Industrial Internet Application Development

By: Alena Traukina, Jayant Thomas, Prashant Tyagi, Veera Kishore Reddipalli

Overview of this book

The Industrial Internet refers to the integration of complex physical machines with networked sensors and software. The growth in the number of sensors used in industrial machinery has led to an exponential increase in data being captured for predictive analytics. Industrial Internet Application Development is a practical guide for developers who want to create applications that leverage the full capabilities of IIoT. You will get started by learning how to develop your first IIoT application and understanding its deployment and security. Once you’re familiar with what IIoT is, you will move on to exploring Edge Development along with the analytics aspect of the IIoT stack. In later chapters, you’ll get to grips with the deployment of IIoT applications on the Predix platform. As you cover these concepts, you’ll be able to identify key elements of the development framework and understand their importance while considering architecture and design for IIoT applications. By the end of this book, you will have the skills you need to deploy IIoT applications on the Predix platform and incorporate best practices for developing fault-tolerant and reliable IIoT systems.

Summary

So far, the journey for the IIoT, and the IoT in general, has been a mixed bag of some successes and many learning opportunities. However, major accomplishments in basic infrastructure have already been accomplished in areas such as cloud offerings for IoT-specific solutions, and carriers providing all ranges of wireless communications. This will certainly springboard IoT development and adoption in the coming years. Still, much work remains to be done in key areas such as addressing security and privacy issues on the cloud and high-performance computing and low-power consumption on the edge. These are the areas in which most of the work will be done and successful players will emerge over the next two years.
