“Advances in artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning are creating exciting business opportunities based on the value inherent in IoT data. As a result, barriers facing IoT application developers will fall dramatically in 2018, enabling them to realise this value.

Whether access to IoT-ready APIs, addressing protocol, connectivity or security unknowns, or just eliminating the need for physical devices during development, time-to-market will shrink ushering in a new generation of IoT-enabled applications and experiences.

A simplified and pain-free development process will unleash a wave of developer-led creativity not seen since the introduction of the iPhone.”
