Cisco - Intro to IoT

Benefits of cloud computing

It enables access to organizational data anywhere and at any time; It streamlines the IT operations of an organization by subscribing only to needed services; It eliminates or reduces the need for onsite IT equipment, maintenance, and management.

PII

Personal information, described in United States legal fields as either personally identifiable information (PII), or sensitive personal information (SPI),[1][2][3] as used in information security and privacy laws, is information that can be used on its own or with other information to identify, contact, or locate a single person, or to identify an individual in context

Global variables

Type of variable that can be used within any function of a program.

distributed processing

a phrase used to refer to a variety of computer systems that use more than one computer (or processor) to run an application. This includes parallel processing in which a single computer uses more than one CPU to execute programs.

Features of automation

a process that is self-driven; a process that eventually eliminates the need for human intervention

fog computing

an architecture that uses edge devices to carry out a substantial amount of computation, storage, communication locally and routed over the internet backbone.

Arduino

an open-source physical computing platform that can take input from a variety of switches or sensors to control physical objects

cloud services

any service made available to users on demand via the Internet from a cloud computing provider's servers as opposed to being provided from a company's own on-premises servers

microcontroller

provides IoT sensors with access to the network

home gateway

provides auto discovery services for smart devices that are connected to the network

developing a security policy

security best practice involves defining company rules, job duties, and expectations

Design and programming

skills that help with prototyping

ML

technology is a subset of AI that uses statistical techniques to enable computers to "learn" from collected data

AI

technology that has the intelligence that is demonstrated by machines in a way that mimics human cognitive functions

Blockly

technology used as a visual programming tool to create a program by connecting colored blocks
