This Week In Data - What is the Internet of Things?

Welcome back to another episode of This Week In Data! If you missed any of our previous episodes, you can watch them here. In this week's episode, we're answering the question, "What is the Internet of Things?"

Most of you have probably been hearing about the Internet of Things (or IoT as it's commonly referred to for short) in some way and may be curious as to what it is. In essence, the Internet of Things is the concept that anything with power can be connected and made accessible via the internet. The wearable device Fitbit is a great example of an IoT success story. The Fitbit is a wearable device like a watch that tracks your health activity and connects wirelessly to a smartphone or computer. So how could IoT relate to your business? Adam and Devin guide you by discussing the importance of IoT, how it's evolving and how you can use it effectively in your business environment.

Before the boys dive into IoT, Adam and Devin also discuss several updates from Microsoft such as updated security in Azure, the first cumulative update for SQL Server 2016 and where Gartner ranks Azure in the world of cloud. Learn about these topics and more in our latest episode:
