Abstract

Technologies and development in the field of Internet of Things (IoT) are growing rapidly. With the digitalization of industries, the importance of IoT-platforms is increasing steadily. The large number of IoT-platform providers on the market is representing a vast selection of IoT-platforms with all sorts of functionalities. Due to the vast selection of IoT-platforms, companies and users have difficulties to select a suitable IoT-platform for their application.

This paper presents the results of a method for the targeted selection and installation of an IoT-platform depending on user’s requirements. For the evaluation of IoT-platforms evaluation criteria are derived for the selection of a suitable IoT-platform. Furthermore, the method includes a guideline, which presents a feasible way for the installation. For the validation of the method a use case has been defined and a demonstrator has been developed.
