AIoT: The much needed convergence of AI and IoT
The artificial intelligence of things (AIoT) is a great example of technology convergence. AIoT integrates artificial intelligence (AI) technologies and the internet of things (IoT) infrastructure. The primary goal of AIoT is to make IoT operations more efficient, enhance human-machine communication, and boost data management and analysis. What is AIoT:

Is fog computing more than just another branding for edge computing?
Cisco coined fog computing to describe extending cloud computing to the enterprise’s edge. It’s a decentralized computing platform in which data, computation, storage, and applications are stored somewhere between the data source and the cloud. What is fog computing? The cloud is connected to the physical host via a network

Secure by Design: Keeping IoT security in mind all down the line
IoT security is a subset of information technology that focuses on securing connected devices and internet of things networks. When bad actors search for IoT security flaws, they have a high probability of hacking vulnerable devices. Industrial and equipment connected to them robots have also been hacked. Hackers can alter

How to secure IoT networks?
Internet of Things (IoT) solves the critical problems of many sectors, from production to health, from transportation to logistics. However, the increasing security risks for IoT networks require caution when taking advantage of connected devices. Interconnected IoT objects are not the same devices, objects, or services. Each object has a

Harnessing Time and Space Data Is a Major Market Opportunity if It Doesn’t Crush You First
According to IDC, IoT data is forecasted to reach 73 zettabytes by 2025, while a recent study by Deloitte estimates that 40% of IoT devices will be capable of sharing location in 2025, up from 10% in 2020. This means time and space data is the fastest-growing big data category

Prioritizing privacy in an IoT world
The Internet of Things (IoT) is seemingly everywhere these days. You can find IoT devices in connected utility systems, appliances, sensors, security systems, cameras, wearable health devices, and pretty much everything else you can think of. This is just the start of what’s to come, with the IoT market on

Convenience over common sense: The security dilemma of smart home devices
Smart home devices are used to monitor or control the environment in our homes. These marvels of technology make life easier by handling changes in temperature, lighting, entertainment systems, and other appliances. But while they’re the height of convenience, we can’t ignore the security nightmare being created by their use.

Connected Cars, Telematics and Connectivity-as-a-Service : What’s the Future?
Vehicle-to-Cloud – yes, it is a thing! And it is making automotive insurance providers and telecoms thrive together to support telematics “Self-driving cars are the natural extension of active safety and obviously something we should do,” this is a popular quote by Elon Musk. But wait, even more popularly discussed

How Big Data Assists in Disaster Relief and Preparedness
Disasters are dangerous, but Big Data can help improve disaster relief and preparedness to cut back on lives lost and community damage. Historically, public policies have proved ineffective in providing adequate help for disaster-stricken citizens. A year after hurricane Harvey in 2017, for example, residents are still in the midst

Three Key Facts About Sensors That Are Driving IoT Forward
As the collectors of actionable input information, networked smart devices with embedded sensors, software and electronics are a key driving force behind the Internet of Things (IoT). However, they do not generate value for organizations on their own. Powerful, fast database technologies are required to create meaningful insight from the
