It is this very property that can sometimes boom into an unending data pile later on. Imagine a large warehouse of apparel, it has every size of clothing for men, women, and children.

When monitoring sensor data, such as data from a weather station, a home security system, or a home automation assistant, it’s useful to have an alerting system in place, as well. By setting up alerts for sensor data, you can automatically receive notifications when any significant event occurs — whether that’s someone arriving at your front door or a thunderstorm rolling in.
