What is series (#10): what is edge computing?

In previous posts I covered the impact of the Internet of Things (IoT) on the rising volumes of data, what all this data enables in terms of value and the landscape of data management with the place of data lakes. I briefly mentioned edge computing, a decentralized...

What is series (#9): what is a data lake?

As I explain in my IoT book Digitize or Die, the big change of the Internet of Things (IoT) is the fact that it provides ample new sources to capture and leverage previously unavailable data from connected things. The current wave of connecting people with machines...

What is series (#8): what is LTE-M (Long Term Evolution for Machines)?

LTE-M, short for Long Term Evolution for Machines or LTE-MTC, is a low power wide area network radio technology standard for Internet of Things (IoT) applications. It is one of the three LPWA network technologies of the cellular/mobile industry which were standardized...

What is series (#7): what is NB-IoT (narrowband Internet of Things)?

In my post on LPWAN (low power wide area networks) I explained there are two categories of technologies and protocols in this segment of wireless Internet of Things (IoT) communication solutions. The first category consists of LPWA network technologies using the...

What is series (#6): what is Ingenu?

In my overview of LPWAN (low power wide area network) wireless communication technologies for the Internet of Things (IoT), I previously looked at the two best known players: Sigfox with its frequency hopping approach and the LoRaWAN ecosystem with the LoRa chirp...
What is series (#4): what is LoRa(WAN)?

What is series (#4): what is LoRa(WAN)?

LoRaWAN is an open and scalable global LPWA network standard with freely accessible specifications, built upon the LoRa wireless modulation technology. The LoRa protocol is a component in the physical layer of the OSI model and LoRaWAN is a data-link layer (medium...
