As the complexity of IoT deployments and the number of devices increase, simulating various components before a system is brought online is key to ensuring a successful project. Initially designed for cloud testing, IoT simulators are responding to this shift to edge computing by adding features that integrate with edge services.

 

In this article, IoT developers will learn:

• Why choosing the right protocol requires understanding what kind of simulation is needed

• How simulators can evaluate how an analytics engine behaves under real-world conditions

• Which solution can examine how IoT components perform as the number of devices grow
