ITHarriet Green, head of IBM‘s Internet of Things business, has said the company seeks an industry-specific strategy to help organizations manage connected devices, Fortune magazine reported Tuesday.

Stacey Higginbotham writes IBM will make its Watson cognitive computing technology available to customers through the company’s Internet of Things Foundation cloud-hosted service.

The offering will include an application programming interface and predictive and textual analytics, machine learning and video and image recognition tools, Higginbotham reports.

The company also plans to establish a facility in Munich to house its Watson IoT division and help clients build new platforms with the cognitive computer.

IBM estimates there are more than 9 billion existing Internet-connected systems globally and forecasts the devices will generate as many as 2.5 quintillion bytes of data a day in the next 15 years, the report said.
