[SIPForum-discussion] Is SIP important to IoT?

[Thomas Lentz]

Hi Rodrigo,
I recently had two students working on the topic SIP based IoT palttform.
In essence: the SIP protocol is not very well suited to play a role in 
device connectivity, there are "better" protocols in regards to 
complexity.
But as a protocol to connect IoT Gateways it is very well suited, 
especially when you are using a SIP platform as middleware to aggregate 
data from billions of gateways. Doing so you are also able to use 
Application Servers (see 3GPP's IMS spec) to process the IoT data.

Greetings
 Thomas

My estimation is that the answer is "no".  SIP is very useful when
humans are communicating to humans using audio, video, and other media
streams.  But IoT environments tend to involve transmitting much smaller
amounts of data that is much more carefully encoded, between automated
devices.

Hi.

I'm starting to study about Internet of Things and how SIP relates to it. 
So, I have some beginner questions:

1 - How much does SIP matter to IoT? That is, can I say that SIP is very 
important to IoT because many communications on this "new" Internet will 
use such protocol?

2 - Could someone here point some project for IoT that depends on SIP?

3 - If SIP is important to IoT, what is the main use of such protocol in 
ioT in general?

Any hint will be very helpful!

Best regards.
