Triggering events can signal an IoT opportunity. Which two options are examples of triggering events that are caused by an upgrade? (Choose 2)

Question

Options

• AA restaurant wishes to hire new staff.
• BA driller purchases new equipment.
• CA city wants to rename its parks.
• DA company commits to increasing operational capacity.

• A
  3% (1)
• B
  92% (35)
• C
  5% (2)

Explanation

Purchasing new equipment (B) and committing to increased operational capacity (D) are both upgrade-driven events - they represent deliberate investments in growth or improvement that naturally create an IoT opportunity. When a driller buys new equipment, that hardware can be IoT-enabled from the start. When a company scales up operations, managing the increased workload efficiently often requires IoT monitoring, automation, and analytics.

A (hiring staff) is wrong because staffing is a human resources decision, not a technology or infrastructure upgrade - it doesn't inherently open a door for IoT deployment. C (renaming parks) is purely administrative with no technology or capacity change involved, so no IoT trigger exists.

Memory tip: Associate "upgrade" with either things (new equipment → B) or scale (bigger operations → D). If the change involves buying something new or doing more of something, it's a candidate upgrade-triggered IoT event. If it's just paperwork or personnel, it's not.
