ARM® has announced a new software platform and free operating
system to simplify and speed up the creation and deployment of
Internet of Things (IoT) products. The ARM mbed™ IoT Device
Platform has been built around open standards and will bring
Internet protocols, security and standards-based manageability into
one integrated solution optimized for energy and cost-constrained
devices. It is supported by the established and expanding mbed
hardware and software ecosystem that will provide common building
blocks for IoT devices and services. This new platform will
accelerate the growth of the IoT by enabling innovators to focus on
value-add features and differentiation.
The mbed IoT Device Platform includes the following
elements:
- mbed OS: a free operating system
for ARM Cortex®-M processor based devices that consolidates the
fundamental building blocks of the IoT in one integrated set of
software components. It contains security, communication and device
management features to enable the development of production-grade,
energy-efficient IoT devices. It is available to mbed partners in
Q4 2014 for early development, with the first production devices
due in 2015. Key benefits:
- Enables companies to focus on
innovation and differentiation, reducing development costs and time
to market
- Free for developers and for deployment,
supported by an ecosystem of more than 100 OEMs and major chip
vendors
- Increases developer productivity by
enabling software component reuse for shorter development
cycles
- Support for key standards such as
Bluetooth® Smart, 2G, 3G, LTE and CDMA cellular technologies,
Thread, Wi-Fi®, and 802.15.4/6LoWPAN along with TLS/DTLS, CoAP,
HTTP, MQTT and Lightweight M2M.
- mbed Device Server: a licensable
software product that provides the required server-side
technologies to connect and manage devices in a secure way. It also
provides a bridge between the protocols designed for use on IoT
devices and the APIs that are used by web developers. This
simplifies the integration of IoT devices that provide “little
data” into cloud frameworks that deploy “big data” analytics on the
aggregated information. Built around open standards, the product
scales to handle the connections and management of millions of
devices. mbed Device Server is available now. Key benefits:
- Improves efficiency, security and
manageability for devices utilizing a standards-based and
IoT-optimized approach
- Reduces the complexity of integrating
IoT capabilities into existing cloud services
- Unifies device and application data
management using the same technology foundation and eliminating the
need for duplicate infrastructure for clients and servers
- Provides access to a large unified
market of devices through open standards and the widely-deployed
ARM partner ecosystem.
- mbed.org: the focus point for a
community of more than 70,000 developers around mbed. The website
provides a comprehensive database of hardware development kits, a
repository for reusable software components, reference
applications, documentation and web-based development tools. It is
already well-established:
- 1,000,000 project builds last year
- More than 30 official boards
- Eight years of IoT server and 6LowPan
products
- Five years of 24/7 cloud service
operation
- More than 9000 published projects.
“Deploying IoT-enabled products and services requires a diverse
set of technologies and skills to be coordinated across an
organization,” said Simon Segars, CEO, ARM. “ARM mbed will make
this easier by offering the necessary building blocks to enable our
expanding set of ecosystem partners to focus on the problems they
need to solve to differentiate their products, instead of common
infrastructure technologies. This will accelerate the growth and
adoption of the IoT in all sectors of the global economy.”
The mbed partner ecosystem has been expanded to enable
participation by a wide range of silicon, module, original
equipment manufacturer (OEM), system integrator, cloud and operator
partners. Launch partners for the mbed IoT Device Platform include
Atmel, CSR, Ericsson, Farnell, Freescale, IBM, KDDI, Marvell,
MegaChips, MultiTech, Nordic Semiconductor, NXP, Renesas,
SeeControl, Semtech, Silicon Labs, Stream Technologies, ST, Telenor
Connexion, Telefonica, Thundersoft, u-blox, wot.io and Zebra.
“Today’s IoT devices largely exist in isolation and it has been
impossible to realize a truly interconnected world where devices
are interoperable with many different cloud services,” said
Krisztian Flautner, general manager, IoT business, ARM. “The ARM
mbed IoT Device Platform will solve this by providing a common
communication and management toolkit that can be used for a wide
variety of purposes. We expect mbed to significantly speed up the
large scale deployment of a new breed of both IoT devices and cloud
services.”

evolution of the platform, take a look at the blog Putting the I in
IoT, Thread: What makes it different?, Planes, Trains and … Bikes:
