Connected Industry Season’s Greetings

2017 proved to be the Digital Industry revolution as this year marked steady progress throughout. Industrial businesses continue to explore and invest in IoT solutions, but the pace has been more measured than frenzied. IDC forecasts that IoT spending will grow by nearly 15% in the new year while a study by Verizon shows accelerating implementation of connected devices in manufacturing and transportation among other verticals. The reality of Industrial IoT is that sensor, connectivity, data analytics and machine learning technologies continue to get cheaper and more powerful while digital transformation remains to be the biggest hurdle of all.
