The IoT software platform is a software system that integrates multiple components such as IoT devices, sensors, data processing, applications, networks, and cloud services. It can provide comprehensive IoT services, including device management, data management, security management, application management, user management, and other functions.

The role of the IoT software platform is to organically combine various components of the Internet of Things, forming a unified whole, and can monitor, manage, and control the entire system. By integrating and managing various IoT devices, sensors, etc., the efficiency of data collection and processing can be greatly improved, and stable support and services can be provided for various applications. Meanwhile, the IoT software platform can also provide functions such as data visualization and analysis, helping users better understand and utilize data.

With the continuous development of Internet of Things technology, IoT software platforms have also experienced rapid growth. Early IoT systems were mainly composed of independent devices and applications, without a unified management platform. With the development of technology, IoT software platforms have gradually become an important component of IoT systems and have been widely applied.
