IIoT refers to the inter-connectivity of sensors and other smart objects, along with technologies such as big data and machine learning to collect data, analyze it, and make more informed and rapid decisions, either by presenting the data to humans or automatically making changes. IIoT carries with it the promise of increasing efficiencies, reducing downtime, and improving safety for industries such as manufacturing, utilities, transportation, mining, energy, agriculture and more.
