What is ServiceNow IoT?

ServiceNow offers IoT (Internet of Things) capabilities as part of its broader platform. ServiceNow IoT enables organizations to leverage data from connected devices and sensors to enhance various aspects of service management, automate processes, and gain insights into the performance of assets and equipment. Please note that features and capabilities may have evolved, so it's advisable to refer to the latest ServiceNow documentation for the most up-to-date information.

Here are key aspects of ServiceNow IoT:

1. Connected Devices and Sensors:

• ServiceNow IoT allows organizations to connect and integrate with a variety of IoT devices and sensors. These devices can range from industrial equipment to IT infrastructure, providing real-time data and insights.

2. Data Ingestion and Processing:

• The platform supports the ingestion and processing of data from IoT devices. ServiceNow helps organizations manage large volumes of data generated by connected devices and turn it into actionable information.

3. Integration with ServiceNow Platform:

• ServiceNow IoT is integrated into the broader ServiceNow platform. This integration enables organizations to correlate IoT data with other service management processes, such as incident management, asset management, and field service management.
