The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) is a segment of Internet of Things (IoT) that's often less visible than our common household objects such as cars, appliances, and central climate control that can be monitored and controlled by computers or smartphones. Dubbed the "fourth industrial revolution" or Industry 4.0, the IIoT is the digitization of industrial assets and processes that connects products, machines, services, locations/sites to workers, managers, suppliers, and partners.
