IIOT - Industrial Internet of Things

IIoT is the internet of things implemented in industries. However, it is not as simple as the definition. The IoT that we know and understand is primarily designed around the requirements of our home. IIoT is for large-scale industries, and they have precise requirements. The reason why IIoT even exists is that it brings in many advantages or features that regular IoT doesn't.

For a long time, industries were not at the forefront of the digital revolution. And there is a valid reason for this because, in industries, large-scale changes are often risky and can create massive losses to the company if it doesn't work out. Hence a "resistance to change" is often seen in industries when we propose a new technology to them. IIoT has also seen such responses during its initial rollout.
