| AMQP | Advanced Message Queuing Protocol (AMQP) is an open standard for messaging middleware. It provides a method for connecting applications, across LANs and WANs. AMQP is a wire-level protocol plus a model for routing and queuing messages. It covers very high performance publish-subscribe patterns and high-reliability messaging. The IANA-assigned port number for AMQP is 5672 (TCP, UDP, SCTP protocols). The assigned port number for AMQPS (AMQP protocol over TLS/SSL) is 5671. |

| concrete CloudFactory | A concrete CloudFactory is a class-based programming term that refers a factory method of creating objects which adds flexability to the system. Simply put, a concrete CloudFactory is a built in Extensiblity point. For example, within the CloudSentienceDevice is a SentienceCloudProtocolFactory that is used to create the event messages that this CloudDevice can send. These event messages are specifically formatted to work with the Sentience Cloud platform. Another CloudDevice would contain a different type of CloudFactory that creates messages specifically formatted to work with a different cloud platform. |

| the cloud | Simply put, the term refers to a type of Internet-based computing that provides shared computer processing resources and data
to computers and other devices on demand. It is a model for enabling on-demand access to a shared pool of resources (e.g.,
computer networks, servers, storage, applications and services). Cloud computing and cloud storage solutions provide users
and enterprises with capabilities to store and process their data in third-party data centers.
In traditional computing systems, users run software applications installed on a physical computer or corporate server. Cloud computing enables users to access the same kinds of applications through the Internet, paying a subscription fee for individual services, thereby paying only for what they use. If an organization quickly needs access to more resources, it can scale quickly in the cloud. If it needs to scale down resources, it can do so just as easily. |
