Press Release
* Nokia expands worldwide IoT network grid (WING) with IoT market entry
services
* Introduces Nokia TestHub for solution validation and testing services to
accelerate commercial launches
11 September 2017
Espoo, Finland - Nokia is expanding its Internet of Things (IoT) services
offering to help mobile operators enter new IoT market segments or expand their
footprint geographically. In addition, the company has complemented its end-to-
end validation and testing services with Nokia TestHub, designed to accelerate
new technology launches, for example in IoT and the cloud.
WING market entry services is a consultative offering for operators that
identifies the best vertical market opportunities in a region, and provides the
related IoT applications and go-to-market model to help operators scale fast to
take advantage of the rapidly growing IoT market. It determines opportunities in
nine IoT market segments: connected car, healthcare, logistics and transport,
smart cities, utilities, agriculture, retail, smart homes and buildings, as well
as connected industry. Once a service is up and running, the Nokia WING managed
service model can provide provisioning, device management, operations, security,
customer care and billing for all connected applications. WING market entry
services' hands-on approach of designing the right proposition and go-to-market
strategy ensures operators can capture new revenue streams in IoT.
Besides market entry services under the WING solution, Nokia is expanding its
capabilities in multivendor testing services with Nokia TestHub to help
operators to test their solutions and devices extensively across domains and
technologies before roll-out. Validation testing of solutions and services both
in the lab and in the field is essential to accelerating not only commercial IoT
launches, but also cloud and eventually 5G launches. Nokia is therefore
introducing this new service, which complements device, network, and application
testing. Automation in testing is critical to keeping pace with accelerating
service launches, and frees up critical resources in a DevOps environment. As
part of the Nokia TestHub, Nokia will provide "Lab as a Service", which gives
customers early access to state-of-the-art infrastructure and expertise from
Nokia for self-testing of devices, network elements, applications and services.
Friedrich Trawoeger, head of Managed Services at Nokia, said: "IoT deployments
are complex, but with our help operators will be able to fast-track their entry
into the market as we provide them not only with a ready-to-go-market and
business model, but also with a pre-integrated IoT infrastructure, complete
service model and go-to-market support services. With our testing services we
can ensure smooth launches for our customers, which are critical to maintaining
great experience for their customers."
