Arm Confirms Treasure Data Buy, IoT Platform Offering

Arm Holdings confirmed the acquisition of Treasure Data, saying it would become part of a new connectivity and data management software-as-a-service (SaaS) platform that it will offer within the next six to nine months.While Arm would not confirm published reports that the deal was worth $600 million, Joyce Kim, Arm’s chief marketing officer, said, “I can confirm it’s the largest cash deal we have ever done.”The IoT has become many things to many people, but one thing is clear: It’s a fragmented market for devices, platforms, connectivity, and data analytics. While many readers might be focused on device development (Arm’s heritage), at a business level, there’s really no point of having a connected device unless you can do something with the data and act upon it. The value in all of the talk that we hear about smart cities, smart energy, and smart manufacturing (and Industrie 4.0) is not just about integrating chips and sensors at end points but more about doing something useful with the measurements and data that result.Challenges come in many forms, including a wide variety of device classes (everything from an ultra-constrained sensor to a large edge gateway), multiple connectivity protocols (Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, 4G, etc.), multiple deployment options (on-premise or over cloud), and a vast volume of raw data that needs to be processed to deliver real value.In addition, the challenge for the device-level players is in creating a viable business when the cost of silicon is continually driven down and, therefore, margins become tiny. So the ability to offer more than just the silicon intellectual property puts companies like Arm in a position to deliver better profitability.Earlier this year, in June, the CEO of SoftBank’s Vision Fund, Rajeev Misra, said in London, “IoT requires an entire stack, not just the chip.” And this is certainly the path that Arm has taken with its acquisition of Stream Technologies and now Treasure Data, buying in the connectivity and the data management. In a briefing, the company didn’t rule out the possible addition of a data analytics company, too.Putting this all together, Arm has launched its “Pelion” IoT platform, claiming to be the industry’s first end-to-end IoT connectivity, device, and data management platform and helping companies deploy and manage IoT at scale. It combines the technologies from Treasure Data, Stream Technologies, and Arm Mbed cloud, providing businesses with a single-pane view of all of their IoT devices and data.The Pelion IoT platform provides device management, enabling secure IoT device provisioning, identity, and access management and updates for any system setup; connectivity management, with support for a range of wireless connectivity standards for any device, region, or use case, including enablement of eSIM secure identification; and data management, enabling analysis of data from individual devices to enterprise-wide big data deployments, including third-party data. The platform integrates with Arm’s IoT device IP, Kigen, Mbed device OS, and platform security architecture (PSA).Dipesh Patel, president of the IoT services group at Arm, said, “The biggest theme we are seeing in IoT is complexity. It needs to be made simple.”Patel cited examples such as the automotive market and the utilities markets, where the ability to have a global data connectivity platform and a data management platform helps. For car manufacturers, connectivity needs are currently addressed with different sims for different regions, whereas having one fully managed global mobility contract (that is the core of Stream Technologies’ offer) can overcome that challenge. For utilities, the ability to manage data specific to subscribers and demand through smart meters helps manage loads and profitability for the utility.Patel said Arm has not yet defined the pricing model for the combined Pelion IoT platform, but it will be offered on an SaaS monthly subscription, and the seamless integrated offer is expected to be defined with the next six to nine months. He said that Treasure Data will be integrated within the IoT services group of Arm and that the company will continue to invest in the markets that it is already in as well as the Pelion IoT platform.

Alibaba IoT Platform Partners with NXP for Automotive

　　AliOS, the operating system for IoT solutions developed by China’s Alibaba Group, has entered into a partnership with NXP to install the AliOS system and NXP’s automotive infotainment solution in "millions of vehicles" in China by 2020.　　The collaboration will help build a smart cockpit enhanced by multi-screen display, artificial-intelligence-driven interaction and secure over-the-air (OTA) updates, according to the companies.　　Alibaba is said to be aiming to connect 10 billion devices by 2023on its IoT network, and it appears to be creating the ecosystem to develop this, with partnerships announced in recent months with STMicroelectronics, MediaTek and others.　　The partnership with NXP, which combines AliOS and NXP i.MX applications processors, will also explore the optimization of software and hardware design for next-generation auto e-cockpits, future car broadcasting systems and beyond.　　"Over the past three years, AliOS has been a pioneer in driving the digital transformation of cars and helping auto brands to enhance the overall user experience,” said Simon Hu, senior vice president of Alibaba Group and president of AliOS.  He added that they will strive to make cars more intelligent to better connect with the digitized road infrastructure in cities, by creating a robust platform to spur innovation and reduce the costs associated with the mass production of smart vehicles.　　“We look forward to redefining the future of the automobile sector in collaboration with our ecosystem partners such as NXP,” Hu said.　　“Alibaba and NXP share the new vision that in-vehicle experiences and consumer services will be an essential differentiator for carmakers moving forward,” said Kurt Sievers, executive vice president and general manager of NXP automotive. “Alibaba has great momentum in the development, innovation and application of automotive operating systems. We believe the partnership will bring rich opportunities to the auto industry.”　　Validation of STMicroelectronics IoT sensors　　Earlier this month, STMicroelectronics announced the validation of its LSM6DSL 6-axis inertial sensor and LPS22HB pressure sensor for Alibaba's IoT ecosystem, enabling users to create complete IoT nodes and gateway solutions.  Alibaba recently announced the release of AliOS Things v1.2, which includes a sensor-based component called uData. The ST sensors that have passed the AliOS validation have been integrated in uData and the two companies are cooperating on the development of IoT systems that aim to improve end-user experiences.　　The LSM6DSL is a system-in-package featuring a 3D digital accelerometer and a 3D digital gyroscope that operates at 0.65 mA in high-performance mode and enables always-on low-power features for an optimal motion experience for the consumer; it also features high robustness to mechanical shock. It supports main OS requirements, offering real, virtual and batch sensors with 4Kbyte for dynamic data batching.　　The LPS22HB is an ultra-compact piezo-resistive absolute pressure sensor that functions as a digital output barometer. Dust-free and water-resistant by design, the sensor enables high accuracy and low-power operation. It is available in full-mold package with silicon cap and six 20?m holes guaranteeing sensor moisture resistance, relative accuracy of pressure measurement 0.1 mbar, and very low power consumption (e.g. 12?A in Low-Noise mode).　　“The validation by Alibaba of ST’s LSM6DSL and LPS22HBsensors is an important achievement. Creating and connecting nodes quickly and securely is facilitated by the holistic platform of AliOS, which cuts time to market for users and allows them to create IoT systems in China quickly for applications in smartphones, smart watches, smart locks, smart parking and beyond. On top of this, Alibaba is collaborating closely with ST to integrate more products in the platform, offering compelling IoT solutions for customers,” said Collins Wu, marketing director, for ST's analog and MEMS Group in Greater China and South Asia.　　MediaTek IoT initiative in smart homes　　At CES earlier this year, Alibaba A.I. Labs announced a strategic collaboration with MediaTek in IoT initiatives including smart home protocols, customized IoT chips and AI smart hardware. The two parties also announced the first Smartmesh connectivity solution in China that supports the latest many-to-many Bluetooth mesh technology, in an effort to speed up the adoption of this technology in smart home settings.　　The partnership comes on the heels of the successful collaboration on Tmall Genie, the lab’s first voice-controlled smart assistant, for which MediaTek provided chip technology support. Alibaba A.I. Labs launched the smart home assistant in July last year, with an aim to provide brand new interaction experiences for Chinese consumers. More than 1 million Tmall Genie devices were sold in China during Alibaba’s Global Shopping Festival on November 11 last year.
