The relationship between internet growth and implementation of the internet of things

Internet of Things (IoT) is actually not new in the world of information technology. Indonesia became the second largest country in terms of IoT implementation in Southeast Asia, Indonesia only lost to Thailand. The implementation of IoT has been carried out by several local companies such as Blue Bird, Pertamina Patra Niaga and Gojek. The IoT application has also been developed by several children of the nation such as Spekun and Qlue who are currently in the stage of business development. In the implementation of IoT several things become important to pay special attention to, including security systems, platforms, operating systems, communication standards and data analytics. Seeing the rapid development of IoT around the world, the Indonesian government is expected to be able to drive the development of IoT in Indonesia by assisting the development of information technology infrastructure and standardization in the implementation of IoT. In addition, the government is expected to be able to encourage the development of human resources that have capabilities not only as workers' resources but also as creators of new technologies for the development of IoT. In the end, cooperation between the government, the private sector and the support of the Indonesian people is expected to make Indonesia have competitive advantages in the development of IoT, so that it can attract investors to enter Indonesia.
