Last but not least, we need to tackle the concerns on data privacy and potential data security breaches with IoT and cloud-based solutions. These aspects should be treated as a top priority in the development and adoption of IoT devices and services.
Event organizers, a hospital tech team, a security operation analyst – if there’s one thing that gives them the shivers, it’s most probably when technical issues pop up just as things get mission-critical. In an ideal world, technology would never fail at those most inconvenient moments. But we don't live in an ideal world, or are we?
Whereas a human can call the doctor when something is off, and describe the symptoms, a device just keeps going until it breaks down. By then it is too late to ‘save the patient’. Proactive maintenance is probably the best way to give users the peace of mind that nothing will go wrong. A dashboard with live statuses of all your infrastructure can do wonders for your operability, profitability, and peace of mind.
As technology is becoming more complex, young digital natives are entering the workforce. Youngsters who keep up by slowing down. The importance of a healthy work-life balance is rising, and people are less bound to physical spaces such as the office. At the same time, we manage our lives more and more via our smartphone. The result? The need for remote solutions and automated platforms has skyrocketed (and so have the answers to it). With the milllenial revolution, the implementation of cloud solutions is rising even more and transforms businesses to their core.
The greatest strength of cloud technology is that it allows you to easily access your
solution anywhere and from any device that can be connected to the internet. With the Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) idea on the rise, most businesses want to be able to easily share information across devices – in the office or in the field. Cloud services and remote access to your tools also enable you to move fast and react immediately when needed. It means less travel hours, saving you considerable time and money.
of the interviewees not comfortable with connected AV equipment indicate authority and privacy issues as the main reason
Relying on local solutions entails that your data, hardware and software platforms are all yours. It keeps critical and sensitive data in-house. But in the end, even local solutions/infrastructure can be hacked…
And did you know that most cloud data centers actually employ such high-standard security measures, they’re reaching beyond the affordability of most businesses? So, in fact, in some cases your data might be safer in the cloud than on a server (or a PC) in your offices.
IoT can be a big help in the prevention of these sudden technical breakdowns by providing all the data and tools for informed decisions and predictive actions. According to this report from McKinsey, IoT-based predictive maintenance helps to reduce downtime by up to 50%, lowers maintenance costs by up to 40% and significantly extends the lifetime of your equipment.
At Barco, we're all set to jump on the train, so we can enable flexible virtual solutions for your company. Not just remote, but hybrid. Click to discover our hybrid solutions.
From fitness trackers to connected cars and smart city infrastructure, the Internet of Things can be found all around us. But what can it bring to you as an AV solutions provider?
Trendwatchers are certain that over the next decade the adoption rates of Internet of Things (IoT) will flourish as it settles in the core of our personal lives. But also increasingly in industrial B2B applications, from intelligent soda vending machines to, who would have thought, smart laser projectors and video walls.
We surveyed our AV customers about the topic. Are they cloud believers or is something holding them back? Is the Internet of Things the next big thing in their businesses, or would they rather keep it at a safe distance for a while?
Remember the beginning of the new millennium, twenty years ago? You might remember it as if it was yesterday, or you were perhaps still busily playing around in your nappies at the time. Either way, the 2000s came with rapid digital shift that was all about mobilization and connectivity. Today, organizations everywhere are turning to connected solutions to store, guard, and remotely process their data. Literally anything can be a connected device now. The future is in the cloud.
