What is IoT?
April 1, 2016
What is the Internet of Things? IoT can encompass such a broad network of connected devices that it is becoming difficult to define. We ‘asked’ everyone who is talking about IoT on Twitter what it means to them (by tracking the entire market discussion and analyzing the conversation). We found that when people talk about IoT, they are interested in Big Data, and the fact that the ever expanding IoT may even make Big Data Look Small. Wearables, Cloud, and Smart Home are also a large part of the IoT conversation as people discuss development of wearable sensors, healthcare implications of connected devices, and how to compute all the collected data.
