Alphabet soup: understanding IoT acronyms and how to compare them

By Matt Smith, Head of Cortet Engineering, Colorado Offices

As the Internet of Things (IoT) industry continues to expand, new information on emerging best practices, technical specifications, and design considerations continues to flood the market.

Here at CEL, one of our priorities is helping you navigate through the deluge of information and identify which technology choices will have the biggest positive impact on your upcoming IoT plans.

With that in mind, my next several posts will aim to help your decision-making process by explaining the existing technologies and attempting to demystify the ocean of IoT protocols. I’ll go through a framework for categorizing the various technologies and explain some criteria on how to compare and evaluate these.
