Abstract: One embodiment provides a hub of a collecting device that receives messages from entities. The messages are formatted in a message structure that is dependent upon an entity sending the message. The hub analyzes each of the received messages by identifying, from the message structure, information corresponding to an interest of the collecting entity, and discarding information of the message not of interest to the collecting entity. The analysis is agnostic with respect to the entity sending the message and the message structure of the message. The hub performs an action based upon the information corresponding to an interest of the collecting entity.
