The rapid pace of digitization across various regions and the rising demand for data-driven services in a variety of areas are the key factors boosting the internet of things market. The rising number of use cases in several end-use industries to improve productivity and bring process improvements are the key trends expected to bolster the demand for internet of things. The growing demand for cloud computing solutions and recent advances in communication technologies are the key factors expected to catalyze the market over the forecast period.
Safety and Privacy of Data Glaring Concerns in Internet of Things
The mounting concern of data safety and privacy in IoT connected devices is a crucial factor likely to hinder the market to an extent. The privacy of sensitive personal data is a key concern expected to cripple the growth of the market to an extent, if not addressed on a proactive basis. The limited processing power and the lack of security measures, such as encryption, is another crucial factor likely to hamper the demand for internet of things. To this end, there is an emerging need for real-time assessment of failures and data integrity to make IoT useful in several applications areas, such as in automotive and healthcare. Nevertheless, the rising number of use cases in healthcare, hospitality, and retail is expected to open up lucrative avenues for vendors. The integration of wireless technologies in smart locks and next-generation systems has made them more secure and up the convenience. This is expected to boost their demand among property owners, thereby catalyzing the growth of the IoT market.
The rising adoption of IoT in less technology-centric companies is also to augur well for the internet of things market. For instance, the adoption of IoT to improve food delivery is anticipated to open up exciting opportunities for market players.
