A reference architecture for the IoE

Putting in place an architecture that enables a full mixed IoT/IoE strategy to be implemented will be key to how well organisations perform in the future. Quocirca proposes a basic architecture to help organisations avoid the many pitfalls of embracing the IoT across their own networks and beyond. In this whitepaper:

• What Iot means
• The issues of the IoE
• The wrong architecture
• IoT aggregators
• Using aggregators as intelligent systems
• What this means to the over-all IoE aggregators
• The Iot/IoE reference architecture

The IoE is already here – it is big, and it is growing. Getting the architecture to deal with it will be very costly – in many cases, the costs of replacing bad architectures could break a company. Get it right from the start – embrace change, while ensuring that data traffic is minimised and security is maximised.
