Vertical vis-à-vis Horizontal Approach

Perceived Issues with Vertical Approach

• Multiple service gateway devices, one for each application

• Each application provides its own means for device and application management, L1 support, communication, CPE device integration

• No/limited openness towards 3rd party applications • Absence of an SDK

• No sensor reuse amongst different applications

• This heterogeneous approach does not fit with requirements of major fixed/mobile carriers

Openness of the Solutions

• As the Alcatel-Lucent/ProSyst solution is based upon standardized

protocols, the different building blocks of the solution can interwork

with the building blocks of other vendors • Any ACS (TR-069 device manager) can manage the OSGi enabled RGAM

• ProSyst has the mPower Remote Manager (ACS) which fulfils the following use

cases:

• Platform, Application & Service Lifecycle Management

• Firmware & File Update

• Remote Configuration & Software Provisioning

• Remote Diagnostics & Troubleshooting (life status monitoring, logging, etc.)

• Remote Security Administration

• Alcatel-Lucent’s ACS (HDM product) is capable of managing any TR-069 managed

gateway and/or execution environment (currently more than 60 million devices are

managed from more than 80 CPE vendors.

Highlights: Short-time to market for:

•Device Integration in OSGi

•E-Health bundle

Zero-touch configuration

& Activation of SG and Apps.

Conclusions

• All aspects of the M2M gateway (device, apps, sensors) can be

remotely managed through open standardized protocols (TR-069)

reducing substantially the OPEX of the operator (carriers, utilities)

• Short time-to-market of new applications thanks to OSGi

middleware technology, SDK, sensor abstraction framework and

communication abstraction framework

• Alcatel-Lucent and ProSyst provide an open and managed M2M

gateway solution enabling ‘simultaneously’ different kind of

application (Energy, E-Health, Automotive, Security, Telematics,

etc.) for any kind of environment (Home, Enterprise/building, Car,

etc.)
