The Battle of the Internet of Things Platform 2016

Last year, the trend of the Internet of Things was rapidly heating up. Cloud vendors such as Microsoft, IBM, AWS and Intel joined in and launched the enterprise-level Internet of Things development application platform. What they have in common is that they are able to access the Internet of Things more easily with their vast cloud resources. This also makes the Internet of Things market even hotter, and 2016 must have a good look!

Looking back at the IT market in 2015, there are quite a few major events that are impressive: the "Internet +" action plan proposed at the two sessions in March, the "China Smart Manufacturing 2025" strategy released, Microsoft launched the free Windows 10 at the end of June, and The news of the marriage or breakup of large manufacturers: In October, Dell announced the acquisition of EMC. In November, HP officially split into HPInc. and HPEnterprise. Taiji shares issued a heavy news at the end of December. It plans to acquire Baode Computer and Quantum Albert for about 2 billion yuan. ......

In the rapid development of technologies such as cloud computing, mobile internet, big data, and Internet of Things, we have seen that the prosperity of the cloud has also stimulated more innovative applications. In the analysis and application of big data, Hadoop data processing technology has been fired. Last year, the attention of Spark data processing technology has gradually increased, which has a tendency to replace Hadoop. In addition, the technology that entered the peak period has data science analysis and cognitive analysis, and there have been many successful application cases. Mobile applications are even more varied and will continue to grow in 2016. The trend of the Internet of Things is heating up rapidly. Vendors are concentrating on the hidden power of the Internet of Things and rushing to invest in the development of the Internet of Things, from sensors, devices and communications to cloud analysis software and services.

The Internet of Things will be fully realized by 2020

IDC's new spending guide shows that global IoT spending is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 17%, from $698.6 billion in 2015 to $1.7 trillion in 2020, with growth rates going with access. The increase in equipment, the increase in bandwidth and the maturity of ancillary services have accelerated. IDC believes that the output value of sensors and functional modules will reach 32% of the entire industry. This will lead to the maturity of specialized IoT platforms, software, and cloud services.

Gartner predicts that the number of IoT devices installed will reach 26 billion by 2020, and these devices will lead a staggering $1.8 trillion in the global economic environment. This means that everything you have, and anything you can think of, will connect to the Internet.

According to CBInsights, the rapidly growing Internet of Things sector has attracted nearly $7.5 billion in investments over the past six years, with nearly 900 transactions.

Cloud vendor's IoT strategic layout

In the Internet of Things market last year, there were also some changes. Cloud vendors such as Microsoft, IBM, AWS and Google joined in and launched the enterprise-level Internet of Things development application platform. What they have in common is that they are able to access the Internet of Things more easily with their vast cloud resources. Perhaps, compared to the development of biased hardware, the real value of the Internet of Things lies in the application of the server.

In the strategic layout of the IoT platform launched by cloud vendors in 2015, Microsoft first released the Microsoft Smart Cloud AzureIoT suite in October, and built a multi-tenant cloud service IoTPaaS platform through Azure, with priority as remote monitoring and predictive maintenance. And three types of enterprise IoT applications such as asset management. In addition to its powerful expansion capabilities and the ability to connect to millions of devices simultaneously, the IoTPaaS platform continues to use these data collected from device sensors for continuous data analysis. Microsoft also allows companies to add IoT kits on demand, such as machine learning, big data analytics and other software analysis tools, and even launch AzureIoT certification to expand the ecosystem.

AWS followed closely with the AWSIoT platform, a beta version that provides IoT rental services from the device side to the cloud, making it easier for businesses to use IoT. In addition to being able to collect the amount of data generated by billion-level devices and support the lightweight IoT communication protocol MQTT, AWS also provides a rules engine to simplify the processing of IoT device backhaul information, and release the IoT development kit SDK, which can be supported. C, JavaScript and open source hardware Arduino. In addition, Amazon has partnered with several hardware vendors to launch the IoT Starter Kit, which allows developers to use these suites to combine AWS's powerful cloud computing capabilities to develop new applications. In addition, in the charging section, the platform also uses a volume-based billing method to charge based on the number of messages posted or delivered to the device from the AWSIoT platform.

