Making it easier to understand acronyms and terms tossed around for IoT communications: Part 1
Santa Clara, California-based CEL aims to help product managers and Internet of Things (IoT) design engineers understand the ever changing and complex maze of communication standards and protocols involved with IoT and IoT solutions.
To that end CEL has written a new article, published here today and tomorrow in two parts, called ‘Alphabet Soup: Understanding IoT Acronyms and How to Compare Them’. New ideas and protocols are becoming available at a rapid pace and some companies are pushing technologies that aren’t yet ready for prime time.
As the Internet of Things (IoT) industry continues to expand, new information on emerging best practices, technical specifications and design considerations continues to flood the market, says Matt Smith, head of Cortet Engineering, CEL.

Here at CEL, one of our priorities is helping you navigate through the deluge of information and identify which technology choices will have the biggest positive impact on your upcoming IoT plans.
With that in mind, my next several posts will aim to help your decision-making process by explaining the existing technologies and attempting to demystify the ocean of IoT protocols. I’ll go through a framework for categorising the various technologies and explain some criteria on how to compare and evaluate these. Oftentimes, it’s hard to be sure of what items need to be, or even can be, compared to each other.
