IOT Middleware Market Overview


The global IOT middleware market was valued at USD 10.1 Billion in 2020 and projected to reach by 2028 with a CAGR of 18.3% during the forecast period, 2021–2028.


Internet of Things (IoT) middleware is software that acts as an interface between IoT components, allowing communication between components that would otherwise be unable to communicate with integrated technologies. IoT middleware is responsible for the structure, format, and encoding of data sent across multiple levels, devices, and sensors. IoT middleware will serve as a standardised interface between the many devices, sensors, operating systems, and applications that will make up the IoT ecosystem architecture.


In a 'cyber-physical' environment, IoT middleware is a combination of integration capabilities and platform that provides the framework for linking devices, applications, users, and services. It's a simplified picture of the software components needed to bridge the gap between enterprise integration and M2M and reap the benefits of the internet of things. IoT middleware is available from vendors for a variety of platforms, including application management, device management, connectivity management, and others.


It will also provide APIs for physical layer communication without revealing any information to the higher layers. IoT middleware also plays a role in the security of the apps that are integrated with it. Access control and data authentication should be included in IoT solutions while ensuring user and device privacy.


Market Dynamics


Drivers

  • Rise of IoT middleware in manufacturing industry


IoT allows manufacturers to connect machinery and control systems to gain a deeper understanding of the manufacturing process, which is predicted to drive IoT middleware adoption in the manufacturing industry. IoT in manufacturing, a growing number of machine-to-machine connections, and the growing need for factory efficiency on the floor as well as in the field have all benefited from the expanding acceptance of industrial technology. The importance of the Internet of Things is growing, especially among manufacturing organisations that have implemented automated solutions.



  • Growing need for centralized monitoring


Organizations have huge infrastructure requirements, as their processes are interrelated. IoT devices and control systems are commonly used to track assets, monitor various activities, and provide real-time data. Many organizations get large volumes of operational data, generated from intelligent devices, machines, equipment, and other remote devices connected to the IoT platform. Organizations can evaluate the data and use it for centralised monitoring of their infrastructure and asset management. Centralized monitoring provides extensive performance analysis by providing real-time, continuous, and standardised task-level data.


Restraints & Challenges

  • Absence of uniform IoT standards


As enterprises' current systems do not match global connectivity standards, IoT connectivity between devices and products is one of the most significant stumbling blocks for all industries and their clients. The absence of interoperability among existing systems increases the challenges and costs of deploying an IoT platform dramatically. The long life lifetime of common equipment complicates interoperability even more, necessitating costly retrofitting or replacement to work with the latest technologies.Opportunities

  • Rising adoption of IoT in SMEs


Many SMEs and large corporations throughout the world are striving for improved efficiency at lower prices. They want to take use of the IoT platform's advantages to improve the scalability and efficiency of their business processes. IoT solution providers are pursuing aggressive business strategies, such as strategic acquisitions, to enhance their service offerings in the IoT space in order to cater to the industry-specific requirements of clients, particularly SMEs present across major verticals such as BFSI, retail, healthcare, and public.


Impact of COVID-19


Introduction


The global coronavirus pandemic has had a negative impact on supply chain hubs. The COVID-19 epidemic is wreaking havoc on global supply chains and logistics, as a geographic lockdown has been established, disrupting operations for the vast majority of industries. The retail and food industries are the ones with the most problems. Despite the fact that necessary commodities are excluded from the lockdown, their availability has been hampered by a lack of staff to operate on production lines, supply chains, and transportation. This opt-in tool for developers will encrypt tokens and track users as they pass other people using the Bluetooth technique.


Furthermore, many countries will have to minimise their dependency on China and look to other countries for assistance. As a result, the cost of IoT devices will climb once more. The price of IoT gear will increase by at least 15-20% as a result of the COVID-19. Telenor Connexion's network, Ericsson IoT Accelerator for worldwide connectivity, and Sony Network Communications Europe's smart IoT services will collaborate in April 2020 to improve real-time locating and tracking solutions for various sectors, including healthcare.
