Frequently asked questions

The Internet of Things (IoT) refers to the concept of connecting any device to the internet and, in turn, to other devices to create a large, interconnected network that collects and shares data.

The Internet of Things consists of a network of devices with built-in sensors that generate data. This data is then gathered and analyzed by an IoT platform, which can detect patterns, make predictions and share useful information with other relevant applications.

By using AI and machine learning, IoT services can differentiate valuable information from invaluable data, detect patterns, make predictions and share useful information with other relevant applications, allowing organizations to make informed decisions and avoid problems before they occur.

As its structure comprises many different devices connected together, robust IoT security is essential to minimize the risk of data leaks. There can also be problems with compatibility between devices, software versions and bandwidth use.

The first thing to consider is what your organization wants from an IoT platform, and how it’s going to integrate with your existing devices and processes. It’s important to find an IoT solution that is user friendly, offers cross-platform compatibility and is designed to scale with your business.
