2 Insight helps organisations realise the opportunities and benefits of Digital and Internet of Things (IoT) technology.
- How can the use of technology impact my business?
- Is there a business case?
- What are the options and how do I select the right technology/solution for my business need
We provide education, advice and guidance (due diligence) to enable you to select the right solution and technology for your business need.
With the large number of different IoT wireless networks1, technologies, protocols and application platforms available, it essential to seek independent advice to ensure that you do not waste time and money adopting a solution/technology that:

– is insecure3 with no means of upgrading
– where the key vendors do not have a viable business model and therefore go out of business

The network of ‘things’ enables/creates opportunities for more direct integration between the physical world and computer-based systems.
The IoT ecosystem is very complex with many different components, technologies and companies involved in delivering an end to end solution. This complexity is illustrated in the following diagram:
