This document summarizes key points from a presentation on accelerating IoT projects from pilot to production. It discusses the growing market for IoT devices and services. It also identifies important considerations for bridging pilots to production, including visibility, impact, scalability, reliability and security. Example progression models are provided, from development tools to pilot systems to production. Success stories demonstrate how open source platforms like Eclipse Kura can help move solutions from prototypes to commercial implementations.
