AVSystem’s testing program for AT&T shows LwM2M is gaining traction
We’ve spoken before about growing interest in the Open Mobile Alliance’s Lightweight M2M (LWM2M) protocol as a contender for IoT communications. And this month saw further evidence of this trend, as AT&T appointed AVSystem to carry out interoperability testing on the LWM2M device management protocol, which is designed to provide a communications protocol between IoT devices and platforms. According to a press release, AVSystem will be using its Coiote IoT Device Management platform to carry […]
