Re: IOT customers
Mpouraryan,
Now there is an interesting question...whether the value(worth) of human beings can be preserved -- better yet extended-- as the adoption of new technology constantly changes their value(price), values(abstract and general priorities, and value(meaning and significance). May the answer turn out to be something that the people who have to live with it like.

Re: IOT customers
As I reflected upon your thoughts, all I hope is that the value of humans is never ever forgotten in this on-going transformation process--which admittedly is challenging and scary to be witness to. The need to remain hopeful is ever more so now. I hope I am not too naive in my assessment.

Re: Don't fence me in....
One of the lessons of transformation is that one has to be willing & able to admit that they're wrong--if Edison was not wrong for 10K times, we would not be here, right?
Happy Day After Christmas.

Re: IOT customers
MPouraryan,
I don't think we're quite there yet, but I have to admit I don't know of any specific standard-to-standard translation that doesn't already exist or remains an unsolved problem. Perhaps the most indicative thing of all is that when the last interoperability connection slides into place, there probably won't be any "golden spike" stories in the news about it; the only notice it will get is people asking "didn't that already happen a long time ago?"
Which is to say, whether we're there or not, we've reached a place where we might as well be.

Mike Pouraryan,
Hey, if we ever find the actual right and bestest truth of all truthiness, they'll automate it and sell it in a box at Office Redbox (or more likely make it available as a subscription download), and it will replace all of us. (Including being able to explain why that's the best thing for everyone). All progress depends on most of us being willing to be wrong in the future ...

Re: Don't fence me in....
I hope that your dream will be realized for the sake of us all--as the proliferation of such standards does nothing but cause confusion and dismay amongst all.
Merry Christmas to all!!!

@mporaryan Yes, that is what I was trying to get at.

Re: Don't fence me in....
What the discourse between @JohnBarnes & @Ariella reminded me of was the old admonition from Socrates: ">.All I know is I know nothing..". What is clear is that what we seem to embrace today may not be true tomorrow--as such, transformation means, in effect, to be ready to change--remember "Digital", "..SGI", et. al ?

Re: IOT customers
Interoperability is here--and things are becoming so seamless that it is quite powerful. There is still some further intuitive functionality that should be built in no doubt. But I would humbly suggest that we're already there as we look to the new year and seeing even more of a convergence than ever.

Re: Don't fence me in....
I am assuming as I read your thoughts @afwriter that you're referring to the standards and at least some sort of an implicit agreement on a uniform way to refer to it all. I hope my interpretation is in fact correct.
