What is a Hyper-Connected Device Revolution…How does it affect end-users? The growth of IoT (Internet of Things) devices has created a hyper-connected reality, through which a multitude of
devices and systems interact seamlessly, transforming our way of life—a veritable revolution of devices and connectivity. IoT devices allow end-users to essentially take the internet wherever they
go. With thousands of diverse types of IoT devices impacting people where they live, play, and work—whether in businesses, enterprises, industrial spaces, medical spaces, or otherwise—the
possibilities are simply endless…

Hype is easy, substance is harder. That’s the harsh reality bearing down on us as we rush to capitalize on the endless possibilities of edge computing. The Gartner Hype Cycle—which tracks
innovations, our expectations, and our ability to deliver on them—places edge computing in the “Peak of Inflated Expectations” phase. Next will come the “Trough of Disillusionment” before we embark
on the coveted “Slope of Enlightenment,” where the technology will come of age, and we can reach optimum productivity…

Whether in the enterprise or the consumer space, trusted computing should form the backbone of your networks to ensure digital connectivity is safe and secure. Standards are essential to
establish this, comprising specifications, guidance, and software developed by internationally recognised bodies such as the Trusted Computing Group (TCG). By implementing these standards, users
can rest assured any component found within a computer network can be reliably verified—keeping their network safe from malicious activity…

Physical security systems have always been critical to data centers. But now these systems—including surveillance cameras, video management systems (VMS), access control systems (ACS),
automated license plate readers (ALPR), and intrusion systems—are connected to IT networks. As such, they can be a source of vulnerability for cyberattacks. On the flip side, connected
physical security devices collect a vast amount of information that data centers can use for valuable insights far beyond security…

Enabling Agriculture 4.0 with Satellite Agricultural practices are largely the same today as they were in the 1970s. Back then, farmers oversaw the industrial agricultural revolution that
brought high-yield crops, hybrid seed varieties, synthetic fertilizers, pesticides, and other mechanical infrastructures. The challenges farmers are facing today make the techniques of yesteryear
obsolete. Issues like decreasing margins, increasingly complex regulatory requirements, greater scrutiny from consumers, growing complexity of machinery, and changing weather patterns that are
increasing the incidence of droughts and extreme storms weigh on the minds of farmers looking to meet the yield needs of their customers…

When connecting Smart Buildings and the Internet of Things (IoT), hard restrictions exist related to network power, bandwidth, density, and reach. An electrical signal, whether delivering
electricity or data, is bound by physical limitations that in the past were only overcome by making transport media larger, more rigid, harder to work with, shorter, and more expensive. These
factors have harsh negative impacts on businesses trying to embrace digital transformation and corporate sustainability goals…

Without a doubt, the proliferation of the Internet of Things (IoT) has forever changed the way we live, work, and play. It’s a phenomenon that continues to grow at an exponential pace as IoT
adoption gains traction throughout the world. IoT is so pervasive, in fact, that it has spawned a pair of subsections: Critical IoT and Massive IoT. The former concerns applications that require a
constant, data-rich connection to operate—with use cases that telemedicine, first responders, and factory automation…

When smart home rivals Apple, Amazon, Google, and IKEA agreed to collaborate on IoT technology, their decision signaled a structural change in market sentiment. In settling on the Matter
protocol, they elevated a common interest in connecting multi-vendor smart home devices above proprietary and walled-garden strategies. A similar dynamic is playing out in the enterprise and
industrial IoT sectors. Here, digital twins and predictive analytics are the key technology blocks around which consensus is forming…

The concept of a smart home, powered by the Internet of Things (IoT), has come a long way since its inception. What was once a futuristic idea has now become a reality, transforming the way we
live and interact inside our homes. Smart home technology has rapidly evolved, offering numerous benefits as well as presenting new challenges that require thoughtful consideration. Significant
Growth in the Smart Home Market… But is This the Case For Broadband Service Providers? The smart home market is experiencing significant growth, driven by advancements in technology and
increasing consumer demand for convenience, comfort, and energy efficiency…

There are over 8 billion people on planet Earth today. That’s a lot of mouths to feed. To make matters worse, the annual population growth rate has been decreasing year over year since
1969—from over 2 percent to under 1 percent in 2022. And that doesn’t include the nearly 7 million additional deaths that have occurred over the last three years as a result of the COVID pandemic.
While a slowing global population growth may seem somewhat positive for the planet, fewer qualified and able-bodied workers draws into question who’s going to take care of the 8 billion of us, the
economy, or world in the days to come…
