To back up their claims, businesses can migrate applications between the cloud and the node.

Market Drivers

• Access to low-cost, low-power sensor technology

Sensors are the most important components in loT devices. They help in generating information about a physical event or state. Sensors can measure everything from their surroundings, including orientation, motion, light, sound, humidity, and temperature, to biometrics, such as blood pressure and heart rate. These sensors will drive the practicality of the loT across industry verticals for various application areas.

• Various strategies by key players

The market is fragmented. With a major market share, the key players focus on enhancing their customers. This industry is considered a lucrative investment opportunity owing to enormous consumer interest. The enterprises invest in future technologies to gain substantial expertise, achieving sustainable competitive advantage. For instance, in April 2022, Samsung announced a collaboration with ABB to expand SmartThings, Samsung's smart device hub, to assist more residential and commercial devices. By cooperating with other companies, Samsung's SmartThings is evolving into a one-stop shop for monitoring connected devices.

Market Restraints:

• Privacy and security concerns over the use of loT

Privacy and security is the primary concern for a lot in smart city projects. To solve privacy and security challenges, stakeholders (security professionals and smart city planners) must address issues holistically to ensure the challenges do not continue plaguing the rest of the smart network. IoT would collect much data about personal movements, actions, and purchases.

Market Opportunities:

• Increase in smart city initiatives globally

The rapid explosion of lot and smart cities initiatives is enhancing the need for smart security solutions, such as Perimeter Intrusion Detection Systems (PIDS), to secure boundaries. In addition, there is a high focus on efficient energy management solutions to ensure proper metering and minimize wastage. The transportation infrastructure in smart cities is also inviting the contribution of loT technology vendors to ensure proper monitoring and control, minimize carbon emissions, and provide better route planning and optimization.

• Increase in the demand for connected loT devices

Internet connectivity and connected devices present organizations with tremendous opportunities to extract relevant data, such as consumer behavior in retail outlets, for real-time marketing analysis, sensor-driven decision analytics, and instantaneous control response in complex autonomous systems. IoT connects companies and governments with all smart prospects, such as smart cities, smart transportation, and smart utilities, and enables them to get location-based data in real time.
