Hello readers,

Welcome to this week’s IoT For All newsletter! Today, we’re diving into the ways that IoT can help preserve historic buildings, the ins and outs of what an eSIM is and does, and whether IoT can solve some of the largest challenges in the welding industry.

📖 Top Articles

Historic buildings have long captivated the world with architectural details and a glimpse into a past life few could imagine. As such, their preservation has become a priority throughout communities. Renovating these older structures isn't without complications, though. Fortunately, the Internet of Things (IoT) has lent itself to a data-driven approach to safeguarding yesterday's wonders.

Industrial welding businesses are experiencing rapid change and growth but also encounter several challenges. To stay competitive, companies must adopt innovative solutions such as the Internet of Things (IoT). This network of interconnected devices can share data and is transforming manufacturing, logistics, and other industries. IoT holds similar promise in welding.

An eSIM, or embedded SIM, signifies a new approach to connectivity, specifically tailored to IoT’s unique demands. Unlike the standard consumer eSIM, which focuses on mobile device compatibility and flexibility, IoT eSIMs meet industry standards and requirements for secure, long-term, resilient connectivity in diverse environments.
