Qualcomm, AT&T, and Telit announce support for Java on M2M

 

Support for Java in the M2M space is growing rapidly.

Cinterion and Qualcomm have already announced their support for Java using the Oracle Java ME Embedded 3.2 platform.

Two days ago, Qualcomm and AT&T announced their “Internet of Everything” development platform, supporting Oracle Java ME Embedded 3.2.

Yesterday, Telit introduced two Qualcomm-based modules for global M2M markets, with support planned for Oracle Java ME Embedded 3.2 as well.

IDC and Becham Research: New analyst reports and webcast

Embedded Java is getting a lot of attention in the analyst community these days. Check out these new analyst reports and a webcast by IDC as well as Beecham Research.

IDC published a White Paper titled “Ghost in the Machine: Java for Embedded Development”, and an accompanying webcast recording.

Highlights of the White Paper:

• The embedded systems industry is projected to continue to expand rapidly, reaching $2.1 trillion in 2015
• The market for intelligent systems, where Java’s rich set of services are most needed, is projected to grow to 78% of all embedded systems in 2015 
• Java is widely used in embedded systems and is expected to continue to gain traction in areas where devices present an application platform for developers

The free IDC webcast and White Paper can be accessed here.

Beecham Research published a report titled “Designing an M2M Platform for the Connected World”.

Highlights of the report:

• The total revenue for M2M Services is projected to double, from almost $15 billion in 2012 to over $30 billion in 2016
• The primary driver for M2M solutions is now enabling new services
• Important trends that are developing are: Enterprise integration – more data and using the data more strategically, new markets in the Internet of Things (IoT), processing large amounts of data in real time (complex event processing)
• Using the same software development environment for all parts of an M2M solution is a major advantage if the software can be optimized for each part of the solution

Small, smart, connected: Cinterion Java-powered Wireless Modules

You need a small, wireless compute platform to embed into your smart devices? Powered by Java – making it secure, robust, and easy to program?

Cinterion, based in Germany, has been shipping Java-powered wireless modules since 2003 into key M2M (machine-to-machine) markets such as mHealth, even winning a Duke’s Choice Award in 2010 for its innovative technologies.

These modules are amazing little compute platforms, complete with a CLDC/IMP Java runtime, IP-based cellular data connectivity, various I/O, and even GPS and other options. Software development is easy – use Eclipse or NetBeans, apply your existing Java skills, and you’ll be developing applications in no time.

In the latest Cinterion-Oracle customer success story, the Philips Respironics System One sleep therapy platform uses the Cinterion TC65i Java module and the GSM/GPRS network to allow doctors to remotely analyze patients breathing data and make changes to the air pressure administered by the device.
