Sensor integration, data management and visualisation is a key challenge for all IoT technology managers, irrespective of the size or complexity of an organisation. That is why Astralytics offers such a valuable resource to help.
The “Internet of Things” (IoT) may sound complex, but is in fact a fairly simple concept to understand. On a very high level, IoT is the ability for things that contain embedded technologies to sense, communicate, interact, and collaborate with other things, thus creating a network of physical objects. In recent years this concept has gained enormous momentum, and is now one of the most talked about things in the world of technology today. At this rapid rate of growth, it is projected that there will be approximately 26 billion connected devices by 2020.
Along with the growth of internet connected devices, comes the need to store and analyse the data and make decisions that can save or make money for an organisation. Some organisations have started to create tremendous value from the IoT data but many of organisations are still struggling to get started. The challenge for many lies in understanding the use cases and how to best approach them.
