Technology has given us the gift of numerous luxuries to make our lives simpler. Year on year this advanced technology introduces us to mind-blowing innovations and creations that help us improve our daily lives in several ways. The internet, GPS, smartphones, self-driving cars, among the many technology creations have shown us the possibility to achieve more. While this technology has showered us with an abundance of comfort, this has come at a cost.
One of the biggest challenges today we are facing is the decreasing air quality and its harmful effects on not just human life but the planet as well. Transportation, industries, offices, housing among others are various sources of degrading air quality. According to recent data from the World Health Organization WHO, every year over 7million premature deaths are caused due to the air quality effects.
The notoriously famous COVID-19 has surely taught us the value and importance of being able to breathe and too in the fresh air. As we speak of COVID-19, according to scientists and doctors the world can expect much worse diseases in the coming years which can be airborne and hazardous. Masks, sanitizers, social distancing are going to be there for a long time but only these won’t be enough. The best solution to make this world a better place for the coming generations is to improve the air quality and the IoT Internet of Things looks like a promising option.
The combination of edge and cloud computing architecture will make the Internet of Things faster, cheaper, and more stable cloud computing architecture has been a blessing in disguise.
The ability to capture, store, and process data without worrying about measuring servers and demographic data and developed greater data structure and algorithm capabilities than ever before.At the same time, the Internet of Things (IoT) industry has grown exponentially.
Install Edge ComputingEdge computing involves processing and analyzing data near the source of where that data is collected.Instead of a device or sensor sending all of its data online to the cloud or the original data center, it can process this data itself, actually becoming its own small data center.Deliver this data to a nearby computer device, such as a gateway, computer, or small data structure and algorithm center device for analysis.
This is sometimes called fog computing, although Edge and fog computing are often used separately.With this new type of build, a greater amount of processing power becomes available among cloud service providers, which can help increase the speed of data analysis and reduce the burden placed on online networks to transfer large amounts of data.Business Insider expects that more than 5.6 billion devices will use edge computing, especially in the manufacturing, energy, and transportation industries.
Growth of IoT DevicesAT mobile network operator is making huge bets on edge computing, like the Verizon champion.And OpenFog Consortium is made up of various technology companies and educational institutions to create standards and promote computer edge and fog in all industries.Whether you produce, move, power, or any other industry, the use of smart devices and sensors to collect data from machines, cars, or people’s smartphones can have a profound effect on your business.
What Problems Does the Computer Solve?Edge computing solves several issues related to data transfer for IoT technology, including latency, reduced network load, privacy and security, reduced data management costs, and disaster recovery.
IoT presented the hyper availability idea, which implies associations, and people can speak with one another from distant areas easily.
The quick blast of IoT has helped associations and, in different ways, further developed statistical surveying and business procedures.
Essentially, IoT has worked on improving the way of life of people by presenting robotized services.
In any case, a particularly uncontrolled blast has expanded protection and security challenges.
Inappropriate Security PracticesInappropriate gadget refreshes the absence of productive and powerful security conventions, client ignorance, and renowned dynamic gadget monitoring are among the difficulties that IoT is confronting.
Despite the fact that few security systems were created to shield IoT gadgets from cyber attacks, security rules are not appropriately archived.
What opportunities does IoT technology have to offer?
Are there any successful IoT use cases in retail?
This blog post will answer this and other questions and gives a complete rundown of IoT implementation in retail.
