Overview and Comparing 3 IoT Development Platform

1. Introduction
   IOT plaform is a combination of IOT devices connected to other devices and a cloud-based applications and is used to transmit data using the Internet transfer protocol. IOT platform works to connect the sensor array to the network data and information use an application to create data with the number of lots can be generated with hundreds of sensors or more.
   
   
2. Important features from an IOT Software Platform
   - Device Management and Integration Support
   - Information Security
   - Data Collection Protocols
   - Data Analytics
   
   
3. Current IoT Software Platforms
   In this section we will presents a summarized IoT Software Platform feature comparison:
   
   
   In the table above we could see that each IoT Software Platforms are already developing their device management that must address the four fundamental categories, which are:
   a. Provisioning and authentication
   b. Configuration and control
   c. Monitoring and diagnostic
   d. Software updates and maintenance
   
   The next feature is the integration of IoT Software Platform with REST API which allows to requesting system to access and manipulate textual representation of web resource. Security in IoT also important to prevent cyber-crime, therefore IoT Software Platform needs to develop the security using link encryption (SSL, RSA-2048, AES-257, etc.). MQTT, HTTP, and HTTPS are few of transport protocol used in IoT Platform data collection.
   There are 5 type analytics in IoT which are:
   a. Descriptive
   b. Diagnostic
   c. Predictive
   d. Prescription
   e. Automating
   
   Then some of IoT platform support data visualization to ease us reading data. Because we able to visualizing the data as graph or chart.
