M2M Application Development Platforms

The Constellation approach is the baseline framework that Strategy Analytics uses to evaluate M2M solutions across the value chain and to develop the SA scorecard of vendor solutions. The Strategy Analytics Constellation, provides readers the ability to simultaneously compare and contrast vendors, both from a supply side and a demand side. The framework allows both technology vendors and end-users to quickly assess who are the Shining Stars, the Rising Stars, as well as the Supernova and Neutron Stars. This report has been designed to address those pure-play companies for whom M2M application development is core to their business and who can enable and deliver turnkey or custom end-to-end M2M applications to customers. Other vendors that play a role in application development for M2M are often module suppliers that have built their own cloud platforms such as Novatel, carriers that have opened APIs for use of M2M applications on their connectivity platforms, and management consultancy, system integration, IT services and solutions companies that are intimately familiar with the business of managing and deploying complex IT services. An example here would be CGI (Logica) with its M2M Business Enablement Platform.
