The arrival of the new SGP.32 ESIM Standardas well as new regulations and the developing industry dynamics will change the market for IoT connectivity on the based IoT, including the emergence of a new role, ESIM Orchestrator
Companies that rely on globally networked IoT devices are a major change in the way these assets have to be managed, and according to a new report by the industry research company Transforma Insights from new technical standards and further developing market complexities are exposed.
The latest analysis, which is listed in a position paper “Essim Orchestration: Driving of the next wave of IoT connectivity”, which is produced in cooperation with the global IoT connectivity specialists Eseye, shows that upcoming technologies such as the SGP.32 standard for ESIMs associated with ESIMs and new strategies Can dedicate specialties and new specialties. Keeping control and efficiency.
The report shows that the era of simple, unrestricted global connectivity for business equipment is further developed and represents new complexity for companies. The most important challenges and developments that drive this transformation are:
- The upcoming commercial introduction of the new SGP.32 standard for the remote -SIM promotion
- Mobile operators (MNOS) are becoming increasingly cautious about the granting of network access
- A complex and intensified network of international regulations regarding data sovereignty, cyber security and permanent roaming restrictions in many countries
“Companies navigate and manage a time with significant changes in relation to the provision of global device connectivity.” Explains Matt Hatton, founding partner at Transforma Insights. “The new SGP.32 standard offers a powerful instrument for the provision of Remote -SIM. In cooperation with a more sophisticated regulatory and MNO landscape, our analysis indicates a fundamental shift that companies are more strategy.
This new ‘Essim Orchestrator‘Function would specialize in the management of the complexity of this new environment. According to the paper, the most important responsibilities and characteristics of such a role would include:
1. ESIM profile management: Effective management of ESIM profiles Downloads and swaps according to robust guidelines -Frameworks, including service activations and cancellations.
2. Profile life cycle management: Optimization of the use of ESIM profiles to compensate for the availability of networks, compliance with regulatory compliance and the commercial factors, including the management of the end of life.
3. Awareness of network skills: Understanding the diverse skills and technologies (e.g. NB-IoT, 5G SA) of various MNO networks to ensure an adequate profile selection.
4. Device awareness: Consideration of the skills and certification requirements of IoT devices themselves, including service restrictions, in the management of ESIM profiles.
5. Simplification of the billing: As a single billing point for companies, the administration of the usage test and reconciliation is about several mnos.
6. Customer care: Provision of a uniform global customer support as a single contact point for commercial inquiries, error solution and escalations.
7. Trustworthy relationships with Mnos: Cultivate strong, trustworthy partnerships with MNOs, which are increasingly picky in granting the access of ESIM profiles.
8. Compliance with the ESIM management obligations: Ensure compliance with specific country regulations in relation to ESIM localization and data sovereignty.
9. Trade plans/tariff management: Manage and optimization due to the various commercial plans, tariffs and services of MNO localization partners.
10. Comprehensive managed service: Provision of these functions in the context of a holistic managed service and simplifies the complexity of the Remote -SIM provision for companies.
The paper indicates that this shift is transferred to the industry via the basic resale in the direction of more demanding, managed service models. For companies, this means that the simple acquisition of Sims will no longer be sufficient. A more holistic approach to managing the life cycle, conformity and diverse connectivity options of your devices is required.
“The way in which companies manage their networked devices worldwide changes undoubtedly”, “ Adds Ian Marsden, co -founder and CTO in Eseye. “Proactive companies will look beyond the immediate technical changes, e.g.
Transforma Insights comes to the conclusion that the current development of technology and market practices with increasing growth of globally associated devices requires significant assessment of strategies for connectivity management for all affected companies.
