VARINDIA- INDIA'S FRONTLINE IT MAGAZINE
BlackBerry Limited(NASDAQ: BBRY; TSX: BB) has unveiled a series of initiatives, codenamed Project Ion, to help businesses easily connect people, devices and machines, and derive value from these connections. The project Ion is a cornerstone of BlackBerry’s vision to offer end-to-end solutions for the Internet of Things.
According to Forrester Research, Inc., "New smart products and the systems that connect them will eventually provide users with more personalized experiences. By collecting and combining both personal data and contextual information from the surrounding environment in real time, these products will give individuals experiences that serve them in their immediate moment of need."
"As connectivity costs continue to fall and connected technologies become pervasive, a new market is emerging - the Internet of Things. Billions of connections, generating trillions of transactions and exabytes of data daily, will require platforms that can operate securely on a global scale. No other company is in a better position than BlackBerry to provide the technological building blocks, applications and services needed to enhance productivity, improve real-time decision-making and deliver on the vision of the Internet of Things," said John Chen, Executive Chairman & CEO, BlackBerry.
Project Ion was announced at the O'Reilly Solid Conference (May 21-22, San Francisco). It will offer the resources necessary to access massive amounts of data from multiple disparate sources and distill it into meaningful, actionable information using open-source and third-party analytic tools.......See More
