Enterprise IoT: A Definitive Handbook
A**D
Great primer on IoT and excellent how to guide
The book is a great primer on IoT and an excellent guide on how to use cloud services from IoT platforms to build applications. The book is very well organized, it has 3 parts – the first part lays the foundation of architecture, devices, platforms, analytics, cognitive, solutions, protocols etc.. and also covers emerging standards like AllJoyn and show where the industry is heading.The second part is about use cases, coming from m2m and manufacturing background, I could easily relate on the manufacturing phases and move towards the Industrial IoT . The third part of the book is about how to build solutions by using cloud services - analytics, real time streaming, time series databases, device sdks etc.. from platforms like Amazon, IBM and Microsoft and even open source like kakfa, cassandra, spark etc.My only negative comments are:1. There are few typos in the book which sometimes come in the way of great content. I would recommend authors to proof read this thoroughly and get this corrected.2. The comparison chart didn’t render well on kindle, although there was a link provided which worked over the web.3. The product names for AWS IoT have probably changed and match those with latest one.I recommend this book along with "Abusing the Internet of things" book which talks about security aspects in detail for implementing IoT.

Good book for IoT Apps
Its a good book to understand IOT and how to build applications. I expected the book to be longer and cover various other use cases around heath care and talk about IOT and digital initiatives.

IoT nailed it
Everyone is talking about IoT, devices, protocols, cloud, applications but it’s very difficult to find a single book which does justice to this subject. Everyone seems to have their own agenda for IoT.The author knows his stuff in and out and does a great job explaining enterprise concepts, the architecture, uses cases minus the technical jargons and keeps it simple. The last chapter of the book talks about implementing applications using AWS, Azure and IBM IoT which is very well explained. The security configurations for AWS IoT were very well explained and I was able t try out a sample even without a physical device. The comparison of cloud services at the end was really informative I was not able to find such information online. With just under 150 pages, this is the best good you could find on IoT.I would even say this book would be an essential contribution to everyone who needs to understand and build IoT applications and understand the big picture. highly recommended.

Good info, hard read
Loads of good information, but be prepared to wade through really poor writing. Grammar appears to be a distant second with subject/verb agreement issues and other general editing problems to be encountered on every page.

iot for the enterprise done right
I am involved in various iot initiatives and deployments, building large scale enterprise iot solutions requires a different strategyas compared to conventional methods, i found this book to be on a right track and suggest how to evolve use cases,get the high level iot design and implementations done right. A must read for dealing with large scale iot developments

Good starter kit
Introduces the concepts and provides references to further reading. It can use more pictures doing illustrations. Various use case have been broight up - they can be highlighted with boxed format and pictures / figures for visual memory.

The missing bible in IoT
One of the best works on this subject. Very well written. This book gets down straight to business with a great view on architecture, very compelling use cases, especially the manufacturing one and most important on how to realize the IoT use cases.

Good balance of topics
Good balance of topics: use cases, technology, products in the market. Strongly recommend for folks wanting to develop a better understanding of enterprise IoT

Definitive what ?
Only few pages about generic concepts. A lot of incorrect details. Just an overview you can read everywhere online. Is this an handbook ? NO. Is it a "Definitive Handbook" ? ABSOLUTELY NOT. I'm going to send it back.

Good read
This is the first book that I have ever read on Internet of Things. And this book didn't disappoint me and has a lot of content that a beginner would look for. However, there are some grammatical errors throughout the book that distracts the reader. Hoping that the publishers/author address this issue before the next version of this book is released.
