Web services for smart entity creation and maintenance using time series data

A method for managing data relating to a plurality of physical devices connected to one or more electronic communications networks, comprising:

• receiving, by one or more processors, first raw data from a first device of a plurality of physical devices, the first raw data including one or more first data points generated by the first device;
• generating, by the one or more processors, first input timeseries according to the one or more data points;
• accessing, by the one or more processors, a database of interconnected smart entities, the smart entities comprising object entities representing each of the plurality of physical devices and data entities representing stored data, the smart entities being interconnected by relational objects indicating relationships between the object entities and the data entities;
• identifying, by the one or more processors, a first object entity representing the first device from a first device identifier in the first input timeseries;
• identifying, by the one or more processors, a first data entity from a first relational object indicating a relationship between the first object entity and the first data entity;
• and
• storing, by the one or more processors, the first input timeseries in the first data entity.

An entity management cloud computing system for managing data relating to a plurality of physical devices connected to one or more electronic communications networks, comprising:

• one or more processors communicably coupled to a database of interconnected smart entities, the smart entities comprising object entities representing each of the plurality of physical devices and data entities representing stored data, the smart entities being interconnected by relational objects indicating relationships between the object entities and the data entities;
• and
• one or more computer-readable storage media communicably coupled to the one or more processors having instructions stored thereon that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:
• receive first raw data from a first device of the plurality of physical devices, the first raw data including one or more first data points generated by the first device;
• generate first input timeseries according to the one or more data points;
• identify a first object entity representing the first device from a first device identifier in the first input timeseries;
• identify a first data entity from a first relational object indicating a relationship between the first object entity and the first data entity;
• and
• store the first input timeseries in the first data entity.
