UK IoT Network Surpasses $20B Supported by Scalable VPS Infrastructure

The Internet of Things (IoT) landscape is rapidly evolving worldwide, marked by significant advancements and challenges across regions. The UK has emerged as a global leader in IoT innovation, leveraging advanced VPS infrastructure to support over 70% of its IoT network, enabling smart cities and industrial automation with low latency and high uptime. Meanwhile, The Things Industries in the Netherlands celebrates a decade of fostering a pragmatic and interoperable IoT ecosystem that emphasizes collaboration over hype. In the United States, the convergence of IoT with 5G and emerging 6G networks is unlocking new operational efficiencies and real-time analytics capabilities, highlighting a shift toward edge computing to meet growing data demands. India’s IoT revolution is being propelled by strategic collaboration with Taiwanese R&D, which provides critical hardware innovations tailored to local conditions, especially in agriculture and manufacturing. However, the rapid expansion of IoT devices raises concerns about infrastructure capacity, as increasing data volumes from billions of connected devices, including connected cars, strain existing networks and require scalable, secure solutions to sustain growth.
