What are IoT services?

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a network of physical objects that are embedded with sensors, software, and other technologies to enable them to collect and exchange data. IoT services are the applications and services that support the development, deployment, and management of IoT solutions. IoT services enable organizations to gain insights from data gathered from connected devices in order to improve operations, reduce costs, and create new, innovative services.

IoT services can be divided into three categories: platform services, device services, and service integration services. Platform services provide the foundational layer for the development and deployment of connected devices and services. Device services enable the management and monitoring of connected devices, and service integration services enable the integration of different services and platforms.

Platform services provide a foundation layer for the development, deployment, and management of IoT solutions. These services enable organizations to develop, manage, and deploy applications that can securely connect and interact with connected devices. Device services offer the tools and capabilities for organizations to securely connect, provision, monitor, and manage their connected devices. Service integration services provide the tools and capabilities to securely connect and integrate different services and applications.

IoT services are essential for organizations to gain insights from data gathered from connected devices in order to improve operations, reduce costs, and create new, innovative services.
