These and other insights are from the Evans Data Corporation Internet of Things Development Study 2015, Volume II published earlier this month. Evans Data’s Internet of Things Study 2015, Volume I, published in July is summarized in the post, Analytics, Cloud Computing Dominate Internet of Things App Developers' Plans. The surveys’ sample size of 509 developers includes a globally-based audience of technical professionals. Only developers who have worked on projects for connected devices, are currently working on projects for connected devices or planning to do so within the next six months are included in the sample.

A third (31.5%) of all Internet of Things (IoT) developers are primarily focusing on the Evans Data Corporation Internet of Things Development Study 2015 and analytics projects, according to Big Data, Volume II. Among other key findings: one in five (21.7%) IoT developers are working on eCommerce-related projects with slightly more (11.7%) developers working on Business-to-Consumer projects than Business-to Business projects (10%); two in five (42%) IoT developers are using sensors, such as acceleration and vibration, when creating new apps; and security of IoT devices (18.7%) and variety of data (13.6%) are the two areas of most concern to IoT developers. The study surveyed over 500 developers globally and only included developers who have worked on projects for connected devices or plan to do so within the next six months.
