NetComm Wireless’ (ASX: NTC) M2M and IoT products have been certified as compliant with the ThingWorx IoT platform and the company has become a member of the ThingWorx Ready partner program.
ThingWorx, a subsidiary of PTC, claims to provide “the first platform designed to efficiently build and run the applications of today’s connected world” with a platform that “combines the key functionality of Web 2.0, search and social collaboration, and applies it to the world of ‘things’, including connected products, machines, sensors, and industrial equipment.”
ThingWorx Ready partners can pre-integrate their products with the ThingWorx platform, greatly simplifying the creation and deployment of IoT solutions, according to ThingWorx.
NetComm Wireless CEO, David Stewart said the ThingWorx certification would give customers a greater range of deployment options for NetComm Wireless products. “We are always growing our M2M and remote management platform partnerships … to ensure that our operator, enterprise and business customers can achieve their deployment objectives on their own terms,” he said.
ThingWorx says businesses use the ThingWorx platform “to rapidly deliver innovative applications and connected solutions across markets ranging from manufacturing, energy, and food, to Machine-to-Machine (M2M) remote monitoring and service, as well as in emerging Internet of Things applications, including smart cities, smart grid, agriculture, and transportation.”
ThingWorx opened an office in Australia in mid 2015, headed by Mark Morgan.
