Top IoT Trends and Predictions for 2019 Based on previous data, Statista has predicted that IoT (Internet of Things) connected devices install base will increase a fivefold in a decade from 2015-25.

In simple words, IoT is a network of smart devices connected with the Internet. It provides a platform for the next digital transformation of our life, business, and everything related to it. We march ahead to make the Internet even faster than today. The Internet is more accessible than before via a range of computing & non-computing devices beyond our imaginations. The realization of smart homes, smart cities, and everything in a smart way we encounter in our dayto-day life are dreams of citizens, governments, and every business seeing promises in the IoT arena. Henceforth, my intentions to write anything on IoT can grab the attention of many and may inspire small to big players to invest in IoT right now to shape a bright tomorrow. Hiring a reputed Mobile App Development Company can help you to getting going easily.

IoT Cannot Exist in Isolation & Will Push All Related Technologies to the Next Level If you carefully examine IoT applications existing and operating in practice today, you may realize one fact that IoT technology cannot exist in isolation. IoT implementations demand support of tons of other directly or indirectly related technologies. For instance,


Sensor Evolution: A neural network is one of the significant stacks of IoT technologies. Various sensors are at the foundation of the neural network, and without sensors existence of IoT application is a nightmare. Therefore, our focus will be on enhancement of sensors in various terms, including efficiencies, power consumptions, support to new devices, the mingling of new applications, and the emergence of powerful algorithm to retrieve more useful information.

Superior Connectivity: The next thing in the neural network after sensors is connectivity. We need network solutions for better connectivity based on various metrics. A superfast highway on a wired network. So, we need something more than existing optical fiber technologies. Similarly, Wi-Fi, NFD, and even satellite connectivity in smart cities like big IoT projects are plenty of scopes to take new dimensions and directions. However, scope in cellular network growth is immense because more than 70% connections in IoT applications exist on mobile and other wireless connections. 5G is a big promise in this direction, and 2019 will embrace 5G soon in advanced countries. Thereby, superior connectivity is not now a dream only, but implementations already have started.

AI & Associate Technologies: Artificial Intelligence or AI and associated technologies, including Machine Learning, Deep Learning, Natural Language Processing, Voice & Image Recognition software, M2M communication have significant roles in the functioning of IoT applications. Therefore, the evolution of these core to peripheral technologies can lead to the betterment of IoT application itself.

Big Data & Processing: It is a known fact that with the increased use of IoT application, data generation, storage, and various data processing are in demand. Big Data is a nearby phenomenon taking place in our cloud and other networks. With Big Data analytics, data mining, data analysis, and other database related processes, we will have highly efficient and functional prediction engines to forecast things in advance. Businesses, government, and enterprises will use such IoT generated data explicitly, even paying for it legally. Thus, IoT data selling will provide an earning opportunity for many to sell data to the sales and marketing agencies or professionals.

IoT Will Push Us Above & Below the Cloud Computing We know several processes based on cloud services demand two things first, an uninterrupted connection and time for data exchanging. For various IoT applications, cloud services are prohibitive because application demands prompt decisions within a fraction of a second or millisecond.


Providing such prompt services through Cloud Computing seems insane. Therefore, we have to move toward a hybrid module where local computing power remains intact and grab all possible benefits of cloud computing. It is edge computing where local computing units functions in real-time and capable of taking prompt decisions whenever needed, despite being an active member of a cloud network. It is only the way to deal with time-sensitive events happening in the computing network and for instance, stopping a driverless car when a pedestrian approaches it during crossing road without any prior intimation or using an existing system for it. I think it is talk about beyond cloud computing, as we are going back to local computing network for fast, precise, and real-time decisions. The next thing is connected Clouds, which is a thing above the existing cloud technologies. Such advancements are possible because IoT applications are consuming a variety of cloud services. It also involves various cloud service providers in an expanded network. It has variations in different cloud environment too. For instance, public, private, and hybrid cloud environment. In such complexities, we pursuit security, performance, and seamless experiences. Fortunately, increasing trends toward connected Clouds are promising for IoT applications a lot to work on multiple Cloud environment.

IoT Will Create Smart Homes in 2019 It is a prediction that the smart home market will reach nearly 40 billion by 2020. The smart home may contain smart appliances, lighting, heating, air conditioning, TVs, computers, entertainment systems, big home appliances, including washers, dryers, refrigerators, freezers, security systems, and a lot more. The ultimate benefits of smart home devices equipped with IoT application are to bring a greater degree of automation, security, energy efficiencies, low operating costs, and convenience. It is blessing for aged people and disabled people who are not capable of managing various normal dayto-day tasks without external hands.

IoT Will Progress toward Realization of Smart Cities and Beyond The concept of a smart city is nothing but an extension of a smart home. Here, you will find,      

Smart transportation and mobility with driverless vehicles, smart parking facilities, and congestion sensors. Autonomous building with smart thermostats, smart fire detectors, connected controls. Smart utilities like water monitoring, smart electric grid, and smart LED lamp posts. Smart environment management with green buildings, air pollution sensors, weather prediction monitors. Smart dynamic and adaptive city infrastructure, including waste sensors, structural sensors, and disaster management. Smart public engagement and security with a smart emergency camera, facial recognition system, and wearable detection.


Conclusion: Investment in IoT is a wise decision, and you can start simply with your business or organization. IoT applications could be at a small level to city or country level, but it needs two things compulsory. One is mobile applications supporting IoT operations and monitoring. The next thing is IoT applications based on the Internet involving web or cloud-based applications. These two essentiality demand active role of software development team.
