Much has been said throughout 2014 about the Internet-of-Things(IoT) becoming a significant growth area for telecom operators. While M2M connectivity leverages on both wireless and fiber connectivity to power all the IoT end devices and their connectivity to the cloud, what is going to becoming a bigger business area for service providers is the cloud-based services comprising IoT platforms, data storage and computing services.
All the data that IoT end devices will be collecting will ultimately be stored in huge data lakes, and because there will be huge amounts of unstructured data, providers of IoT/M2M services will require extensive big data capabilities which include the ability to process the data in real time, produce analytics, integrate the processed data to other third party clouds which will then push the data to end-user applications while at the same time, being able to ensure the privacy, security and timeliness of the data and the processes…
