The concept of Internet of Things has silently existed since the late nineteenth century but in the current decade expectations and excitement has peaked. However not many have understood the profound change that it can usher in. How big this change can be and how it can transform our working!

This book aims to bring in this realization with illustrative and practical case studies with comprehensive concepts. From beginners to practitioners in the field of academics or industry, it serves as a comprehensive yet easy to comprehend source of information on the multiple facets of IoT.

The Internet of Things (IoT) has arrived as one of the biggest changes to disrupt the digital world and in a much bigger way than what the internet did a few decades ago or evolution of computers did half a century before. It seems very likely that the traffic generated by the IoT devices will far surpass the total traffic generated by human beings so far and that there is an imperative need to rethink the way we have designed our information systems and our computing infrastructure. A number of adoptions of the IoT concepts are visible in all walks of life globally and the number is all set to increase to billions of connected objects before the turn of the decade. This book presents some of the use cases of the IoT in different business facets and processes, focusing more on the manufacturing sector and, hence, there is a distinct coverage of Industrial IoT (IIoT) as well. This book is unique as it highlights a variety of topics and practical implementations, all of them of crucial importance for the futuristic objects-driven internet world.
