Internet of things is a disruptive technology that is impacting many verticals in modern economy. The future of IoT can be evolutionary or revolutionary. Evolutionary means to keep backward compatibility with current Internet technologies, while revolutionary means novel architectures that deeply redesign the status quo. In this paper, we experimentally evaluate a future Internet of things approach called NovaGenesis. For this aim, we employ virtual sensors (emulated in software) to demonstrate a service-defined IoT architecture based on smart objects, self-verifying naming, dynamic resource and services orchestration, software-defined control and contract-based operation. In this paper, we aim at verifying scalability of NovaGenesis distributed temporary cache. Presented results suggest NovaGenesis hash table service can provide the required scalability in a local domain.
