Context based IoT device management

Abstract:

Aspects of the present disclosure relate to internet of things (IoT) device management. A first set of sensor data can be received from a first IoT device within an IoT sensor network, the IoT sensor network containing a plurality of IoT devices, wherein a subset of the plurality of IoT devices within the IoT sensor network are in an inactive state. The first set of sensor data can be analyzed to determine whether an activation condition is satisfied. In response to determining that the activation condition is satisfied, a second IoT device within the subset can be activated, wherein activation leads to collection of a second set of sensor data from the second IoT device.
