Accelerating global IoT deployment

1 October 2019 Infrastructure

Eseye has announced a strategic partnership with Gemalto to deliver the world’s first family of pre-integrated modules that will simplify IoT device design, cloud connectivity and accelerate time to market.

The two companies are creating a suite of plug-and-play IoT modules and terminals that combine Eseye’s AnyNet Secure SIM and SIM application technology with Gemalto’s eSIM and IoT module capabilities, embedded firmware, and security. This will ensure a consistent global ‘out of the box’ experience and behaviour for IoT devices that simplifies and automates secure connectivity into hyperscale cloud provider Amazon Web Services (AWS).

The plug-and-play modules will deliver predictable and reliable global connectivity, providing 100% device uptime, reduce device development timescales by more than 50%, and provide a single pane of glass management for an entire global estate. The modules will enable the global deployment of a single IoT product, with zero-touch connectivity into AWS IoT Core. The integration with AWS will simplify billing and ensure device integrity by providing security certificates over the air and centralised policy management.

Anand Gandhi, vice president of worldwide channels and alliances at Eseye, comments: “By combining our expertise we’ll be able to dramatically reduce global IoT device development timescales, assure global connectivity and security out of the box while increasing device uptime.”

Andreas Haegele, vice president of IoT at Gemalto, comments: “The Gemalto-Eseye solution simplifies the complex IoT value chain, works globally, allows an out-of-the-box secure AWS integration and a single-source billing system. The Gemalto partnership with Eseye provides IoT developers with expertise that paves the way for massive innovation. The joint platform provides a watershed opportunity to greatly expand the IoT global footprint and accelerate industry growth.”
