The Internet of Things (IoT). How will it change the business? -

I'm on the 2014 Internet of Things Expo, part of the larger 2014 Cloud Expo takes place this week at the Santa Clara Convention Center. What interested me, the Internet of Things (IoT) Expo in participating? I was fascinated by the fact that they had to offer IoT track a particular company.

With so much IoT hype rent of the dog focused on the consumer impact that Wearables and of smart home bring (plus daily reports of drones on espionage celebrities ), it can be lost in the noise, it will be much or large IoT solutions and advantages that exist for the company.

Just as the Internet of Things for the consumer is different than the Internet of Things for the company?

At first glance, they are not so different. You talk about devices or things to collect with easier information and data and efficiently than you could have before, and use this information for your own benefit. While this concept is not really new, it has in any case with new types of connected devices with location detection and things, and easier and faster to collect fashion, transport and analyze to produce these gadgets and gizmos improves data. The differences between the consumer and enterprise model often refers to the security and the scope. will produce the typical business data much more and have much more rigid safety requirements than the typical consumer. Scale also requires the enterprise to recognize and support multiple protocols and standards, as they deal with different types of IoT solutions for the entire enterprise. The days standardize on a single IT solution was driven by the consumerization of itand will be made worse only by the Internet of Things.

These differences methods for companies to develop this scale to manage. [1945007[

At the show we heard Red Hat talk about the "Intelligent Enterprise" and how the typical company is an IoT controller of some sort, sitting as a mediator between the devices and the cloud is, the filter and summarize prior data and provide real-time actions and policy enforcement to a data center / cloud send. MuleSoft also mentions that we could have a "hub of all hubs" because initially to help provide this level of control, it can manage too many different ecosystems and that the consolidation of protocols and standards is not on the short-term horizon. While these controllers offer security features, it will not be the classic firewall-type model. IBMmentioned that with IoT we will move from "controlled access to" controlled trust "that this is the only way to provide security, in a model in which everything is interconnected. If all this sounds familiar, it is because it is.

the concept of a controller on the network definitely not new.

security is derived from controlled trust towards controlled access has for a while and was strongly influenced by the explosion of mobile devices in the enterprise (remember the deperimeterization the network?) driven. the point is the Internet of things really nothing new has been repeatedly made by multiple vendors around the show. However, the point was also made that the pace of change accelerated and continue to do to be more connected and more things will be more data collected and to take more intelligence and knowledge from the data. This rapid development of the Internet of things will force the Enterprise, with new appliances, new protocols, new standards, treat new connections, etc ... will lead this new solutions while familiar and share similarities with known concepts as the companies turn help all of this data into actionable services to be where a lot of innovation is to have there. It should be a fun ride.
