Internet of things ( IoT ) the new age of technology

The internet of things, or IoT, is a system of interrelated computing devices, mechanical and digital machines, objects, animals or people that are provided with unique identifiers (UIDs) and the ability to transfer data over a network without requiring human-to-human or human-to-computer interaction

IoT is influencing our lifestyle, from the way we react to the way we behave. From air conditioners that you can control them with your smartphone, also you control your smart cars by providing them the shortest route to take, or your smartwatch can track your daily activities.

Really IoT is a giant network with connected devices, these devices gather and share data about how they are used, and the environment in which they are operated. It’s all done using sensors, these sensors are embedded in every physical device. It can be your mobile, phone, electrical appliances, bar code sensors, traffic lights and almost everything that you come across in day-to-day life.

These sensors continuously emit data about the working state of the devices, but the important question is how do they share this huge amount of data? and how do we put this data to our benefits?

IoT provides a common platform for all these devices to dump their data and a common language for all the devices to communicate with each other.

Data is emitted from various sensors and sent to IoT platform security. IoT platform integrates the collected data from various sources further analytics is performed on the data and valuable information is extracted as per requirement.
