DESCRIPTION
Some M2M solutions appear simple: single application on gateway, single application to talk to, simple gateway hardware... but often other important requirements come up: multiple services have to be implemented on the Gateway, or different connectivity options are required, or more than one kind of value proposition has to be met, or the devices are geographically dispersed, or there are multiple consumers of the device data … or even all of those requirements together! The ideal solution is the Eurotech's M2M Integration Platform Everyware Cloud.

Sure, some M2M solutions appear
to be simple:
• Single application / service on
gateway
• Single business application to
talk to
• Simple single gateway hardware

• Multiple business relevant tasks are
addressed and technically consolidated
• Data delivery using a open protocol
effectively decoupling data providers and
data consumers
• IT centric device application development
using Software Frameworks to implement
business logic in smart edge devices / multi-
service gateways
• More efficient bandwidth utilization –
carrier cost optimization
• Of the shelf purpose built devices
designed to meet vertical market value
propositions

M2M Integration Platform
• Everyware Cloud is about Device Data, about M2M: It has been built
from groud-up to provide an infrastructure that is specialized in optimum
device data comunication, collection, analysis and management.
• It is an Integration Platform: Everyware Cloud is designed to act as an
intermediate system between the distributed devices and the
applications making use of the data coming from these devices. Any
communication certainly is two-way in nature allowing also applications
to control and manage the devices when required.
• Everyware Cloud is conceptually like an Operating System for the
Internet of Things enabling the transfer of device data independent of
any other language, platform or OS to and from Enterprise applications
