Internet of Things: Enabling Device Manufactures cash on Intelligence through Subscription Model/SaaS

Device Manufacturers have been selling their hardware’s with embedded software’s to their customers. Majority of their revenues come from device sales and AMC associated with the devices. However, these devices capture huge set of health data and it has lot of value. Both the manufacturer and the customers are largely dependent on these silos of data to learn about the health of the system, performance and durability, etc. In this whitepaper, we discuss about the volumes of data generated, ways to generate meaningful insights from these data securely at the customer level. Monetizing the insights will essentially lead the device manufacturers towards subscription based business model. Let’s look at how this can be accomplished easily using a SaaS framework.
