Chapter Fifteen Synopses

                After reading chapter fifteen of the Foundations of Modern Networking, I can say that I learned a lot about the benefits and implementation of IoT (Internet of Things) Architecture. I found that an IoT architecture can benefit IT with a useful checklist with which to evaluate the functionality and completeness of vendor offerings, provides guidance to developers as to which functions are needed in an IoT and how these functions work together, and It can serve as a framework for standardization, promoting interoperability and cost reduction. As for the implementation of IoT, I learned that it can be done so through open source such as IoTivity, or thorough vendor options such as the Cisco IoT System and the ioBridge. Overall, I felt this chapter was a good read and gave me more insight into the internet of things.
