Realizing ROI from the IoT The Internet of Things (IoT) is making headlines in nearly every industry as IoT solutions help businesses collect data on everything from wearables to large-scale manufacturing operations. Interest is growing as IoT implementations begin to show return on their investment (ROI). The data insights these IoT solutions provide are helping businesses uncover valuable ways to optimize processes, improve energy effi ciency, and create new services and revenue streams.
In our lead article, you’ll learn about the latest IoT innovations from Intel and the Intel®
Internet of Things Solutions Alliance – and the results being achieved by them. In the articles that follow, you can explore examples of how Intel and Alliance members are working together to deliver solutions that:
• Preserve network bandwidth and cut cloud storage costs • Reduce healthcare costs on patient, employee, and insured populations • Help automakers improve product quality and customer relationship management (CRM) • Add extra resiliency to IoT sensor connections • Run real-time processes on IoT gateways alongside Windows* applications • Extend network functions virtualization (NFV) to the access network • Aid hospitals in improving patient outcomes in the surgical suite • Enable digital signage makers to expand networks into harsh environments • Consolidate machine vision and gateway workloads on IoT controllers
The common element through all these articles is the Alliance. This diverse ecosystem of hardware manufacturers, software companies, and service providers includes over 400 global member companies. Together with Intel, they provide the scalable, interoperable modular components and market-ready systems that help accelerate the deployment of intelligent devices and end-to-end analytics.
Discover how these solutions shorten the journey from IoT vision to reality.
