How is Big Data Analysis and Internet of Things (IoT) related?

The Internet of Things (IoT), known as the third wave of internet, is on its way to becoming the next technological revolution. According to Gartner, revenue generated from IoT products and services will exceed $300 billion in 2020, and that probably is just the tip of the iceberg.

 Once internet of things gets started in real world, we are supposed to receive data from all directions-from freezer, from toaster, from courier services, from power stations. We will start receiving a huge amount of data a.k.a Big Data.

 Days are gone when we were getting few MBs of data, in near future Bb(Brontobyte) is going to be the case for sensor data measurement. Now, here comes the Big Data Analysis in the picture.


 Big data and IoT are harnessing data and converting regular day to day interactions into transformative consumer experiences.

The impact of Big Data will force companies to quickly upgrade their current processes, tools, and technology to accommodate massive data volumes and take advantage of insights that will be delivered by Big Data.


As per the relation between IoT and Big Data Analytics. The IoT mainly has three components:
  • Things (Networked Sensors)
  • Data Storage
  • Data Analysis
Consider a scenario, suppose you have successfully implemented IoT in your house. There is one pressure sensor on the door such that every time someone knock the door it enables the camera on the front side of the door to capture the image of one who knock the door. In one day you are getting a huge amount of data. Now, imagine you want to know about the one specific person visited your house in some time-stamp. When you run analytics, you don't have to check all your readings from the beginning, in fact, the Big Data Analytics tool gives you specific information of that person with some sort time.

Taking into consideration the enormous impact of IoT on data storage infrastructure, organizations have begun to move towards the Platform-as-a-Service model, a cloud-based solution, as opposed to maintaining their own storage infrastructure.

Once companies have an efficient system to store the data, they need to be able to analyze it. Extracting and managing value from IoT is a big challenge that companies face.

A good analytics platform with the following features: right-size infrastructure, performance, and future growth will solve the problem. With the help of high-quality analytics platforms available today you will soon be ready to take on the challenges and opportunities of a world where the Internet of Things is commonplace.

Narrowband – IOT

Narrowband-IoT (NB-IoT) is a new technology standard, designed to broaden the future of IoT connectivity. Ratified by the 3GPP, a telecoms standards body which works to develop future generation wireless technologies, NB-IoT will soon be deployed by operators across the globe.The technology was developed to enable efficient communication and long battery life for mass distributed devices across wide geographical footprints and deep within the urban infrastructure.
In other words, (NB‑IoT) is a new way of communicating with “things” that require small amounts of data, over long periods, in hard to reach places.
Narrowband IoT (NB‑IoT), also known as LTE Cat NB1, is a Low Power Wide Area (LPWA) technology that works virtually anywhere. It connects devices more simply and efficiently on already established mobile networks and handles small amounts of fairly infrequent 2‑way data, securely and reliably. And the best is, it provides: very low power consumptionexcellent extended range in bu…

Human Microchipping, The Benefits And Downsides

The beginning of human microchipping technology makes it possible, among other things, to instantly verify whether a person is who he says he is. An RFID (short-range radio frequency identification) implant can hold all the information we usually carry in our wallets. It can transmit our identity information as we walk through a security checkpoint, enable us to use public transport and make long lines at the supermarket checkout a thing of the past. The future of microchipping is exciting, with many interesting potential applications. Chips like the ones we now use in our pets could become commonplace in the next decade. Of course, there are a few downsides to the technology. But while some experts have their doubts about whether these chips are appropriate for use in humans, the fact that they could offer many advantages is indisputable.
The RFID chip is basically a tiny two-way radio, roughly the size of a grain of rice, capable of containing various types of information. It is in…

Which are the communication protocols used for IOT?

One of the essential factors of the IoT are communication protocols. One of the key aspects of the IoT is the communication between devices and it will be provided with communication protocols. The following paragraphs will provide a brief overview about each of the Internet of Things communication techniques.
6LoWPAN
6LoWPAN that is a IP based communication protocol is an acronym of IPv6 over Low Power Wireless Personal Area Network. 6LoWPAN, therefore, allows for the smallest devices with limited processing ability to transmit information wirelessly using an internet protocol. The most important detail of 6LoWPAN is IPv6. IPv6 (Internet Protocol version 6) is a 128-bit internet protocol developed due to inability of 32-bit IPv4 in addressing. While IPv6 developed, rapid increase of the number of connected devices has been considered.
MQTT (Message Queue Telemetry Transport)
It was created about 15 years back for monitoring remote sensor nodes and is designed to conserve both power and m…
