Market research reports and various data from different providers show a solid idea of IoT trends in the upcoming years. Amidst the pandemic challenges and the shift to remote work, IoT trends are positioned to accelerate the global economy and provide answers to the growing demand for connected devices. Moreover, as 5G is spreading globally, it will also enhance the operational efficiency of IoT devices. Recent IoT trends suggest that IoT technology will dramatically enhance traffic operations and create a connected vehicle ecosystem for safe and effective transportation. Realizing this trend, organizations are also releasing solutions that aim to use IoT embedded technology in vehicles and traffic systems to design more intelligent traffic grids to reduce unnecessary traffic and congestion. Not just for real-world users, but also businesses will gain an advantage with IoT devices. AI-enabled IoT will help in data analysis, data discovery, and predictive analytics with increased time-series accuracy. Eventually, IoT solution providers who create innovations in sensors, network communications, applications, and the IoT cloud will gain lasting competitive advantages over companies that are not invested in IoT solutions for everyday problems. We've made this special edition on IoT technology to help you embrace IoT and align with the current tech trends. The magazine includes some of the top innovators and the views of top-level tech experts and business executives. We hope this edition adds value to your IoT initiatives. Simon Parkerwww.enterpriseviewpoint.com ARE YOU IoT READY ?THE WORLD’S FIRST CONVERGED IoT HUB COVER STORY oday, it is a fact that most businesses handle a tremendous amount of data daily. However, companies need a more solid data strategy to collect, process, and analyze data. Without the right technology or technique, the businesses’ data could be hindering its BI, analytics, and innovation goals. This is also the single biggest challenge organizations face—getting access to data generated by machines (i.e., sensors and other connected devices)—in the modern IoT space. There is a gap between the operational engineers managing machines and the software engineers/data analysts who need their data. In a sense, it is a data integration problem. There is a great deal of data generated by machines, and it’s valuable. So, the question is how to get hands on that data and make it available to enterprise applications, developers, and data scientists. FairCom—the provider of the most customizable database engine on the market and the world’s first converged IIoT hub—is bridging this gap between operational engineers and data analysts. FairCom has a long history as a pioneer in the software industry. In addition to its ground-breaking IoT Solution Providers 2021 20 Innovative FairCom EDGE is an all-in-one solution that includes all the core features needed to integrate IoT/Industrial IoT solutions. There is no need to purchase, install, and manage separate software for MQTT, REST, SQL, and JSON Mike Bowers, Chief ArchitectNext >
