With the potential of billions of new connected things bringing a tidal wave of new data, businesses want a better grasp of expected ROI, cost, and scalability, while IT managers struggle with integration, interoperability, and management concerns. Digi-Key’s objective is to provide its engineering community and suppliers a path to their solutions.
IoT is a mega technology trend that will not only be an endurance test for legacy systems but will also shape the fate of companies large and small in many different industries. Estimates are for 50 billion IoT connected devices by 2020 and 100 billion by 2025.
There are a multitude of companies and proposed network solutions. Digi-Key are committed to helping its customers navigate the plethora of choices and find the best solutions for their applications or use cases.
In an effort to accelerate IoT adoption by its customers, Digi-Key offers the latest and greatest IoT-relevant products and services in its Internet of Things (IoT) Resource Center. IoT products span many different categories, including hardware, software and cloud and connectivity services. Digi-Key are working hard to bring together and bundle these products and services in meaningful ways that integrate into more complete solutions.
Integrated solutions for Industrial
- Factory automation
- M2M applications
- Remote monitoring
- Hazardous materials
Industrial settings are increasingly using the internet (Industrial Internet of Things or IIoT) to identify and correct problems and inefficiencies sooner, saving both time and money. By leveraging sensor data, machine-to-machine (M2M) communication, and automation technologies, the IIoT uses big data and machine learning technologies to optimise and streamline industrial processes. With IIoT there is significant potential to improve automation, industrial control, quality control, supply chain traceability and overall efficiency, and asset performance management.
