FIWARE GE (Generic Enabler) is the specification of a component or enabler in the FIWARE architecture following the recommendations defined in the project. By contrast FIWARE GEi (Generic Enabler implementation) is one of the possible implementation of the specification of that Enabler. This implementation has to follow all the details defined in its definition (architecture, API definition, installation and user manual).

There is also other concept, FIWARE GEri (Generic Enabler reference implementation) that is used in FIWARE in order to name the reference implementation of a Generic Enabler. It is mean that is decided to take one like the reference implementation of it from a list or different implementation of a Generic Enabler. In some cases, there could be only a implementation of that Generic Enabler and so, the GEi will be the GEri.
