At this year\u2019s GeekWire Summit<\/a>, technology industry leaders will talk about disruptive and innovative approaches to address some of the industry\u2019s biggest challenges. Topping the list: How automation is changing the way we do business.<\/p>\n Self-driven cars, connected robotics, and the Internet of Things (IoT) require data management at an unprecedented scale. Add virtual reality to that, along with 3D printing, wearable technology and a whole host of other innovations, and you\u2019ve got what Gartner calls The Digital Mesh.<\/a><\/p>\n From the backend perspective, we call it IoT Scale.<\/a><\/p>\n By definition, IoT is the network of physical objects or \u201cthings\u201d embedded with electronics, software, sensors, and network connectivity, which enables these objects to collect and exchange data. IoT Scale refers to the enormity of data collected, analyzed and responded to in real-time to automate these \u201cthings\u201d in the designated way for the person using them \u2013 and the technology automating them. Creating a platform that enables this type of rich communication across billons of data points demands the ability to scale at an unprecedented level.<\/p>\n IoT scale involves a matrix of systems and services deployed simultaneously around the globe, activated with precision accuracy and the ability to not just reach specific devices, but to facilitate communication among them in real time. Then, collecting and analyzing big data to make predictive or reactive decisions based on business objectives. At Centric Seattle<\/a>, we drive this scale by leveraging cloud-based deployment strategies, Microsoft\u2019s Azure<\/a> platform and cutting-edge tools to create a rich messaging platform. By augmenting that with custom .NET solutions, a robust reporting engine and predictive analytics, we can provide pinpoint visibility on how your customers are utilizing their devices and embedded applications.<\/p>\nWhat It Is<\/h3>\n
