Interview with Wienke: #IoT Business Models
With the ability to deliver the state of machines and analyze that information in near real-time, the Internet of Things facilitates new business models beyond typical CAPEX purchases.

IoT Day Slam 2020: The Anatomy of a Digital Twin
#DigitalTwins provide a digital representation of physical objects such as people, machines, and environmental systems. Due to their capabilities, digital twins are often found at the heart of many #IoT platforms.
Fighting COVID-19 with Digital Twins on the Moab platform
The Moab #IoT #DigitalTwin platform I created is now open source with the intent to help non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and non-profits in tackling the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Digital Twins and Groups
It’s easy to think of #DigitalTwins as representing discrete systems & subsystems, like an industrial #robot that builds a car in a factory. The reality is that physical entities like humans, machines & environmental systems don’t live in a vacuum.
Digital Twins & Subsystems
If you’ve ever worked with an #IoT platform, you might have noticed it typically has you define a simple schema or #DigitalTwin Model for an entire person, machine or environmental system.
The Digital Thread
To create an historical record of what happens to an instance of a #DigitalTwin throughout its entire lifecycle, you represent this with something called a #DigitalThread.
The Digital Twin Instance
It’s time to create a #DigitalTwin Instance of a physical entity that is derived from a Digital Twin Model.
Digital Twin Models and Rules
As part of my series on #DigitalTwins, I’ve discussed the creation of a Digital Twin Model which defines a type, or class of physical entity from which instances of digital twins are derived. Once you’ve added telemetry, virtual, static, or command properties, it’s time to make use of this #metadata with rules.
Digital Twin Models and Static Properties
The static properties enumerated by a #DigitalTwin model represents #IoT #data that typically doesn’t change.
Digital Twin Models and Telemetry Properties
Your #DigitalTwin Model and its telemetry properties are an essential part of the #IoT #data flow from device to #analytics.
