What is the Internet of Things (IoT)?

The Internet of Things is increasingly dominating our everyday lives: fitness watches are counting our steps, mobility is becoming smart, machines are communicating with each other and intelligent data processing is transforming cities into smart cities. All kinds of devices, machines and things generate data, which we can use to discover new information or even control processes. The Internet of Things is revolutionizing business and everyday life and is one of the most important driving forces behind the digital transformation.

 «With IoT, digitalization is opening up new horizons.
IoT is making the world smarter.»

Around the data center are possible applications such as the optimization of mobility, convenient solutions for the smart home, powerful analysis systems, increased efficiency in industry and increased innovation in companies.

 

IoT can be used for so many different applications

With one in three startups currently focusing on IoT, it clearly harbors vast potential. Today, the technology is already speeding up automation in industry and simplifying logistics in warehouses.

Data-based coordination ensures more efficient utilization of transport routes while tracking makes supply chains more secure. The Internet of Things also has a positive influence on maintenance work, allowing better, easier planning and implementation of employee deployment.

IoT also has plenty of potential in improving the customer experience. Linked with artificial intelligence, services are becoming increasingly customized, with new disruptive applications in such fields as smart home, health and leisure.

 

The digital universe is expanding

Even today, there are more devices networked than people, and this trend is set to accelerate over the next few years. With 75 billion networked devices, eighteen times as many devices will be online as people in 2025, meaning that the potential of the Internet of Things is far from being exhausted.
