Before we proceed to actual theme of blog, it’s useful to start out with some basics, and then jump into the big picture.

Internet, terminology itself describe its meaning that it should be something related to interconnected computer networks. Origin of Internet by the United States Federal Government in the 1960s.

Some interesting facts and figure.

What is Internet of Things?

The Internet of things is the network of physical objects that contain embedded technology to sense and interact with their environment and each other to collect and exchange data to make our lives better.

 Why Now?

Is it Bubble or real?

It’s not a hype it’s an evolution which will bring revolution in business.

It’s not bubble, it’s going to last long. You can understand importance of it via few facts displayed below.

  • Only 10% of cars were connected with internet in 2012, by 2020 it is expected that 90% will be.
  • The global market for wearable devices has grown 223% in 2015, with Fitbit shipping 4.4 million devices and Apple AAPL -1.07% selling 3.6 million Apple Watches.
