Question 3

The internet of things

The internet of things (IoT) is the network of physical objects, devices, vehicles,
buildings and other items that are embedded with electronics, software, sensors,
and network connectivity that enables these objects to collect and exchange
data.
This impacts the business Depending on how tech-savvy your company is
you may already be recording in a biometric digital age way. On the other hand,
you might still be storing data physically on spreadsheets. The internet of things
implications on businesses in the future would be developing a cloud plan,
replacing old technology, increasing capacity management, becoming network
dominant. This in turn would mean the business would be fully transformed into
operating more digitally and would rely on the technological environment.

tuning your car as more machines speak to each other and

systems integrate, you will no longer miss an oil change (the

making of smart cars to simply life), monitoring your baby in a
different room will be made better due to the wide spectrum of
gadgets, wearable tech will be developed to help you do
everyday tasks better. Smartphones will become not only
everyone's portal into the Internet of Things, but a complete
remote control to your life (if it isn't already). Every enterprise
needs to take mobile even more seriously and have it as a key
point of consideration of future connected efforts.
