The internet of things has the potential scale to fill a person's need of information looking from the outside, in retrospect the look from the inside can be different. It can be observed in a sequence of detailed threads arranged in a complex array of association.

Same goes for any advancement in technology when inquiries regarding shape, ownership and regulation begin to emerge. The internet is being rebuilt on a higher scale.

Technological standards became an obstacle when it reached a point of developing the internet of things. As it began to grow in connecting things it becomes a potential risk when each "thing" is not allowed to interact with one another.

Networking standards simply start from the competitiveness and incompatibility to choose from the likes of ZigBee, Z-Wave, EnOcean, Bluetooth LE or SigFox. These things are already approaching in unity.

Taking a look at the inside world shows  ZigBee 3.0 closely reaching to Google's Thread  and is slowly being challenged by Bluetooth association which is about to launch the Bluetooth mesh standard.

While the Wi-Fi Alliance is creating the IEEE 802.11 ah called the Hallow. All these network standards are calculated to focus on lower power requirements and good range to fit the internet of things.

Looking into the internet of things from the outside, as the Next Generation Mobile Networks (NGMN) is being established by working GSMA.  It is currently controlling the mobile standards, and plays a significant part of the 5G phenomena. It includes a greater data range, lower latency and good coverage. It is essential to manage multiple connections individually and could be the next global competitive challenge for Low Power Wireless Area Networks including SigFox, LoRa.
