Tiivistelmä
The thesis is written as a consulting assignment to Helsinki Memory Technologies Oy. The motivation for this assignment was to learn more about mass memories as a part of Internet of Things ecosystem. Additionally, the thesis seeks if there could be the potentially new business opportunities at the target field.
The thesis describes core technologies related to the solid state mass memories in the world of Internet of Things (IoT) at Chapter 2 to 4. Standards chapter covers the benefits of the standardization and the most important corresponding IoT forums. That chapter also summarizes IoT development activities of the key companies. At the end of the thesis there is an analysis of the new business opportunities found during the consulting period, which are grouped into two subsets: the extensions of existing solutions and the new IoT usage models with memory focus.
Conclusion chapter states that the architecture of managed NAND holds a strong position, which is foreseen to remain. This enables the development of IoT support to the mass memories. An additional conclusion is that IoT has reached the critical mass, but its final implementation is not defined yet. The business potential of IoT is estimated to be significant. These conclusions lead to recommendation for continuing studying the role of the mass memories in the IoT ecosystem. The final conclusion is that organizations, which study the implementation of IoT to the mass memory in details, will be well prepared and have an adaptable technical offer.
