An increasing number of applications are accelerating IoT adoption across multiple markets and verticals. These include intelligent buildings (lighting, HVAC, physical security, and asset tracking), healthcare (staff alerts and patient monitoring), smart cities (smart parking and waste monitoring) and schools (smart locks, security cameras, and vaping detectors). However, despite a noticeable increase in adoption, real-world IoT deployments are challenged by a complex and costly array of network protocols, equipment, and disparate management tools.
