The explosion of innovative and low-cost sensors and devices - otherwise known as the Internet of Things (IoT) - is transforming enterprise connectivity. With access to more data than ever before, IoT is driving insights, increasing productivity, reducing operating costs and improving the consumer experience.
The benefits of IoT are being felt across almost every industry, with end-point visibility improving manufacturing efficiency, retail inventory, healthcare outcomes and other key enterprise metrics. Moreover, businesses are integrating IoT with their digital strategy and with complimentary technologies such as mobile, social, analytics and big data to derive maximum near and long-term value.
However, intense focus is required to secure endpoints, devices and networks within a comprehensive framework that ensures safe and successful deployments at scale.
By the year 2025, 34 cities worldwide will have a population of greater than 10 million people. Cities already consume 2/3 of the world’s energy and the majority of other resources. Now imagine the impact on consumption in these cities that have more than 10 million people.
Internet of Things (IoT).IoT Smart Cities’ technology enables the cutting-edge intelligence and flexibility necessary to help cities use resources more efficiently – to improve everything from quality of the air and water to transportation, energy and communication systems. And city governments will invest approximately $41 trillion over the next 20 years to upgrade their infrastructure to benefit from the IoT.With these huge investments, the IoT will transform the quality of life for citizens in cities
A successful smart city strategy will hinge on the ability for cities to innovate within six key domains: economy, environment and energy, government and education, living and health, mobility, and safety and security.
