IoT Standards with Blockchain

Implement a standardized end-to-end IoT implementation based on best practices and proven successes in IoT across multiple industries. With this book you'll discover the three business strategies for enterprises to adopt and remain relevant in the marketspace —the Customer Engagement strategy, the Business Transformation strategy, and the Business Productivity Improvement strategy. Pick the right strategy for your enterprise to ensure a clear mission and vision is established based on which IoT roadmap can be defined. Subsequently all business processes pertaining to the chosen business strategy are investigated to define use cases where IoT can be adopted to achieve that business strategy.

Start by learning the generic industry perspective on digital transformation using IoT. Then move on to the IoT Standards Reference Model. It’s an abstract framework consisting of an interlinked set of clearly defined components for enterprises to successfully implement an IoT solution. The IoT Standards Reference Model can be applied for IoT use cases across any industry and is kept abstract in order to enable many, potentially different, IoT architectures to be implemented based on the model.

With IoT thoroughly covered, you’ll dive into Blockchain and AI technology. This book will discuss the importance of using private blockchains for IoT use cases. You’ll also discover the five IoT-Blockchain implementation patterns that enterprises can enable for seamless communication between IoT devices, IoT Smart Gateways, and IoT platforms. These patterns help achieve trust, interoperability, and extendibility. Then you’ll work with AI and the IoT Standards Reference Model. The reference model recommends applying AI patterns to generate insights from data and take appropriate actions automatically.

IoT Standards with Blockchain also provides perspective on how and when to apply AI in an IoT Context. In the end, you’ll have a solid methodology to execute large scale, enterprise-level IoT implementations. You’ll have an enterprise digital transformation framework for IoT that will enable your enterprise to operate better.
