Factors influencing the growth in the Internet of Things (IoT) include improvements to the Internet infrastructure and the declining costs of both devices (premoninately sensors) and data. The switch over to IPv6 has provided a supply of IP addresses for the many uniquely idenifiable IoT devices and the various cloud-based services emerging are designed to help manage sensors and the data they produce. The costs of IoT components is expected to be at a point that connectivity will become a standard feature in the future. Alternative cellular networks specifically established to support the IoT are offering cheap data rates and cheap hardware for high volume throughput, creating an easy and low cost entry point to the IoT. M2M Connectivity works with many customers building solutions that form part of the emerging IoT. These solutions for industrial automation and monitoring, enable data collection and transfer, remote configuration and download of applications, diagnostics, control, network connectivity and more.
