The Internet of Things is real today, and it will only get bigger as more devices, sensors, automobiles, and entire countries go online in the years to come. In this talk, Ben Hindman will explain the types of data-processing systems required to keep up with all the events that these "things" will generate and send back to data centers, and how this new data architecture is changing the requirements around infrastructure management. If you're going to run next-generation applications that connect millions of devices to a handful of complex distributed systems, you need an operating system that's designed for scalability, automation, and simplicity.
