Recently, the IoT ( Internet of things) industry has been creating a lot of wave in the technology niche because of its seemingly limitless possibilities, its indeed an awesome technology but it sure has its flaws that has made it not to be fully utilized and how does RUFF, which is the subject of this article, tends to fix such flaws?, lets get down to the issue of the moment.

THE PROBLEM

As stated above, IoT is a fantastic technology but the flaws are damaging, one of such is the issue of security and consistency, which is a huge problem and the fact that it is built on a centralized technology makes it even worse, the nodes are redundant and accompanied with mixed up clouds, blockchain solve such issues as consistency and security but unfortunately, it does has its own flaws too with the IoT technology, such as lack of infrastructure, high technical threshold, and excessive technical risk. With all these issues pointed out, there’s need to address the scalability problems that abounds in the industry.



Another issue to address is the fact that IoT is located in a closed isolated network, there is no standard for equivalent nodes, and the result is a break down, there’s simply not enough homogeneity among IoT connected things, this discontinuity is known as fragmentation. To give a better view of this, i will explain using a personal computer that interact with servers through the http protocol presented on the browser, such interaction between computers is called standardization and IoT fails to attain this and only by constantly standardizing fragmented products will it be possible to unify communication among nodes or create a consensus network among nodes.

THE SOLUTION

Drums rolling, introducing the solution to the flaws, RUFF, which was founded in 2014, this shows they already have something to work with and with edge computing at its core, the security of Internet of things is guaranteed by the OS’s security , Ruff’s local ad hoc network is also decentralized, in such local application network, once the main application node fails, the application logic will pass to another node and continue for completion, this creates room for consistency, Ruff also uses a symmetric key, and the key is not transmitted over the network and its token will be the benchmark for incentives, spending, and trading within the Ruff public chain ecosystem, thereby driving up the value of the token.





Ruff community has grown over the past few months to encompass the work of tens of thousands of developers and their goal is to replace original embedded operating system and is the industry’s most prevalent IoT operating system, the good thing is that they have a pretty awesome team, team members have also been listed for Forbes China’s 2017, not to mention the notable awards that they have earned since their establishment, the token is listed on coinmarketcap and growing in a healthy fashion, to be part of this community, click on any of the links below.
