M2M Innovation World Congress in Marseille, France (September 22-24), Eurotech is showcasing its integrated portfolio of hardware platforms and software services for the deployment of complete M2M applications.

Amaro, (UD) - 12 September 2014 - Eurotech, a leading supplier of embedded technologies, products and systems, is attending M2M Innovation World Congress in Marseille, France, from 22 to 24 September. Eurotech is a Platinum Sponsor of the conference and exhibition that will explore new ways to translate Machine-to-Machine (M2M) technologies into vertical business applications.

The M2M Innovation World Congress agenda includes several speeches by Eurotech representatives. In the "Energy & Utilities" session, Tim Taberner, Group M2M Evangelist, will talk about smart and scalable M2M/IoT solutions for the energy market and will be also a speaker in the Plenary Opening Panel "From M2M to IoT: Taxonomy of a market in Flux", together with representatives from Wind River, Sigfox, Bosch Software Innovations and PTC/ThingWorx. Andrea Ceiner, Group Product Marketing Manager M2M/IoT, is presenting the "Smart Cities" session (about TCO and time-to-market reduction) and the "Retail & Commerce" session (about the introduction of M2M/IoT in the vending business).

Eurotech's presence in Marseille will revolve around Everyware Device Cloud (EDC), a fully integrated solution that provides a wide portfolio of hardware platforms and software services for the deployment of complete M2M applications. Eurotech's end-to-end EDC solution provides all the necessary components to design, implement and manage Machine-to-Machine infrastructures or Device-to-Enterprise applications.

"With Everyware Device Cloud, Eurotech can encapsulate all the complexities of M2M, making them transparent to programmers, and consequently removing access barriers in terms of infrastructure costs and specialized skills required to build embedded and IoT applications," Mr. Ceiner said. "Customers can use the platform as a service (PAAS) and pay exactly for what they use. ISVs and system integrators can leverage a community of nine million Java programmers, the world's largest programmer community. With our capacity to bring embedded technology very close to enterprise solutions, today virtually all of these nine million programmers can develop embedded and IoT applications."

Eurotech's Everyware Device Cloud (EDC) offer includes Everyware Software Framework (ESF) and Everyware Cloud (EC).

Everyware Software Framework (ESF) is a IoT-centric programming environment. ESF is designed to streamline the development and remote management of applications on embedded devices, leveraging technology such as Java and OSGi. The virtualization of physical interfaces, the availability of field data acquisition libraries, a standard framework for scalable programming and the implementation of a communication system towards the back-end are just a few key features of ESF. Deep experiences in the management of distributed systems and M2M applications have been consolidated by Eurotech into ESF, so that customers can have all the benefits of Eurotech's expertise without starting at the beginning themselves.

Everyware Cloud (EC) is an M2M integration platform that simplifies the development of applications using data from the field and remote control of field devices. EC encapsulates the complexity of a full end-to-end M2M communication into a simple JSON REST API. EC features include device management, massive device provisioning, data collection, historical database, real-time analysis and access. EC is based on the latest cloud computing technology, offering scalability and high service levels. Everyware Cloud integrates with Everyware Software Framework to simplify the remote management of smart devices and of multi-service M2M gateways, reducing the Total Cost of Ownership related to the maintenance of devices in the field.
