The range of steps in the flow of IoT data from the device to the presentation of analytic results was covered in this book. This is a wide range of topics, but it does all fit together. The following diagram maps this out and shows how each chapter in the book relates:
General IoT data and analytic flow as covered in this book.
In order to understand a complex system, such as the flow of data from IoT devices, or the flow of risk and money in a Collateralized Debt Obligation (CDO), as depicted by the IMF in the following diagram, you need to map out the process. Then, you need to understand how each stop along the way contributes to the end result. This can help avoid unprofitable projects - and worldwide recessions.

We discussed the many challenges with IoT data. It is notoriously messy, and will often have missing and incorrect values. In Chapter 1, Defining IoT Analytics and...
