Did you know there are more mobile phones than humans on this
planet? The ever increasing use of smart devices, they are getting more
intelligent with more sophisticated sensing capabilities.
The extensive use of
sensor embedded devices, The old saying ‘Garbage In Garbage Out’ seems
no more relevant. The devices are getting smarter and increasingly the data
input is automated with least human intervention. The data thus collected is
analysed by enterprise software and ready to influence and guide human decision.
Early adopters of Enterprise software are more than ready to get fully
automated. Early days examples of integration of PLC, Weigh bridge, boom
barriers at manufacturing units as management control has evolved further to
offer real time update and statistics on patterns, forecast and better alert
humans for preventive action and readiness. Early indications by Internet of
Things (IoT) can reduce lead time, save costs and increase efficiency of
businesses exponentially. One of the most widely used examples of IoT is GPS
devices that are fitted on vehicles for tracking of location, movement, quality
of driving and vehicle performance. The device only generates location data
every few seconds that is captured on central servers and further analysed to get
meaningful information. Most of the businesses today use GPS on their vehicles.
Today businesses track the product they sell for its lifetime. Service industry
offers more convenient ways to reach customers; on the contrary customers find
services. Unless IoT is not integrated with analytics capability and enterprise
application the organisation cannot see an impact on its business. To sum up, in
days to come business need to ensure readiness on scalable infrastructure and
flexible software that can consume and process data from IoT and make business
more competitive in the market place.intelligent devices that are generating data and at
the same time transmitting data.
