Abstract
The increasing complexity in the management of Smart Grids is an essential factor in the creation of new technological infrastructures capable of managing the different devices involved in the network. This network has been converted into an example of the Internet of Things. In this regard, the Web of Things enables an improvement in the processing of these data. Besides, the large amount of data in the Smart Grid domain means that a high performance architectural design is able to manage concurrently the entire information processing ability. This paper presents an initial approach for a new architecture and the first results after the system implementation.

The recent growth of the Internet has fostered the interaction of many heterogeneous technologies under a common environment
It extends the IoT concept by providing a bidirectional human-to-machine interface, inspired by the Web of Things (WoT), which results in a ubiquitous energy control and management system coined as Web of Energy (WoE) [1]
The database proposed is an open-source document database that provides high performance, high availability, and automatic scaling [2].

Summary
The recent growth of the Internet has fostered the interaction of many heterogeneous technologies under a common environment (i.e., the Internet of Things, IoT). This proposal deploys an IoT-based infrastructure that enables machine-to-machine interactions between small and resource-constrained devices on the Smart Grid domain based on HTTP. It extends the IoT concept by providing a bidirectional human-to-machine interface, inspired by the Web of Things (WoT), which results in a ubiquitous energy control and management system (i.e., uniform access to all devices of the Smart Grid) coined as Web of Energy (WoE) [1]. The main objective is to carry out a proof of concept of an open web-based interface that isolates the electricity grid domain from its utility functions. The database proposed is an open-source document database that provides high performance, high availability, and automatic scaling [2]. (2) It relies on a Southbound RESTful API that permits an easy and seamless management of the distributed storage layer and the smart objects connected to the system
