The document outlines the top five challenges facing the Internet of Things (IoT) ecosystem in 2018, including scalability, fragmentation, big data handling, security, and the rise of Software as a Service (SaaS) solutions. It emphasizes the need for improved management and security as IoT devices proliferate, alongside the necessity for analytical tools to manage diverse data sources. The document also highlights TestingXperts' role in simplifying the testing process for IoT applications.

1. After a revolutionary 2017 that saw the IoT become a household name throughout the world,
there are several challenges that need to be addressed. Following are the top 5 challenges that the IoT
eco-system will face in 2018:
Scalability will be key to managing the explosive
growth in the Internet of Things (IoT). IoT applica-
tions must have the ability to support an increas-
ing number of connected devices, application fea-
tures, users, and analytics capabilities, without
any lack of quality in the service. Scalability is an
important factor that is crucial in monitoring,
managing, and securing, an increasing number of
devices through a balanced increase in the
resources.
Scalability
As IoT continues to grow, it will become more and
more fragmented. With the visible increase in the
cloud solutions and as-a- Service (aaS) programs,
fragmentation will create several hurdles for
enterprises, creating compatibility issues for
them throughout their businesses.
Fragmentation

IoT is producing massive volumes of structured
and unstructured data, often known as Big Data,
which is being deployed on cloud services. The
data is mostly heterogeneous and lives across
several relational and non-relational systems and
databases. Therefore, demand for analytical tools
that seamlessly connect with a variety of
cloud-hosted data sources is increasing
immensely.

Security is a must as we depend on connected
devices to make our lives easier and better in this
year. It is important for all participants in the IoT
ecosystem to ensure the security of the devices,
data, and solutions. Whether it is the new data
privacy regulations that are all set to take hold in
Europe and UK or further developments in the
field of security elsewhere, IoT’s potential can
only be achieved only if all security challenges
are addressed properly.

SaaS enterprises are one of the most anticipated
markets of 2018. SaaS technollgy has quickly
become the favorite of many companies that are
expecting to up their IT game without having to
invest in a lot. Therefore, there will be widespread
adoption of SaaS solutions in this year.
