IoP — The Internet of Potatoes
Continuing to push analogies to breaking point…This time with fries!
You might have seen a post recently with describing an application as front end, back end and API. Something along these lines:
Nice. Elegant. Simple.
It provides a convenient way to talk about technology that everyone can relate to….but is it too simplistic? There’s lots more to tech that isn’t covered here, what would it take to push the analogy to its limits?
In pursuit of my pointless quest to link technology to fast food, (see Pizza as a Service 2), I thought I’d give it a go…Sorry, that’s just the way I yam.
It was a welcome thought experiment whilst potty training a toddler and that will also serve as my excuse when the inevitable flaws are pointed out. Be sure to keep your eyes peeled!
I give you — The Internet of Potatoes v1.0
🍟 Raw Data — All your information…often described as the new oil, but in this case, new potatoes.
