Internet of Things (IoT): Architecture of Internet of Things

Architecture of Internet of Things

Having a good comprehension of a computer system or environment requires knowledge about its foundations and underlying technologies (Gupta and Quamara, 2020). IoT, being an emerging aspect of computing, focuses on introducing many smart devices to the world. IoT has introduced many different smart devices which are used for different purposes. To understand and appreciate how these smart devices work, it is essential to study the architecture of these devices. Furthermore, it is key to understand that different IoT devices have different architectures (Soumyalatha, 2016).  One of the primary issues with the IoT is that it is a large and expansive concept that no uniform architecture has been presented. The Internet of Things (IoT) concept requires a variety of technologies, including sensors, networks, communications, and computation. Many researchers have presented many different forms of IoT architecture (Madakam, 2015).
