Shaping the IoT future
across all market sectors
Our World of IoT Sector Map, first introduced in 2008, has been translated into many languages worldwide as a reference document. Now updated for the market today, it shows the 9 key business sectors where IoT applications abound, the application groups and application types within those sectors, and the devices – or ‘Things’ – typically connected at the network edge through which IoT services are offered to the market.
‘IoT anywhere’ is the promise, but it cannot be achieved with one connectivity type alone.
- Who needs 5G RedCap? How does it fit versus LTE Cat versions?
- What is the opportunity for GEO and LEO satellites integrated with cellular and LoRaWAN?
- What do leading IoT market players think?
These and other key issues on IoT connectivity choices are explored in this report.
- Is private networking just for large companies?
- What are the opportunities for smaller sites, smaller businesses and communities?
- When is cellular site coverage lower cost than Wi-Fi?
- How should enterprises get started? What are the practical steps?
- Can private networks help to address the DIGITAL DIVIDE of underserved communities and remote locations?
Challenges and Opportunities
How easy is it to move from a small IoT deployment to a large one? You may have a successful proof of concept project, but how best to grow that?
In our recent survey, 48% of respondents said that ‘Substantial Change’ is needed.
Increasingly, data related to organisational operations will be required to identify and track sustainability performance.
The development of AI-based energy management solutions can significantly improve energy efficiency and help achieve national and international targets for carbon emissions reduction.
Companies consider these two issues when planning their strategies...
Until recently, businesses aiming to implement AI into operations have had to do so via the cloud.
Now that edge technology has advanced, businesses can implement local AI solutions – enabling low-latency, real-time processing.
This has several value benefits...
Data is central to IoT applications, and the insights derived from them. New methods of data collection enable new insights for decision makers, aiming for better and faster outcomes.
Satellite IoT enables applications that are not feasible with terrestrial IoT alone and is a topic to watch as new networks and applications are launched.
