Asavie, a leader in software-defined networking solutions for the Internet of Things and enterprise mobility management, has unveiled iSimplyConnect.com, a new connectivity marketplace enabling mobile network operators (MNO) to offer on-demand configurable connectivity to the developer community and to original equipment manufacturers (OEMs). iSimplyConnect enables MNOs to address the requirements of the developer and maker community, by offering single-digit proof-of-concept IoT connections that rapidly scale into production networks on demand.
Until the availability of iSimplyConnect, building solutions that could harness cellular connectivity has been a complex challenge for developers and makers that previously resorted to Wi-Fi or other short-range connectivity options, which inhibited the rollout of secure, scalable, production-ready IoT solutions. iSimplyConnect.com provides access to global cellular connectivity via a secure private IP network, enabling the immediate deployment and elastic scaling of IoT projects. The on-demand private network means users can quickly carry out trials, conduct proof-of-concept tests and run deployments—all without requiring any new hardware.
“Our new connectivity marketplace, iSimplyConnect.com, will help operators unlock the potential of the maker and OEM communities,” says Ralph Shaw, Asavie’s CEO. “We enable MNOs to take the guesswork out of connectivity for these communities by providing an interface for secure and private connectivity, immediate deployment and unlimited scaling of IoT projects globally.”
iSimplyConnect will be available starting on Dec. 15, 2016. Developers and makers can register their interest at www.isimplyconnect.com.
