Ericsson's secure IoT connectivity brings efficiency to winemakers
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
* Ericsson partners with MyOmega System Technologies, Intel and Telenor
Connexion to build world's first end-to-end site implementation of secure
Internet of Things (IoT) connectivity service for winemakers
* Deployment of Ericsson Device Connection Platform (DCP), together with IoT
security solution, provides SIM-based device authentication and end-to-end
secure encrypted connectivity that support more effective wine production
* Solution leads to increased revenue opportunities, lower costs and reduced
environmental impact for winemakers; has potential to scale for the entire
wine industry and other industries globally
Ericsson (NASDAQ: ERIC) today announces a collaboration with Intel, Telenor
Connexion and MyOmega System Technologies to build a secure Internet of Things
(IoT) connectivity service that supports more effective wine production.
The service will enable winemakers to collect data on air and soil humidity and
temperature, as well as solar intensity, using IoT sensors and Intel-based IoT
gateways connected to a cloud service. The data can be used to perform
predictive analysis and to support resource management and real-time remote
monitoring, leading to higher quality production, lower costs and reduced
environmental impact for winemakers.
The size of the wine industry export globally is EUR 26 billion according to a
market research International organization of Vine and Wine (OIV), which
indicates the potential to scale these types of solutions.
TracoVino services and solutions will be offered by MyOmega towards the
winemakers. Telenor Connexion includes Ericsson's secure IoT service in its
offering. This service is based on the Ericsson Device Connection Platform (DCP)
integrated with the Authentication Federation Gateway. Built on the 3GPP
standard Generic Bootstrapping Architecture for LTE, the implementation features
the world's first end-to-end security and authentication capabilities for
transferring sensor data to the cloud for processing and analysis.
Ericsson DCP is a cloud-based IoT/machine-to-machine (M2M) platform that handles
connectivity management, subscription management and OSS/BSS, enabling
automation of business processes between operators and enterprises.
Intel will supply processors and LTE modems for the IoT gateways and MyOmega
System Technologies, headquartered in Nuremberg, Germany, will provide sensor
and gateway hardware and software.
"The Internet of Things is poised to change our lives by connecting isolated
objects to gain valuable information and improved efficiencies," Rose Schooler,
vice president of IoT Strategy at Intel. "Together, Ericsson, Intel, MyOmega
and Telenor Connexion are demonstrating with TracoVino an end-to-end solution
connecting nature to the Cloud."
Mats Lundquist, CEO, Telenor Connexion, Telenor Connexion, says: "By selecting
DCP, Telenor Connexion can feel secure while delivering global connectivity that
supports business critical applications. Telenor Connexion and Ericsson have a
long tradition of working together to set the standards for IoT. Thanks to
Ericsson's long experience in the field, we know that the solution can evolve
and if necessary support additional revenue models and data-transfer solutions
in the future. In addition, having one single global provider of connectivity
enables the solution to be standardized no matter where it will be sold or used.
(i.e. enables easy global expansion)"
Anders Olin, Vice President, Product Area Network Functions, Business Unit Cloud
& IP, Ericsson says: "By delivering standardized, secure end-to-end connectivity
from IoT sensors to the cloud, this partnership represents a strong proof point
for Ericsson's IoT leadership. We see great potential for scaling the service to
winemakers globally and to additional industrial applications in the networked
society, such as real estate management."
Bernd Möller, CEO, MyOmega System Technologies says: "Quality tools for the
winemakers that are reducing their risks and improving the yield is our key
offering. We are building with the TracoVino services and solution a first
scalable IoT offering that combines sensors, IoT gateways and a secure and
powerful communication solution. Thanks to Telenor's DCP and the Ericsson
network technology we can scale towards the entire wine market. We base our
gateways on technology provided through Intel."
Four winemakers in the Mosel Valley, Germany are participating in the field
trial already. The service and measurement results will be showcased at
Broadband World Forum 2015, to be held October 20 to October 22, 2015 in London,
UK.
