4. What Makes IoT ?
What makes IoT?
ANALYZE
Through manual
analysis or automated
processing, insights
are extracted and
presented.
CONTROL
Based on these
insights, alerts are
sent to people,
enterprise systems, or
IoT devices to take
action.
SENSE
Data is gathered,
processed, filtered,
and transmitted by a
“terminal” or
connected device.
TRANSPORT
Data passes over
networks, which may
be Wi-Fi, cellular,
mesh radio, satellite,
or fixed line.
STORE
Information from
across the IoT
network is gathered
and stored, often in
the cloud.
