Abstract

Despite several efforts in contests throughout the world that encourage local communities to develop applications based on government Open Data, the solutions resulting from such initiatives do not have longevity, lacking maintenance and rapidly falling into disuse. This is due mainly to the lack of investment or even a model for monetizing the use of such applications. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a model that fosters the value chain for Open Data aiming an economically self-sustained ecosystem. Such ecosystem should promote new businesses through the creation of systems and applications focused on citizens. This article discusses the creation of software ecosystems for services and applications underpinned by a platform based on Open Data as a Service.
