8 TIPS FOR BUILDING A COST-EFFECTIVE IOT SENSOR NETWORK

Interviewed by John Edwards from Computer World on building cost-effective IoT sensor networks:

[...] companies that address sensor network deployment via a crawl-walk-run approach tend to achieve the greatest cost efficiencies, says Mark Benson, CTO of Exosite, a Minneapolis company that develops IoT software. "Key to building a cost-effective sensor network that scales in an efficient manner are [organizations] that start small, learn quickly and grow over time, all while ensuring that they are focusing their measurement efforts on the parameters that are closely correlated with finding anomalies and trends that make an impact on the business.

Also published in German for Computerwelt:

Der Schlüssel zu einem wirtschaftlichen Sensornetz, das effizient skaliert, sind Organisationen, die klein anfangen, schnell lernen und im Laufe der Zeit wachsen. Dabei konzentrieren sie sich beim Messen auf die Parameter, die eng mit der Suche nach Anomalien verbunden sind und Trends, die sich auf das Geschäft auswirken.
