This chapter summarizes key phases and considerations in designing and
implementing an IoT system. Most of the details of component design
considerations are covered in the respective chapters on edge, communications,
cloud, security, and data models. The chapter provides a more holistic overview of
the overall IoT system design process. The first few sections summarize the
process and the design considerations, followed by a detailed case study of a
complete project.
IoT Project Design and Implementation
Major phases in an IoT project life cycle may be roughly categorized as (1)
definition of system purpose and objective, (2) design of the system architecture,
(3) implementation, and (4) deployment and operation.
The process of designing and implementing an IoT system typically includes the
following major steps and iterations:
Definition of the objectives and purpose of the project
Conceptual design and system architecture
