The challenges of IoT life cycle management
As just introduced, the primary challenges in developing and managing an enterprise IoT solution are implementation complexity and full life cycle support. In terms of complexity, an enterprise IoT solution has multiple technology components from the IoT device to the enterprise application, which are typically sourced from various hardware, software, and service vendors. Moreover, many businesses rely on their IT departments to develop and manage their enterprise IoT solution, which are not typically resourced to handle the complexity of the development and interworking of the IoT solution technology components and manage the full IoT solution life cycle. This is typically addressed by working with a third-party system integrator service company that is well-versed in the IoT technology ecosystem and can develop, deploy, and monitor a full enterprise IoT solution based on the business requirements. This outsourcing can be expensive over...
