The worldwide Internet-of-Things (IoT) market will grow from USD 625.2 billion in 2015 to USD 1.29 trillion in 2020, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 15.6 percent, report IDC in association with Aeris.
The report titled 'Technology spotlight' highlighted key factors business leaders should consider when selecting an IoT solution. The installed base of IoT endpoints will grow from 12.1 billion at the end of 2015 to more than 30 billion by 2020, it noted.
The disruptive impact of digital technologies and the transformation they bring is being felt across organizations and industries worldwide, leading to the emergence of the "Digital Economy."
Key amongst this is the IoT, which is poised to transform the way businesses generate and consume data while providing insights previously unavailable due to various constraints.
A key factor driving adoption of IoT is the increasing realization of the value that IoT brings along with improving customer experience. Most businesses today are either at a starting point in their IoT journey or are in some stage of considering an IoT deployment.
