IoT Architecture

IoT Architecture

Sensors and Devices - are the devices that are able to emit, accept and process data over the network. These sensors or actuators may be connected either through wired or wireless. This contains GPS, Electrochemical, Gyroscope, RFID, etc. Most of the sensors need connectivity through sensors gateways. The connection of sensors or actuators can be through a Local Area Network (LAN) or Personal Area Network.

Gateway and network – when having large number of data and devices in the system we should have high speed gateway and network in order to transfer the data over the internet. That network can be Local Area Network, Wide Area Network.

Cloud management – it is management part of the system. when we gather the data from the system (Sensors) it should have storage to store the data. also, cloud can be transferring the data to the end user’s applications.

Application layer – end point of the data, that means humans interactions comes to this stage humans work on this stage with IoT stuffs.
