• Also compliant with ETSI TC M2M R1 & R2 standard

• Facilitates development of M2M/IoT and emerging Internet of Things (IoT) applications across multiple verticals

• Fast time to market

• Reduced development costs

• Common API available for most development environments

• Configurable and easy to use SDK

• Standards compliant test and development tools:

• Wireshark Dissectors to monitor the M2M/IoT standard primitives/protocols at runtime

• Resource Tree Viewer to monitor the service layer operations at runtime

Advances in wireless communications, storage capacity, embedded processing power, and IT technologies have led to inexpensive devices, sensors, and actuators with increased computing power and low power consumption. These advances provide a huge opportunity for growth in M2M/IoT applications. M2M/IoT technologies will benefit a broad range of market segments including smart grid, telematics, eHealth/mHealth, vehicular networking and systems, industrial control, home automation, and environmental monitoring, to name a few.

Global standards are defining service layer solutions to accelerate the development and reuse of M2M/IoT data and applications. InterDigital’s Standardized Service Delivery Platform (SDP) provides a middleware solution with a set of common Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) for scalable and horizontal M2M/IoT services that enables:

• Rapid and efficient application development

• M2M/IoT service providers to enable different applications and manage the whole M2M/IoT eco-system with greatly reduced CAPEX and OPEX

• Device vendors to expand and improve their products with value-added features and interoperability with different devices

Standards-Based Horizontal M2M/IoT Service Layer

InterDigital’s M2M/IoT Service Platform: Standards-Aligned, Scalable, Interoperable

InterDigital’s Standardized Service Delivery Platform (SDP) is available in a oneM2M compliant solution and/or an ETSI TC M2M compliant solution. Both solutions consist of Cloud, Gateway, and Device service nodes and support all the defined interfaces of the standard. Each solution also provides a REST (REpresentational State Transfer) based API that facilitates communication between the service nodes and applications.

InterDigital’s M2M/IoT Service Platform Open Message Bus (OMB) Architecture

The InterDigital IoT Service Platform is built upon the Open Message Bus (OMB) architecture. The OMB provides a flexible and scalable architecture that enables different types of services to interconnect and interoperate with one another in a seamless and generic manner. In this way, oneM2M, ETSI M2M, and third party/advanced services can interface to one another over the OMB. The architecture can be scaled based on the desired deployment so that it can support cloud based services all the way down to device based services. The OMB backbone supports a set of native services which include an OMB Database Service, an OMB Service Directory, and an OMB Administration Console. These native services provide services to those entities connecting to the OMB. All services interface to the OMB via OMB clients which provide a layer of abstraction between the services and the underlying transport.

The InterDigital IoT SDP platform brings together a standards compliant platform with a number of advanced and value added features that provide enhanced capabilities for IoT applications.
