The whole industrial chain of the Internet of Things is divided into three stages, which can be divided into upstream, midstream and downstream.
Upstream refers to the links with high technical thresholds such as chips, electronic components and core algorithms;
The midstream in the industrial chain refers to the terminal products and solutions developed based on upstream products, and the midstream links the core equipment, so it needs certain technical ability and application scenario knowledge;
Downstream of the industrial chain are the application scenarios of various industries, that is, industries where Internet of Things technology is applied, including smart cities, industrial manufacturing, car networking, medical health, agriculture and other fields.
The latest report released by Gartner, a well-known research organization, shows that the global Internet of Things market pattern continues the trend of cloud computing 3A(AWS, Azure, Alibaba Cloud).
