After the launch of M2M connectivity platform, Simplify, Telekom Austria Group has extended its M2M portfolio with a launch of an application. The M2M application is a platform for remote monitoring, automation and control for metering devices, industrial plants and machines in the field.

The partnership between the Unlock M2M and the Austrian M2M provider, Microtronics Engineering, has come up with a modular solution concept. The device comes with an integrated SIM ship to establish a secure mobile connection to the central middleware and transfer data anywhere in the world in real-time.

The data is processed by an intelligent application to make it accessible to other users through frontend.

The application platform has been designed to perform remote data monitoring operations with ease and effectiveness. It will facilitate control of devices in industries like energy, plant construction and water management. These industries require such processes to be conducted on daily basis.

"M2M solutions for the optimisation of products and processes are being seen as offering competitive advantage by more and more companies", said Bernd Liebscher, CEO of Telekom Austria's M2M unit.

With this, customers get a flexible and cost effective hosted system. And the best part is that it does not involve large development efforts or investment risks.
