Why Scalability for IoT is Critical to Success

March 1, 2016

IoT consists of distributed services based on sensing, sharing, and controlling through new nodes • The nodes are the big hardware opportunity – Low cost – Low energy – Unique form factors – Lots of new sensors – Always alert • Always alert node may be independent device or subsystem in SoC.

In 2013 smartphones and tablets users downloaded more than 100Bn Apps for a total bill of almost $60 Billion. By 2020, the number of connected objects will reach or exceed 50Bn units. In our view, personal devices will be at the center of the IoT revolution, representing the easiest way to experience the world and the preferential development platform. Therefore, we believe that a large part of future App will be connected Apps, requiring access to the physical objects and a reference platform. Nowadays, existing objects are often digitally mute or internally speak all sorts of languages. Current solutions force developers to learn detailed proprietary protocols to manage only one objects at a time. For this reason, there is no simple way to create applications spanning several heterogeneous objects, whether new or existing ones, and therefore there are no basis for the creation of a solid IoT community.

Unlock the Power of Private 5G: Top Applications and Key Business Outcomes

whitePaper | February 23, 2023

The private 5G market is at an early stage of development, but activity in the market is increasing. 5G accounted for over 50% of all publicly disclosed private network announcements at the end of 2022, according to Analysys Mason’s Private LTE/5G networks tracker.1 5G’s share is lower when non-public announcements are included, but it is expected that most private networks will eventually use 5G.

Global Industry Standards for Industrial IoT

whitePaper | June 2, 2021

The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) is a rapidly expanding world of connected objects. As IIoT systems proliferate, large amounts of data are consumed by machine learning algorithms and shared between partners, customers and others. IIoT is a technology environment in which integration and interoperability are critical capabilities and the complexity of this environment makes this difficult to achieve. Standards play a critical role in IIoT for five main reasons. First, users and vendors cannot engineer a custom interface every time components or systems need to interact. Standards can make this explosion of interfaces manageable; they are the lingua franca for interoperability. For suppliers, this eliminates needless costs related to common capabilities instead encouraging a focus on innovations that add value.

Using eSIM and iSIM will save money for IoT deployments

whitePaper | June 22, 2022

Transforma Insights analysis points to an 8-13% saving to be made on lifetime connectivity spend by enterprises if they choose eSIM and iSIM options rather than removable plastic SIM cards for their IoT deployments. Embedded SIM (eSIM), and to a lesser extent its coming successor integrated SIM (iSIM), have established themselves as part of the range of capabilities that need to be carefully considered by an organisation when planning a cellular-based IoT solution. Alongside the physical components of eSIM and iSIM.
