6. Microsoft’s view
The Internet of Things starts with
Your Things.
• Build on the infrastructure you already have.
• Add more devices to the ones you already own.
• Get more from the data that already exists.
Stop just running your business.
Start making it thrive. Start realizing the
potential of the Internet of Your Things.
