As the amount of connected IoT devices continues to grow, organizations across industries are gaining deeper visibility into their operations and tapping into new revenue opportunities. Despite some headwinds in the macroeconomic environment, one report forecasts the number of connected IoT devices to grow by 13% by end of 2024. That equates to a total of 18.8 billion devices. By 2030, this number is expected to grow to around 40 billion devices.
The continued high rate of IoT adoption in organizations drives diverse improvements in operations. However, it places a stress on the teams supporting these initiatives. According to a study of organizations in the United States, 93% are either adopting or planning to adopt IoT solutions. But, only 37% say they have adequate in-house staff to support these. To bridge the gap, organizations have to hire new people, rely on partners to bridge the resource gap, or find ways to make IoT solutions easier and less resource intensive to deploy and support.
To achieve this last point, enter OpenText Aviator IoT 24.4. The 24.4 release introduces significant new capabilities that make it easier for organizations to setup new IoT solutions and deliver the benefits to the business users.
