In this chapter, we present an artificial intelligence (AI) and Internet of Things (IoT) platform. The core functions of this platform are an AI data processing pipeline and an IoT data processing pipeline. In the pipelines, all different types of application-specific data are processed. For applications where an AI is needed, e.g., face/object/scene detection/classification/recognition, an AI engine is presented. For applications where large-scale searching is needed, a search engine is presented. For applications where most data are sensor data, the IoT pipeline is used. These two pipelines are parallel to each other with data communication mechanism. In the data processing core part, they work independently processing different types of data. But on the boundary and interface, they share many supporting functions including the web/mobile app API, user management, and device management. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.
