An effective model for Selection of the best IoT platform: A critical review of challenges and solutions

The process of making an informed decision on which Internet of Things (IoT) platform to choose is an extremely important one in the modern world. The choice procedure is made more difficult as a result of (a) the vast number of IoT platforms that are offered on the market for IoT applications and (b) the wide diversity of functions and solutions that are provided by these platforms. In this article, the multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) methodologies for selecting the specific Internet of Things platform are taken into consideration. The TOPSIS method is used in this paper to select the best IoT platform. TOPSIS method is a common MCDM method. TOPSIS method used the idea of the best and cost criteria to compute the distance from it. During the IoT platform choice procedures, relevant aspects, such as the stability, consistency, protection, and privacy of IoT platforms, are regarded to be the most significant ones for making decisions.
