Abstract
Within the context of the Internet-of-Things (IoT), the number of interconnected devices is increasing dramatically and allowing for access to physical data that was previously unimaginable. Physical data is rapidly changing which makes it important to keep networking connections active. Any drop in communication can lead to the loss of sensitive data. A redundant network connection is an attempt to utilize common networking solutions in order to decrease the likelihood of network downtime. It does this by adding a new level of abstraction to networking, allowing data to be sent over multiple networking solutions as if it were a single network, as well as an intelligent decision engine to determine the most optimized and reliable connection to use dynamically.
