The Internet of Things can best be imagined as a concentric series of capabilities that start at the edge with sensors and devices of various kinds, whose data is collected, aggregated and filtered through one or more gateways until the data is presented centrally for operational and analytic purposes. Analytics of one sort or another are typically taking place across this ecosystem and there are a number of good reasons – discussed in this paper – why it will make sense to use the same analytic software across this environment.
