Programmable computing thrives in prescribed, predictable scenarios but is too limited for the complex IoT landscape.
The IoT is a monumental data challenge. Cognitive computing can keep up.
Cognitive systems aren’t programmed. They learn from virtually every interaction and the surrounding context to unleash the potential of the IoT.
