Appendix A. Conclusion

Our aim with this report was to help you better understand IoT, teach you how to work with some concrete IoT platforms, provide different perspectives on the topic of IoT, and provide comparative analysis between various industrial IoT platforms. In Chapter 1, we gave you a theoretical framework to reason about concepts such as data-driven computing, IoT, edge computing, IoT platforms, key quality attributes associated with scalable architectures for IoT, and evaluation criteria for IoT platforms. We also provided a case study to showcase the transformative power of IoT. Subsequent chapters elaborated about concrete IoT platforms as well as an edge component to make the text of Chapter 1 more comprehensible.

Our selection of IoT platforms was just one possible sample. We have presented two major commercial cloud IoT offerings (AWS IoT and Azure IoT), one open source unified IoT platform (Mainflux), and a special edge component (EdgeX Foundry). Both cloud-centric products contain their own edge component, although they could work with EdgeX Foundry, too. Mainflux may be executed everywhere. There are many other IoT platforms (both open source and commercial) beyond the ones covered in this report. Here’s a nonexhaustive list:

Enterprises will need to judge their use cases to select the proper IoT platform when implementing IoT-based solutions. There is no one-size-fits-all ...
