Google Cloud Leverages Sierra Wireless’
device-to-cloud IoT expertise to help more customers realize the
value of connected devices
Sierra Wireless (NASDAQ:SWIR) (TSX:SW), a leading provider of
fully integrated device-to-cloud solutions for the Internet of
Things (IoT), today announced support for Google Cloud IoT Core, a
fully managed service that allows users to easily and securely
connect and manage devices at global scale.
Cloud IoT Core, together with other Google Cloud services, such
as Pub/Sub, Dataflow, Bigtable, BigQuery, and Data Studio, provide
a complete solution for collecting, processing, analyzing, and
visualizing IoT data in real time to support improved operational
efficiency.
Sierra Wireless’ device-to-cloud solution, which includes
embedded wireless modules, gateways, and cloud and connectivity
services, links businesses to their operational data. The solution
provides intelligence at the edge, secured device provisioning and
managed services, such as device monitoring and software updates.
Sierra Wireless has been working with Google since 2015 to enable
Pub/Sub integration of its AirVantage® IoT Platform with Google
Cloud services. Now, with support for Google Cloud IoT Core, Sierra
Wireless customers have more options to access the entire Google
ecosystem out of the box.
Key features of the new Cloud IoT Core solution:
- End-to-end security - Enable end-to-end
security using certificate-based authentication and TLS; devices
running Android Things or ones supporting the Cloud IoT Core
security requirements can deliver full stack security.
- Out-of-box data Insights - Use
downstream analytic systems by integrating with Google Big Data
Analytics and ML services.
- Serverless infrastructure: Scale
instantly without limits using horizontal scaling on Google’s
serverless platform.
- Role-level data control - Apply IAM
roles to devices to control access to devices and data.
- Automatic device deployment - Use REST
APIs to automatically manage the registration, deployment and
operation of devices at scale.
“Real-time, reliable and actionable processing of information is
a complex but critical element of IoT,” said Philippe Guillemette,
CTO, Sierra Wireless. “Sierra Wireless’ experience in helping
customers deploy more than one hundred million cloud-connected edge
devices coupled with Google’s Cloud IoT Core dramatically reduces
this complexity for businesses of any size.”
“Cloud IoT Core was designed to simplify digital transformation
by helping customers to leverage Google Cloud’s data analytics and
machine learning capabilities and act on insights, in real time,
from operational data that was previously inaccessible,” said Adam
Massey, Director, Strategic Technology Partners at Google Cloud.
“By working with industry leaders like Sierra Wireless, we are
expanding the surface of innovation to help more customers realize
the value of connected devices for their businesses.”
