Internet of things strategy

An internet of things strategy is a plan for using smart devices on purpose rather than one gadget at a time. For a big company, it's a long document. For a small business, it's a short list. What problems would a device solve? Which ones are worth the cost? How will they connect to your other tools? Who gets the alerts, and who keeps them updated? A cafe might decide it needs fridge alarms and smart plugs on timers, and nothing else this year. A function venue might add smart locks tied to bookings. Writing the plan stops you buying devices nobody checks. It also keeps your security tidy, because you know every device on your network.
