Isn’t it amazing when you can control your bedroom curtains’ movement in a single remote or when you can switch off your heater even when you are out of your home?
Welcome to the Era of Remote Sensors, Technologies, Software and What not!
The only vision is to control your things and surroundings around you or even a little far away through some technology. This vision was given a name and that’s what we call as Internet of Things. It’s one of the hot topics that has been going around everywhere be it the web, your home or your workplace.
So how does it work and what is this Internet of Things. It’s a process or a concept wherein you just connect a simple on and off switch to the internet and to the devices controlled. This can be used to control any device around you starting from your night lamp to the biggest of engines like the airplane engine.
“By 2020 there will be over 26 billion connected devices”.

So What are These Connections?
The connections are going to be between people to people, people to things and things to things. If a connection can be made, then it will be connected. Saying this, developing these connections has a greater impact on the lifestyle of ourselves and also others.
The development being huge raises a doubt among us about the Security. The data captured in these connections, will be secured and how about the data storage? These doubts will still be going rounds when someone is taking up the topic on IoT. With companies developing different strategies to handle security and storage challenges, we always have someone to bring on solutions for the challenges faced.
