The Internet of Things IoT also typically referred to as the Internet of Everything IoE consists of all the web-enabled devices that collect send and act on information they acquire from their surrounding environments using embedded sensors processors and communication hardware. These devices typically referred to as "connected" or "smart" devices can sometimes talk to different related devices a process referred to as machine-to-machine M2M communication and act on the knowledge they get from each other. Humans can interact with the gadgets to set them up provide them instructions or access the data however the devices do most of the work on their own without human intervention. Their existence has been made possible by all the tiny mobile components that are available currently as well as the always-online nature of our home and business networks. Connected devices additionally generate massive amounts of internet traffic as well as a lot of information which will be used to make the devices useful but can also be mined for other purposes.
