And here’s an interesting statistic about this rockstar of technology: The number of connected devices in the world was 8.4 billion,…

I built a scenario for a hybrid machine learning infrastructure leveraging Apache Kafka as scalable central nervous system.

In the gold rush to “monetize” IOT, organizations are frantically installing sensors on everything that moves (and some things that should not move), hoping that someone in the business will figure out a way to get financial value out of the resulting data[1].…

All of us are accustomed to the smart wearables, such as the ones we wear on a jogging track. We also have seen the concept of smart homes turn into a reality. We have seen a farmer sort and track his flock of sheep with the help of a mountable RFID device. 

Every physical element around us (including ourselves) have become a part…

A refined version is how you create and deliver value to customers. Your strategy tells you where you want to go and the business model tells you how you are going to do it.



In this time of industry 4.0 with Digital Transformation, businesses are getting disrupted faster than they get established. We all know what Apple did for music, Uber did for taxis and Airbnb did for…

Everyone’s talking of the Internet of Things (IoT) and the impact it’s started to make even on day to day lives. Yet, more than anything, it’s also becoming increasingly clear that analysis of the IoT data will be the differentiator between those who simply collect data and those who “use” it to drive their businesses.…

Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT)  s a system that integrates complex machines with high-end software programs and sensors for analyzing data to increase productivity and reduce operational time and costs. IIoT systems differs from Internet of Things (IoT) systems. Failure in IIoT systems would lead to disastrous situations where as in IoT systems the failure would barely lead to emergency situations. IoT systems are designed at consumer level device such…

It has been estimated that the Internet of Things (IoT) will contain 26 billion devices by 2020 (according to Gartner, Inc.), while Cisco’s CEO puts the commercial opportunity from these devices to reach $19 trillion. But behind the glorious financial opportunities is a new community of data, and a complex testing challenge to help support those devices. Usually, IoT is categorized based…

The Internet of Things refers to the network of physical objects which are embedded with software, electronics, network connectivity and sensors which enable the objects to exchange and collect data. Internet of Things is defined as an invisible and intelligent network of things that communicate indirectly or directly with each other. The internet is used to facilitate experience and efficiency. Internet of Things enable the communication between the physical objects and other…

Smart organizations are using the power of data science and data produced by embedded sensors and machine devices to better measure performance, discover patterns, prevent problems, and improve…

The Internet of Things (IOT) will soon produce a massive volume and variety of data at unprecedented velocity. If "Big Data" is the product of the IOT, "Data Science" is it's soul.…

Data science and business analytics works with both structured and unstructured data. Yet the future belongs to unstructured or semi-structured data from both internal and external sources.
