Big Data in the Internet of Things IoT Sensor Data Analysis and Edge Computing
Prem Tank, Rituraj Jain · Advances in computational intelligence and robotics book series · 2025
The rapid technological advancements have given machines the power to think and decide. This has been largely fueled by developments in 5G, IoT, Big Data, Cloud, Edge Computing, and AI technologies such as Machine Learning, Deep Learning, and Computer Vision. The chapter on IoT discusses exponential growth and is fueled by edge computing, which makes data processing faster and secure compared to a traditional cloud system. It identifies some edge computing applications on AWS that involve Big Data architectures with low-cost techniques for denoising and sensor data fusion to achieve actionables. The chapter takes its audience through the integration of the technologies, as facilitated by an architecture diagram, as applied in smart buildings, vehicles, traffic management, factories, and surveillance systems, discussing challenges such as privacy and security and the avenues that will be open to innovations and future research opportunities within IoT-enabled Big Data systems.
