What is IoT?; applications far beyond home automationWhen we think about the Internet of Things, the first image that comes to our mind is the image of an independent fridge that buys things on its own, or the image of a vacuum cleaner which is linked to the windows in order to achieve...
The Internet of Things (IoT) is a network of devices that can connect through the internet. While connected, these devices can send and receive dat a between each other and enter online platforms such as the cloud. Many IoT devices can be controlled by using voices or an application (app)...
The API provides access to data, so this data can be included in different applications. Instead of attempting to format a big file in a local application to extract a little bit of data, an API delivers the data you’re looking for without needing additional investigation or manipulation. It...
IoT refers to a system of physical devices that receive and transfer data over wireless networks with limited human intervention.
These are a nice choice for higher power or higher drain IoT applications where primary battery replacement frequency is not an option. A rechargeable battery application is a higher cost implementation because of the initial cost of the batteries and the charging ci...
An application functions across all platforms, including desktop, web and mobile. API testing is usually done as part ofapplication lifecycle management, both for the software that publishes the API and for all the software that uses it. APIs also must be tested in their published form to ensur...
IoT systems function by gathering data from sensors embedded in IoT devices, which is then transmitted through anIoT gatewayfor analysis by an application or back-end system. This article is part of Ultimate IoT implementation guide for businesses ...
What is an example of an Internet of Things device? Pretty much any physical object can be transformed into an IoT device if it can be connected to the internet to be controlled or communicate information. A lightbulbthat can be switched on using a smartphone app is an IoT device,...
IoT Central is an IoT application platform as a service (aPaaS) that reduces the burden and cost of developing, managing, and maintaining IoT solutions. Use IoT Central to quickly evaluate your IoT scenario and assess the opportunities it can create for your business. To streamline the developmen...
This use of the internet is now commonly called the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). Such platforms may provide an operating environment, computer processing capability, data storage structure and program building blocks for application developers. GE's Predix is an IIoT platform designed for ...
