Internet of Things has progressed from coming together of micro-electromechanical systems, wireless technologies, micro services and the internet. This convergence has assisted in tearing the silo walls amongst the operational technology and the information technology, enabling unstructured machine-generated data for analyzing the insights which drive improvements. The IoT is simple: it's all about connecting devices via internet, allowing them to speak to us, to the applications, and with each other.
In the last couple of years, much has been talked about the sensors, cameras, and other devices that will be connected exponentially in the Internet of Things (IoT). And, the huge amount of income potential in terms of trillions of dollars of economic value that is being thought to emerge from it. Though the future of the IoT may be exciting, yet much of the industry messaging has gone above the heads of people who do not understand a thing of the IoT. And, these people operate plants, companies, and businesses and are also accountable for the deployment of the IoT-based solutions. Investors wonder to see the state and think what is actually real, and what is the hyped-up vision of the IoT-based future of industries in the near future.
During the last few years, organizations across the globe have started showing interest in IoT technology. Conventional industrial organizations are managing to alter the outdated processes of manufacturing. Also, the whole gamut of young innovative startups are redefining the old notions and assumptions. It ensures that the advantages of IoT technology will not keep it much far from the current scenario. It is being implemented now on the go.
According to reports, by the end of the year, 2008 number of 'things' were connected to the Internet than mere people as the users of Internet. And, it is predicted that by the end of the year 2020, the count will go much high. The number of things directly connected to the Internet will reach 50 billion approximately. It is estimated that the overall profits as a result of this rapid move will be around $19 trillion. The era will see huge cost savings coming from the IoT over the coming decade.
The concept of connected homes will become a major contributor in the Internet of Things. Scholars say that by the end of the year 2019, companies may bring approximately 1.9 billion home devices connected to the Internet into the market. This will add about $490 billion to their revenues. The tech giants like Google and Samsung are already known players in the market. Google successfully made a deal to buy smart thermostat maker Nest Labs for $3.2 billion in 2015. And, Samsung acquired the IoT firm SmartThings for a deal worth $200 million.
