The Private Equity Digital Transformation Show (general)

OK, I admit it, this is going to be a bit of a geekfest but application protocols are an important topic to understand if you want to understand how IoT works. Protocols are the lifeblood of an IoT system and as we are about to find out, there are a few different types to choose from – each with their own characteristics and infrastructure requirements.

Meet IoT’s three layers of protocols… the media layer, otherwise known as the physical layer or radio, the network layer and the application layer. Important because they make up the network stack that transports data from the sensor to the cloud. Important because they are standardized. In this episode of the IoT Business show, Michael Richardson delivers a masterclass on everything you need to know about IoT’s three networking layers.

There’s no denying it, robots are cool, even more cool when you call them cyber-physical systems, which is what they are, but they’re also IoT systems. And applying the thinking of IoT to robots makes them even cooler and more valuable because instead of being discrete systems, they can be integrated as a component of an IoT environment, working together with other components, to deliver outcomes. In this episode of the IoT Business Show, I speak with Chris Jones of iRobot about the Roomba and its place in the IoT world.

Bruce Sinclair narrates the introduction chapter of his book, IoT Inc: How Your Company Can Use the Internet of Things to Win in the Outcome Economy. The book has 16 chapters plus a preface, the introduction chapter I read here and a conclusion chapter. If you want an overview of the 16 chapters, listen to the bonus episode two podcast episodes back.

In broad strokes, the software required for an IoT deployment can be grouped into four classes: embedded software for sensors and gateways, networking or the IoT platform (communication, rules and sometimes interpretation) data management & analytics and of course the IoT application. In this episode of the IoT Inc Business Show, I discuss the first class, embedded software for sensors, or more specifically, sensor operating systems, with Zach Shelby and the inevitable evolution of these disparate classes into an IoT software ecosystem.

In part 1 we discussed the sensor selection process and the costs involved. If you haven’t listened to the last episode, you should but it’s not a prerequisite. In part 2 of my interview with Scott Nelson, we finish talking sensor costs and move into sensor security, the untold risks when incorporating sensors and the expected evolutionary path sensor tech will take.

have to admit, when the first real deployments of LPWA or Low Power Wide Area Networks were being lit up, I wasn’t all that bullish on the competition: Mobile Operators in IoT. Wrong tech with the wrong business model… Or so I thought. Fast forward a couple of years to today and those behemoths are getting their acts together. In this episode of the IoT Inc Business Show, I speak with Patrice Slupowski about the Mobile Operator approach to IoT and I have to admit… I’m impressed.

There are five main IoT alliances/consortiums/groups focused on the Internet of Things and I interview them all. The Internet Protocol for Smart Object (IPSO) Alliance – episode E3 has been around for a while but the Open Interconnect Consortium (OIC) – episode 9, the Thread group, the Industrial Internet Consortium (IIC) and the Allseen Alliance have sprung up recently. Depending on your focus, one or more of these organizations and are worth looking into when starting your IoT journey. In this episode of the IoT Inc Business Show, I discuss the third organization, the Thread Group, with Skip Ashton.

It’s a symbiotic relationship – the big corporation, in search for that innovative edge, and the small startup, in search for supportto get their ideas off the ground. Both have what the other needs –desperately. Coming together they form one type of ecosystem. To be players, all IoT companies – big and small – must be part of one ormore ecosystem. In this episode of the IoT Business Show, I speak with the folks at TechrIot about their approach of bringing IoT companies together.

As the technology of IoT evolves the concept of a distributed computing environment is becoming increasingly relevant. A key component of this architecture is fog computing, blending the cloud to the edge. Being able to access computing, networking and storage resources locally makes sense for many classes of IoT deployments. In this episode of the IoT Business Show, I speak with the bigwigs of the newly formed, OpenFog Consortium.
