IoT Integration Services

What is the Internet of Things, and why is IoT Integration so important?

A connected network of things embedded with electronics, software, and sensors to the internet enabling them to collect and exchange data. These things may apply to consumers, logistical tracking, industrial use or probably anything you can think of. Successful IoT integration requires the ability to make it possible for independently created software systems and data to communicate. IoT integration requires taking a mix of new IoT devices, IoT data, IoT platforms, and IoT applications and combining them with IT assets such as legacy data, mobile, business applications, and SaaS; and making it possible for them to transfer information back and forth with each other seamlessly, resulting in a well-optimized end-to-end IoT business solution.

Control Systems Integrators and manufacturing operations facilities are familiar with the integration of devices. The IoT applied to industrial applications is much the same. However, the number and type of devices, as well as the variations and flexibility of connecting those devices extends beyond typical control systems technologies.
