Starhome Mach & Stream Technologies make available best-of-breed IoT connectivity management platform

IoT Connectivity Lifecycle Management Provides MNOs With a New Competitive Edge

Zurich, February 20th, 2017 - Starhome Mach, a global leader in mobile inter-carrier roaming, anti-fraud and IoT connectivity services, and Stream Technologies, a world leader in IoT connectivity enablement, are to assist Mobile Network Operators (MNO's) launch and accelerate their IoT services. The companies will provide MNO's with complete visibility and control of all IoT device connections, significantly strengthening their local and global competitive advantage.

Starhome Mach, already services 300 mobile network operators with global network, roaming and clearing needs, and Stream, with over 700 IoT-related enterprise clients, have combined their technologies and expertise to deliver a ground breaking IoT connectivity lifecycle management solution for MNO’s.

The innovative solution delivers the most robust, easy-to-deploy and cost effective solution to help MNOs differentiate in an increasingly crowded IoT connectivity space. It combines Stream's API based connectivity enablement, and monitoring & control technologies, with Starhome Mach's core network based connectivity insight and smart steering technologies, as well as Starhome Mach’s complete IoT clearing services.

"Starhome Mach's years of experience helping MNOs around the world manage and strengthen their core networks make them a powerful technology partner," said Nigel Chadwick, CEO of Stream . "Together, we’re providing MNOs and enterprises a complete set of tools necessary to rapidly expand their IoT capabilities.

Starhome Mach's new IoT Connectivity Lifecycle Management, powered by IoT-X, is immediately available to all MNOs worldwide. The real-time solution delivers the lowest TCO and the highest levels of service continuity, bringing a complete visibility and control layer to the MNOs and their enterprise customers. Companies using the solution will be able to manage and monitor millions of SIMs and IoT devices, gaining complete self-care, from initial mass provisioning to long-term administration, such as remote management, SIM resets, and software upgrades.

"Stream has been in the IoT business for more than 17 years, so they understand the needs of the enterprises, and possess deep expertise in IoT connectivity management” said Itai Margalit, CEO of Starhome Mach . “Meanwhile, we know exactly what MNOs need, so together, we’re delivering the best possible IoT connectivity management technology and solution available."

Starhome Mach will be available to demonstrate and discuss the solution at MWC 2017, Hall 7, Stand 7F51.
