The Internet of Things (IoT) presents an exciting challenge to enterprises today. They’re full of a great promise of revolutionizing business, but they present significant performance challenges. The amount of data they generate when widely deployed throughout a network can quickly overwhelm traditional networks and architectures.
To cope with the mountains of data, many IoT platforms are based on cloud platforms and increasingly deployed in hybrid cloud environments. — Which can only help to a certain extent. As IoT works best in real-time, you need a network that can ingest, process, and analyze the data at the same rate on the same scale.
