IoT
Transcript: In a connected world, everything eventually gets connected, and the Internet of things is simply the binder that keeps these connections in place Machine to machine and distributed computing system needs good management systems. The ideal platform solution for any M2M systems as it has the features needed to easy development and deployment, fight operational costs and drive sales. The Internet of Things defined: meant to describe the increasing installation of devices that in some way communicates with something else. As computers and computing devices get smaller, cheaper and more powerful, the number of installation increase rapidly. These devices might be local sensors without mainstream OS'es, or they can be so-called IoT edge hubs that collect and retransmit information to and from a cloud system. The FourC Groovy M2M Cloud System is an ideal platform for smart IoT things, edge devices, proxies or hubs as it integrates all features needed to administrer such systems over a long period of time Internet of Things What is an IoT Platform IoT platform with cloud connectivity must handle Security solution Communication system and messaging system User administration Data access and API On the distributed IoT device and In the cloud Remote control Monitoring and logging Error situations and deviations Theft protection Code and intellectual property protection Software, firmware and OS updates GUI-integration (without custom API) Combine applications using any programming libraries and programming infrastructures ... possibly from several suppliers on the same device and for sure other future functions An overview of IoT/ M2M Platform When we talk about an IoT Platform we generally refer to an IoT Application Enablement Platform There are 4 other types of platforms: Connectivity / M2M platforms IaaS backends Hardware-specific software platforms Consumer/Enterprise software extensions Environmental Impact of IoT But IoT will give us a few problems to solve: A modern IoT Platform architecture comprises of 8 components Not every IoT Platform is an IoT Platform Result in a better understanding of our surroundings and prepares us to find suitable solutions for environmental problems. IoT could have tremendous positive impacts on environment IoT Platforms are the key for the development of scalable IoT applications and services that connect the real and virtual worlds between objects, systems and people. Today we se an explosion in IoT deployments and solutions IoT platforms are emerging as the central backbone of these IoT deployments By 2019, the IoT Platform market will reach $1 billion To create a true IoT ecosystem, where systems of systems interact and generate value from diverse streams of data, interoperability is essential. No one IoT platform will be able to cover the wide spectrum of existing and potential use cases to come. FourC are based on Opens Source and are contributing back to the Open Source community The e-waste problem. Data and connected services are the real value of IoT Platforms At the moment at least 300 different IoT platforms out there .... and counting An accident in the tunnel Different entry strategies into the IoT Platform market Energy consumption. IoT networks require giant data centers to process and support their needs Gathering and connecting data points from billions of physical objects is fundamental to letting new IoT business cases come to life. Generating insightful data is the key to unlocking this value. Pocket-sized environmental sensors can now be carried around, monitoring the airborne quality, radiation, water quality, hazardous airborne chemicals and many other environment indicators. Open source is driving IoT Platform interoperability
