The IoT is becoming more systemic in business, eduction and government by the day. This year will see more IoT based deployments than ever before according to most any research study. IoT technologies are developing at a rapid fire pace and will continue to do so throughout 2019 and beyond. The following article does an outstanding job of highlighting eight specific IoT technology trends you should look for in 2019. One trend that I foresee that is most interesting (and potentially the most lucrative) is the sale, and resale of IoT collected data.
For several years, the Internet of Things (IoT) has been a key trend involving the transfer of data to and from cloud-connected sensors and the software that enables companies to perform analytics on that data. Gartner Research projects the number of connected things will reach 14.2 billion in 2019 and 25 billion by 2021. In addition, Gartner predicts the price of IoT sensors will come down in 2019, which will enable more companies to use them to gain insights in health care, manufacturing, retail, and other industries.
