The Convergence of IoT with Big Data and Cloud Computing

Abstract

During the past few years, there were advanced developments in the field information technology, such as cloud computing, big data, and the Internet of Thing (IoT). Cloud computing is the practice of using a network of remote servers hosted on the Internet to store, manage, and process data, rather than a local server or a personal computer. It enables both users and new organizations to run the software without installing it, which in turn offers redundancy, stability, and security. Big data provides the overall important information within organizations, social networks, and the IoT, and provides continuously increased number of data in the form of structured, semi-structured, and unstructured. As the technology is moving forward, there is convergence between cloud computing, big data, and IoT. It creates a new platform for the development of various fields such as medical, industry, education, socioeconomic growth, and weather monitoring. It does not only emphasize changing the way of living and doing business, but also keeps its eyes on generating a massive amount of data. The IoT and big data have a close bonding. Many new devices are selected for producing a fair share of the data, whereas cloud computing is capable of controlling the analytic requirements and storage.
