The Higher Performances

The next thing that could get improved in the coming time is the IoT performance. As we would know,
the IoT is nothing else, but the digital transformation of something exiting much before. On the other
hand, if we discuss the IoT – we should know that it may combine the digital, embedded and mechatronics
systems with the web connectivity. For instance, if we apply the faster internet communications to our
IoT solution, it would definitely cope with the higher performances. Also, any of the mentioned
technological advancements could get improved and if the embedded system gets the better
microprocessor or more memory – it would obviously offer the better performances to the entire IoT
system. The tendencies over the globe would suggest that our electrical, electronics, mechanical and
computing solutions are getting better and better developed every single day, so for such a reason – we
can predict that the entire IoT systems would get with much higher performances in the 2019!

The Bigger Marketplace
It would seem that the IoT marketplace would develop at a quite fast pace. Some indicators would
suggest that in the next year or two we would have about 50 billion IoT devices getting connected to the
huge network. This fact could open up so many doors to the IT industry actors to make the good profit
and also empower their economies. Such a tendency may bring with itself a plenty of social impacts as
well. For instance, there would be the large IoT community worldwide that could deal with some kind of
new culture hanging on the web and using the smart devices. The social impacts could go that far away
to change the ways how people think and live. Anyhow, this would not happen that rapidly, but rather
more slightly – so we can expect that the 2019 would bring some changes and not the entire boom in
such a sense.

The Need for Standardization

The IoT marketplace is growing so fast, so would that mean we should make some sort of the order
within such an area? Definitely yes! Some tendencies would indicate that there is the strong need for the
international standardization of the IoT landscape. The experience would suggest that any kind of the
standardization could bring us more quality regarding our organizational and management demands.
Even the NIST would stress on the need for international cybersecurity standards for the IoT technologies
and such an initiative would cope with so many well-researched and developed overviews. The
standardization usually means the better productivity and effectiveness because of its keen to deal with
well-developed organization of both – people’s activities and production processes, so far! As it’s known,
the standardization of the IoT is the big job, so we believe that the 2019 would make some progress on
in such a fashion.

The More Optimal Production Cycle

Indeed, the IoT solutions would pass through some production process and this kind of stuff could get so
complicated. In order to simplify such a requirement we should look for more sophisticated approaches.
The good production cycle should bring us the excellence as the outcome and from such a point of view;
we would need to think smartly how to organize our production. The standardization can help here a lot,
but what we need the best is some kind of strategic planning and intelligent scheduling of the entire
