Realizing the connected world – how to choose the right IoT platform

March 1, 2016

In an IoT world, the whole system has to be error- and failure-resilient, maintaining operation without total blackout and guaranteeing safe operation for critical appliances. Slow internet connections, unstable mobile connections, devices that go offline, and so on impose severe constraints on the design of applications for remote access. An IoT platform has to back up the system and ensure overall service availability. In cases of slow or unavailable internet connections, the IoT platform has to buffer events on site until sufficient connectivity has been restored. To be more independent of backend connectivity, business rules should be deployable and executable on local hubs. To be proof against errors and failures, all crucial systems have to be redundant and available in a hot standby mode. Furthermore, maintaining operations should be possible in runtime to avoid outages and blackouts.
