Dynamic queries and data serialization. Imagine sending just a text query (in SQL) around to a sensor network. It would be a fair amount of work to reproduce that on your own but seems like it can open up some nice features for distributed IoT

It still seems pretty inefficient. With 4KB of RAM I'd just store my data in an array of structs and send it in raw binary to the central server. The SQL also leaves potential for running unwanted SQL. I'm reminded of a commercial home automation platform that had agonizingly slow response times because the LCD controllers were sending raw, unauthenticated Python code to the 70MHz central controller.
