We hear about IoT all the time but how does it work and how can it be used to create business value? In this blog sequence we'll break down the complexity of the Internet of Things (IoT) and demonstrate how the “Information of Things” delivers the value of the Digital Transformation journey by following Aristotle’s elements of circumstance approach. Follow along, as we answer the what, why, who, how, where, and when of the “Information of Things.”
In this second chapter of the IoT series, we’ll show that IoT is about the “Information of Things.” The value of IoT follows the Pyramid of Knowledge, generating increasing value as data gathered from IoT devices is processed into information and the resulting knowledge & insights.
Our Principal IoT Systems Architect, Paul Ganichot, breaks it down in this new blog series that goes through the what, why, who, how, where, when of the “Information of Things.” In this first post, we’ll define the Internet of Things, decompose its main components, summarize the IoT ecosystem, and demystify buzzwords such as Digital Twin, Digital Engineering, and Virtual Sensor.