In November last year, Intel released the IoT platform reference architecture combining hardware and software, which will integrate more hardware and software products to accelerate the development of the platform. Intel hopes to build an IoT ecosystem that leverages IoT devices, networks and the cloud, and launches a trustworthy and analytics platform that can be combined with a variety of open source big data analytics tools such as Hadoop and Spark to provide a variety of Internet of Things. Analyze the application. Intel CEO Brian Krzanich points out that as our world becomes more intelligent and increasingly interconnected, the Internet of Things will make our lives healthier and safer. He also stressed that as the development of the Internet of Things accelerates, solution providers must cater to the customer's testing needs and need to provide a comprehensive service suite to enable those trials to enter the market more quickly, rather than focusing on providing a single function.

IBM has also invested a considerable amount of time in the Internet of Things. Last year, IBM announced that it would invest $3 billion over the next four years to build a new Internet of Things (IoT) business unit and create an open cloud-based platform to help customers and ecosystem partners build IoT solutions. Obviously, IBM is determined to enter the Internet of Things field. What is the Internet of Things? IBM also has unique insights. Dr. Shen Xiaowei, Dean of IBM China Research Institute, said: "We are moving towards the Internet of Things 3.0 phase. This phase is the biggest difference from the previous IoT. IoT technology and cloud computing technology have been thoroughly developed. Convergence, from business optimization to industrial transformation, and the development of data analysis technology will have a huge impact on the Internet of Things. The real Internet of Things is the data intelligence-driven Internet of Things, which will stimulate new economic vitality, we call it insight Economy. Data analysis will give the real power of the Internet of Things, and the Internet of Things-driven IoT is a valuable Internet of Things.” Currently, IBM is adhering to the commitment of China Tongchuang, using its big data analysis technology and Chinese users, Partners build an IoT ecosystem. Through the layout of the industrial Internet of Things, it has deep cooperation with the automobile, weather, water, health, liquefied petroleum gas and other industries, and has strong alliance with local Chinese partners. Last year, IBM launched its first industrial IoT project in China, and joined hands with the energy industry's Genting Technology to establish a “domestic liquefied natural gas (LNG) industry IoT joint R&D center”.

In addition, HP, Cisco, etc. also launched a new version of the IoT platform. These cloud giants and IT vendors have seized the IoT platform and will make the Internet of Things platform in 2016 even hotter.

The development of China's Internet of Things

With the advancement of national strategies such as "Made in China 2025" and "Internet +", the Internet of Things industry will also usher in a broader space for development. At present, the Internet of Things with application innovation as its core industry is being applied in the fields of people's livelihood and industry. The experience of people's livelihood such as smart pension, smart transportation, and smart medical care is endless. Industrial applications such as industrial Internet and agricultural Internet of Things bring greater economic value. . China will also play a leading role in the formulation of international standards for the Internet of Things architecture, which will help China to propose more new Internet of Things international standards projects, master the right to speak in the development of international standards, and greatly promote China's Internet of Things technology and industry. development of.

Last year, the future manufacturing development plan centered on the Internet of Things has attracted worldwide attention. For example, Germany's Industry 4.0, the US Industrial Internet. GE estimates that the "industrial Internet" market, the connected machinery industry, will increase global GDP by $100,000 to $15 trillion over the next 20 years. In contrast, China’s GDP is just over $10 trillion, compared to $17 trillion in the United States. This means that more factories will automate tasks and connect to the cloud, resulting in significant improvements in industrial production speed and efficiency.

As far as the current Chinese manufacturing industry is concerned, it is in the critical period of upgrading and transformation. The technological advantage of “Internet +” has naturally become a pioneer. Among them, the “Internet of Things” formed by its evolution and integration of manufacturing has attracted attention. . A mature IoT platform is urgently needed on the road from "manufacturing" to "intelligence". However, it should be noted that the Internet of Things itself is a link to solve a big problem. Of course, you should not only look at the architecture of the Internet of Things, but also the architecture of the entire solution.

Although experts in the industry have also suggested that there are still many problems in China's Internet of Things industry, including the fragmentation of industrial links; the lack of unified standards and restrictions on the application level; similar hardware and software, homogenization competition; sensor base support ability is weak.

In this regard, the leaders of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology said that they should promote the core technological breakthroughs in the development of the Internet of Things, promote the innovative development of sensors and chip technology, transmission technology and information processing technology, gradually improve the Internet of Things standard system, and actively promote independent technical standards. At the same time, accelerate the deepening application of the Internet of Things in the manufacturing industry, continuously promote the development of vehicle networking and industrial Internet, and promote the application of machine communication terminals.

Borrowing the retired IBM Greater China Chief Executive Officer Qian Daqun: "This is a wonderful era, the Internet of Things is just getting started, far from mature."
