CAPITALIZE ON INTERNET OF THINGS
OPPORTUNITIES
The Internet of Things is rapidly gaining traction
in the consumer space with wearable technolo-
gy, connected cars, and health-monitoring
devices. Fueled by the ubiquity of smartphones,
reduction in the size and price of sensors, and
falling processing and bandwidth costs, the IoT
is beginning to have the same impact on
business.
The billions of connections between people,
machines, and things are generating a rising
tide of bidirectional data that can revolutionize
the way business operates by enabling real-time
analysis and decision making. This offers huge
opportunities for your customers to:
• Connect billions of Internet-enabled things
to gain new insight
• Transform the way you run your business by
driving new, more profitable business
models
• Reimagine their customer experiences
Our physical and digital worlds are converging to create a global nervous system
that is transforming the way we live and work. The key to success for your
customers in this Internet of Things (IoT) will be the ability to connect the core of
their business to the edge of the network to drive the creation of new revenue
models, products, and services. Explore how a co-innovation partnership with SAP
can help you provide the infrastructure your customers need to leverage these
emerging opportunities.
