SPLIT is a Smart & Start Italia project. It is positioned in the IoT market for companies, effectively supporting the transition from an M2M communication model to an IoT model. The M2M market is expected to grow from 3.2 billion connected objects in 2013 to 18.5 billion in 2022. If we add to these numbers those of the traditional market such as PCs, tablets and laptops, we reach the surprising figure of 30 billion connected objects in 2021 compared to 11.5 billion today.

So in a global market with an expected annual growth rate of 11% CAGR, this particular market, perhaps anachronistically called M2M, being actually the whole IoT for business, will grow by 22% CAGR, while that of traditional PCs, tablets and laptops by 4% CAGR. (Machina Research 2013).

The main obstacles to the adoption of IoT for Enterprise are two types. This marked growth can only occur if the use of these technologies is simplified.

SPLIT with its web-centric and open approach, the use of open protocols, structured APIs simplifies this use and lays the foundation for change.
