This report profiles some of the key Application Enablement Platforms (AEPs) available today. With the increasing importance of connected devices across industries the role of AEPs is to support businesses in managing their deployed devices, often across varied geographies. However, the AEP market is fragmented with a diverse range of platforms seeking to differentiate their services in the face of stiff competition.
An IoT AEP consists of various tools and services that support businesses to develop IoT applications by collecting data from devices and transforming raw data into a usable and structured format for analysis. However, the capabilities of AEPs differ, based on the breadth of services they offer. For example, some provide data storage capabilities, some offer robust end-to-end device management, and others support edge-based workloads by enabling users to deploy AI models locally for various use cases. Applying business rules is often a part of platform capability, supporting business users to create customised rules to trigger event-based actions and receive alerts when pre-defined conditions are met.
This report includes high level profiles of sixty-four different AEPs currently active in the market.
