As we come toward year’s end, we are beginning to see the IoT predictions for 2020. While a forward facing look at the horizon can be helpful, I find that equal, or even more value can be derived from a retrospective view. For the fifth consecutive year now, Dresner Advisory Associates’ has conducted their 2019 Edition of IoT Intelligence® Market Study. The study reviews many organizations’ interest in, and demand for applying business intelligence (BI) to IoT data, systems, and processes. I have found numerous fascinating insights in this study. The article that follows does an excellent job of breaking down the results and sharing these insights.
