IoT Development Trends

IoT Development Trends

IoT has become a key enabler of digital transformation across industry verticals. Given the increased investment in and maturity of the technology, applications of IoT in connected vehicles, public utilities, and industrial manufacturing are expected to enter a new realm of integration and promotion.

  • · Connected vehicle

  • The connected vehicle field is gradually evolving, from initial use only in high-end vehicles, to inclusion as a standard service in most modern vehicle models. Leading automobile manufacturers are engaged in exploring greater involvement in mobility services, while governments step into connected vehicle supervision. A notable example of this is China's regulations on new energy vehicles.

  • · Public utilities

  • The continued application of IoT will greatly improve public utility operations, with smart metering and environmental monitoring seeing rapid maturation.

  • · Industrial manufacturing

  • IoT has become a necessity for industrial manufacturing enterprises transforming from producers to service providers. As a result, IoT is the focus of many pilot projects, many of which target remote O&M, as well as improved O&M efficiency and onsite labor costs.

Business Challenges

Concurrent Access Support

Diversified protocols complicate access. For reams of collected data to be reported quickly to the cloud, the platform itself must possess high-concurrency processing capabilities.

Data Insight Extraction

IoT involves reams of diverse data from various systems. This requires efficient data processing and analysis to improve operational efficiency and help create new services and business models.

Industry Enablement

As IoT is being applied to traditional industries with inadequate IT capabilities, customers are forced to invest in infrastructure development, resulting in slow service rollouts and market opportunity losses.

Security and O&M Efficiency

Security threats still exist for more complex IoT networks. Efficient O&M is hard to achieve due to the rudimentary monitoring, logging, and data security measures, as well as limited third-party compatibility.

Typical Scenarios

Introduction

Two options are available to help customers support up to hundreds of millions of IoT connections.

Benifits

  • Option 1: Creating a Connection Processing Module on the IoT Platform

    Applies to one-stop pre-integration service scenarios. The customer can create a connection processing module to quickly integrate multiple devices, support the smooth expansion of hundreds of millions of connections, and implement an O&M-free platform.

  • Option 2: Deploying and Migrating an Existing IoT Connection Processing Module on Basic Cloud Services

    Applies to scenarios in which a customer has already developed an IoT connection processing module. The customer can use a series of basic cloud services provided by HUAWEI CLOUD, such as ECS, CCE, ELB, DMS, and DDS, to deploy the existing module on the cloud.

Introduction

The reference architecture of IoT big data can be unified to help customers quickly gain insights into IoT data.

Benifits

  • E2E Process

    E2E IoT data processing capabilities include data injection, real-time processing, storage, analysis and calculation, and mining and presentation.

  • Scenario-based Design

    Cloud services required for different IoT scenarios are provided, including CS for SQL queries, MLS for preventive maintenance modeling, and CloudTable for time series data.

  • Cost-effectiveness

    The most suitable data storage, query, and analysis architectures and solutions are matched according to specific customer requirements. For example, decoupling of computing and storage for non-real-time services can be provided to reduce big data analysis costs.

Introduction

Rich infrastructure as a service (IaaS) and platform as a service (PaaS) layer services facilitate quick creation of IoT applications.

Benifits

  • Basic Scenarios

    ECS and CCE are used to implement bearer and horizontal expansion of application clusters.

  • Intermediate Scenarios

    Highly scalable and reliable middleware services are used to reduce the burden on O&M. Middleware services commonly used in IoT scenarios include RDS, DDS, DCS, and DMS.

  • Advanced Scenarios

    Services such as FunctionStage, ServiceStage, and DevCloud are used, allowing customers to focus on business innovation.
