?
2. Create a Front End - Can I use the wire cloud to do this?
Just want to make sure I�m on the right tracks�
Thanks in advance for any help.
Ken

The Object Store component can be used as a data store in the cloud, and it allows updates using a REST API.
Note that at the moment, parts of the testbed are undergoing upgrades and the Object Store component might not be working.
Before starting, you will need a FiWare account. See https://account.lab.fiware.org/home.
Then you will need to create a container to hold your data objects.
An Object Store container can be created either using the Cloud Portal (https://cloud.lab.fiware.org/#objectstorage/containers/) or directly using the Object Store APIs. See https://forge.fiware.org/plugins/mediawiki/wiki/fiware/index.php/Object_Storage_-_User_and_Programmers_Guide for details.
There are examples on how to upload and download objects from an application using the Object Store API.
I am not familiar with wire cloud, so I can't comment on that.
