Before IoT, applications worked using a "request and response" design where information flows in one direction. Now with the emergence of IoT, applications need to be able to flow data both ways and be able to learn from the incoming data to make improvements on-the-fly.

This report will provide you with insight into how applications must now be developed to cater to an IoT world and how you can incorporate machine learning to facilitate IoT data interpretation.

IoT is here to stay. In fact, the IoT platform market is projected to hit $1.6 billion by 2021. IoT makes it possible for businesses to connect to things, people, and locations, manage those connections and harnesses data that can provide insight for businesses.

This report explores key considerations for future-proofing elements of your IT stack and smoothing the transition to IoT components for your business.

IoT may seem like a wide array of technologies arranged in a bewildering set of combinations, which is true, but reading this eBook can thankfully break things down for you into clear layers that you can use to inform your mental model of IoT to create your own IoT application. This eBook will teach you how to:

• Break down IoT into a mental framework to think about your solution
• Connect, secure and interact with things in the cloud
• Design and implement with key cloud technologies in mind
• Wrap up all the information into an application quickly and effectively
