IoT Services Provider

  Do you know the count of connected devices is going to be close to 80 billion within the next decade? Factor in the human population (which is already 7.7 billion) and the growing number of  IoT services provider , and it means that there will be almost 10 CONNECTED DEVICES FOR EVERY PERSON LIVING in the world. These interconnected devices will be smarter than modern-day units and will require access to several resources online. However, this ‘access’ does not come cheap and requires a lot of horsepower in the form of internet bandwidth. The Challenge for IOT Services Provider Feeding future- IoT devices  with the necessary bandwidth is where the real challenge lies. Unlike IoT tech, which is growing at a rapid rate, internet connections are not following suit. At best, it is expected that the bandwidth availability will only double (in the next decade), which is nowhere close to the requirement. Hypothetically, this trend could lead to  IOT solutions and services...

  IoT is a very difficult field for telecom operators with limited resources. To monetize IoT and leverage it for business benefits, small telecom operators require expertise in different verticals. Virtual operators who depend on major CSPs for their SRAN services have to maximize their potential, if they want to stay relevant in the competitive world of today. And this can only be done by fulfilling key IoT-centric requirements like versatile   IoT data connectivity , security and monetization. IoT: Through the Perspective of MVNOs Mobile Virtual Network Operator (MVNO) is a small fish in the big pond. It cannot directly compete with the sharks, but it can create its very own niche and sustain profits. To do that, it has to fulfill the following requirements: Growth in different verticals Hardware, network, payment gateway and billing platform are some of the most fundamental requirements of IoT. Requisitioning all of the resources can be very hard for MVNOs, especially the ...

Internet of Things (IoT) is quickly emerging into a modern-day phenomenon. It has the potential to change the shape of industrial operations and human life. But one thing that forms the bottleneck for the evolution of IoT comes in the form of IoT data connectivity . For any business that wants to take it to the next level, the value of connectivity is second to none. Modern-Day IoT Data Connectivity Requirements As IoT tech evolves, IoT data connectivity has become more diverse than ever before. A dedicated IoT connectivity provider is needed who can usher an IoT-powered business in the right direction. Below are some common IoT requirements that need to be fulfilled: · NFC, RFID and Bluetooth : Ideal for short range connectivity. Mostly used in retail stores and warehouses for searching goods quickly. · Wireless, broadband and mobile data : The fastest speeds are needed for remote surveillance and other IoT use cases where vast amount of data needs to be streamed in milliseconds. · ...

IoT can be quite a challenge for a telecom operator, especially a small one like an MVNO (Mobile Virtual Network Operator). It requires an MVNO to grow in different verticals at the same time, so it can maintain good quality of service to its customers. IoT is a technology, in which, you cannot be half-hearted. From connectivity to   IoT billing , you need to get everything right. This is why you need a comprehensive   internet of things connectivity provider   who is also a master of managing the entire telecom platform. Why IoT is Such a Challenge? Unlike other telecom services like broadband, mobility, voice etc., IoT is a self-sustained technology. The fact that it is based on the communication of IoT sensors and devices makes it a major security challenge. End-to-end encryption is one of the most basic requirements, but it also requires a robust infrastructure for consistent delivery. Some other challenges of IoT are: Diverse IoT data connectivity requirements The fa...

  Picture this:   you decide to go away for a week with your family. You all could use some time away from the stressors of life and home, and so you book a week at a beach house a couple of hours away. You leave your beloved cat, Paws, at home. While you are gone, normal life does not stop. From your smartphone, you can monitor what is happening at your home. You can monitor the temperature of your home via your smart thermostat, and you can make adjustments accordingly. If someone stops by your house, your smart doorbell will notify you and record it. When your neighbor lets himself in to water your plants, you will hear a chime on your phone. When Paws needs to eat, you can feed him via his smart feeder. By the time you get home, everything will be in order and nothing will be a surprise. You can do all of this because your  smartphone and your smart devices  at home are all  connected via an IoT , or an  Internet of Things . IoTs have revolutionized our...

  IoT (Internet of Things) has always remained a topic that has ensued many debates. Although as a technology, it has been prevalent in the industry for quite some time, it is only now we are seeing its true advantages. It is being employed in various industries, primarily in agriculture, healthcare and insurance with positive results. Many   Internet of Things companies   have emerged as true pioneers for the future. But all of them are heavily dependent on a constantly evolving   IoT platform   that supports consistent   IoT development . The Need for a Next-Gen IoT Platform Telecom operators, be it MNO or MVNO, perform the task of bringing services to the market. But there are a lot of telecom B/OSS and billing requirements that need to be managed for deriving constant revenue via subscribers. Also, there is a need for versatile  IoT data  connectivity in various IoT use cases, which has become a pivotal part of an  IoT platform . The vari...

  IoT, or Internet of Things , describes a network of connected devices. If you have ever adjusted your thermostat using your smartphone, recorded a workout on your smartwatch that registered steps in your phone, or connected your fridge to your at-home WiFi network, you have led on an   IoT network . IoT networks are increasingly used by businesses with remote workforces so that they can connect the company’s devices regardless of how far apart their users are.  IoT connectivity providers  facilitate the set-up of IoT networks, and they can be the difference between a system that runs smoothly and one that is rife with error.  Here are ten things to consider while choosing an IoT data connectivity provider: 1. Scalability:  How many devices do you plan to add to your IoT? Similarly, how many IoTs are you planning to support? Do you expect either of those numbers to grow? If you do, then scalability in your  data connectivity provider   is supreme...
