IoT and the ML Connection Transforming Data with Intelligence

The intersection of machine learning and IoT is creating a need for new ways of thinking about -- and understanding -- data, sensors, citizen data scientists, and a host of other issues. In an increasingly turbulent technology environment, new ideas are often to be found at the intersection of things. In such cases, the contradictions between trends and possibilities appear in high relief. Within the data center, one such intersection is that between machine learning (ML) and the internet of things (IoT). ML is becoming an essential player in a growing array of process areas involving image recognition, natural language processing, forecasting, prediction, and process optimization.
