Internet of Things has surpassed the hype phase and according to Gartner, in the next 5-10 years it is expected to become the mainstream. Estimates of this growth predict that IoT market shall grow to $8.9 trillion with over 212 billion connected things by 2020. With so many devices in question, the ultimate success of IoT lies in the ability of these devices to seamlessly connect and share information securely with each other. With this primary requirement, one cannot overemphasize the role of software technology as an enabler for IoT devices to carry out the chores and achieve the goals. Attendees got insights on the various software components that make an IoT application and also on some frameworks that help in building IoT apps.

4. Factors to consider while building an IoT application
• Shift in mindset, from focusing on devices to focusing on
services based on user data.
• Apps to work off a central network than an individual app for
every service
• Security to be at the core including consumer privacy
• Concurrency is an inherent property, not optional

6. Need for IoT Framework
• To support the interaction between "things“
• To enable distributed computing and development of
distributed apps
• To hide machine level interactions through API
