Edge computing, increase in the number of mobile devices, advanced sensors, and the affordability of Cloud are triggers that have well fuelled the growth of IoT in India.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIoT technology has significant strategic impact on organisations. 60% of Indian enterprise Organisations will be leveraging IoT for competitive technology and pricing advantage\u201d\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.idc.com\/getdoc.jsp?containerId=prAP44077918\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>said\u00a0Ranganath Sadasiva<\/strong><\/a>, Director Enterprise Research, IDC India, &#8220;Over half of the survey respondents consider IoT imperative to stay &#8220;digitally fit&#8221;. Even, as businesses in India realise the benefits that IoT brings to their enterprises, the challenges around security and complexity related to changes in business processes cannot be ignored.&#8221; He added.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>As enterprises begin to realize the value, RoI, efficiency and productivity that IoT can bring, commercial solutions will gain traction and the enterprise will emerge as the largest market for IoT adoption. Not only in India, worldwide, but IoT adoption is also more on the industrial front than the consumer segment.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"Is-Infrastructure-in-Dire-Straits?\"><strong>Is Infrastructure in Dire Straits?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Interoperability of devices, multi-cloud environments, feudal network architecture, and adoption of new age technology like AI, edge computing and blockchain continue to increase the demand for setting up IoT tech stack among Indian enterprises. Enterprises are relying on IoT service providers not only to build a foundation of IoT infrastructure but also to enable long term sustainable managed services.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Although, The Government of India is doing its best to strengthen the infrastructure, currently, India has less than 2% of penetration of fixed Broadband, with a majority of the population from urban areas. A roadblock to 5G network, India lags behind US, China and South Korea on optical fibre connectivity. Only 25% of telecom towers carry optical fibre, while in US, China and South Korea its 65%-80%. This highlights the need \u2013 of the hour \u2013 for rapid fiberisation in India. No doubt initiatives like <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/lavellenetworks.com\/blog-bharatnet-connecting-digital-india\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bharat Net<\/a><\/strong> (fibre connectivity to every Gram-Panchayat) in India will boost robust fiberisation in the near future.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, the right of way (RoW) challenges that telcos continue to face, could potentially slow down establishing next-gen digital infrastructure, especially amid growing demand for 4G services and telcos trying to embrace 5G network-\u00a0 an imperative element of the IoT ecosystem, which offers next-gen connectivity possibilities.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"The-Future-is-on-the-edge\"><strong>The Future is on the edge<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.networkworld.com\/article\/3224893\/what-is-edge-computing-and-how-it-s-changing-the-network.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Edge computing<\/strong><\/a>, with a network, is one of the key enablers of IoT.
