This document discusses deploying the Internet of Things (IoT) from a telecommunications perspective. It outlines some of the key challenges in deploying IoT over wireless and wired mobile networks, including higher uplink traffic, sudden network spikes, bandwidth-hungry applications, security threats, lawful interception limitations, and mass device management and billing needs. The document also briefly introduces narrowband IoT over 4G networks, cloud-based IoT platforms, the IoT ecosystem, and ongoing university projects and efforts to embrace IoT to advance the country.
