‘Multi-Domestic Service’ simplifies deployment
of global M2M and IoT solutions with end-to-end multinational
connectivity
The Global M2M Association (GMA), a cooperation of six
international tier-one operators (Deutsche Telekom, Orange,
TeliaSonera, Telecom Italia Mobile, Bell Canada and SoftBank) in
the Machine-to-Machine (M2M) market will showcase its revolutionary
new Multi-Domestic Service at Mobile World Congress 2015. Jointly
implemented by GMA operators, the Multi-Domestic Service is
designed to help global enterprises capitalize on the growth of
connected devices. It is one of the most innovative M2M
connectivity management services on the market and enables global
deployment and management of M2M and Internet of Things (IoT)
services predominantly in the automotive and consumer electronics
industries.
Multinational enterprises offering connected products to their
global customer base are faced today with a key challenge: how to
provide a seamless and easy-to-manage localized IoT solution for
end-users. The GMA’s Multi-Domestic Service solves this issue by
delivering a single consolidated M2M management platform provided
by Ericsson and already rolled out with TeliaSonera, Orange and
Bell Canada, leveraging GSMA-compliant embedded SIM cards (eUICC)
and the subscription management platform provided by Gemalto.
One platform, One SIM, One experienceThe Multi-Domestic
Service platform provides real-time connectivity management so that
enterprises can effectively manage, monitor, troubleshoot and
support their connected devices operated globally from a single
source. It also offers powerful administration tools, including
flexible definition of different roles and views, according to
individual needs and business demands. The embedded SIMs and the
subscription management platform allow for easy lifecycle and
connectivity management as they automatically adapt to the status
of the connected products throughout their lifecycle – from
manufacturing, testing, shipping and distribution to the end-user.
Furthermore, the eSIMs will be provisioned with a localized profile
and end-user offers within the GMA footprint, which enables global
enterprises to develop M2M connected devices regardless of location
around the world and to leverage customized end-user offers
wherever they are based.
The customer benefits of GMA’s Multi-Domestic Service are
clear:
- Best in class coverage: It is
jointly implemented by international tier-one operators with an
unparalleled network footprint and leading LTE deployments, who can
deliver an outstanding service based on high speed network
excellence.
- New business models: It enables
new flexible and on-demand business models and M2M applications
(e.g. InCar Wifi) which enterprises can offer to their
customers.
- Simplicity: It brings connected
products to market quicker by offering one consistent solution over
multiple networks and countries, thus eliminating the hurdles of
fragmented markets with different carriers and technologies in
Europe and worldwide.
- Service excellence : It ensures
superior and enhanced service quality (e.g. incident management
over multiple operators)
- Total cost of ownership: It
efficiently provides and manages services across a global
footprint.
- Future-proof: It is compliant
with local regulations and laws, for instance in countries where
permanent roaming is not allowed.
“The Internet of Things presents a number of challenges for
enterprises as they seek to offer a global experience while
providing local flexibility on pricing for connectivity. This is
exactly the type of initiative that we believe will simplify the
process of connecting devices around the world to the benefit of
both enterprises and end-users, ultimately supporting the rapid
growth rates that we anticipate in the IoT market,” said Matt
Hatton, Founder & CEO at Machina Research.
"For many enterprises the race is on to provide interactive
connected services, underpinning this is the need for a simple
solution that provides connectivity globally. The GMA’s
Multi-Domestic Service offers global capability, a flexible
management solution which works in harmony with an enterprise’s
product lifecycle and critically provides a low total cost of
ownership for connectivity," said Hans Dahlberg, Head of
TeliaSonera Global M2M Services and one of the founding members of
the GMA.
