Walmart keeps store operations cool with IoT
Walmart manages temperature, operating functions and energy use in stores using a network of connected Internet of Things (IoT) devices.
The discount giant currently has more than 7 million unique IoT data points across its more than 4,600 U.S. stores. Every day, this network of connected devices sends almost 1.5 billion messages regarding a variety of store conditions. To help manage this massive volume, Walmart has built proprietary software designed to use advanced algorithms to detect anomalous events in real-time and take action to fix issues quickly.
