Lighting is one of the most relevant infrastructures due to its impact on modern societies, but it is also complex to manage them in cities since it involves a massive number of widespread posts and is costly as the result of the consumption of significant amounts of energy. In that regard, this work proposes a scalable framework to manage a significant huge number of lamp posts. Its purpose is to give support to collecting large amounts of sensor data to help to analyze and efficiently fit the light intensity level to the space the posts are covering. Luminosity sensors are used to optimize the intensity of light needed in the urban areas. The proposed framework explores the concept of smart cities by combining the data collected from sensors plugged into IoT (Internet-ofThings) devices. The proposed framework offers the capability to extend and integrate new services to different domains with each other which enhances the quality and performance of urban services. To demonstrate the feasibility of the framework, a simulation was put in place.engSmart CitiesSmart lightsSensorsScalabilitybook part10.1007/978-3-031-14859-0_26
