Open device management standards, implemented deeply, converted between when estates are mixed, and tracked to their bleeding edge.
| Standard | Where it fits | Status |
|---|---|---|
| LwM2M 1.0 / 1.1 / 1.2 | Constrained IoT: metering, sensing, trackers. CoAP over UDP/TCP, DTLS/TLS, SenML, composite operations. | In production |
| LwM2M 2.0 track | Next-generation object model and transports as OMA SpecWorks advances them. | Tracking |
| TR-069 (CWMP) | The installed base of broadband CPE: ACS, TR-098/TR-181 data models. | In production |
| TR-369 USP | Successor for CPE and smart home: controller/agent, MTP over STOMP, MQTT, WebSocket. | In production |
| OMA-DM | Established device lines that standardised before LwM2M. | In production |
CoAP with observe and block-wise transfer; MQTT and MQTT-SN for broker-centric estates; HTTP/S; SCEF and NIDD for operator-integrated NB-IoT. Security spans DTLS 1.2/1.3 with Connection ID for NAT-and-sleep survival, PSK and X.509 device identity, and secure bootstrap flows.
| Technology | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| eSIM SGP.32 (IPA + eIM) | Remote SIM provisioning designed for IoT: swap operators at fleet scale without touching devices. |
| NTN satellite | Coverage that follows the asset off the terrestrial map: 3GPP Release 17+ non-terrestrial networks. |
| 5G RedCap | Mid-tier 5G devices: more than NB-IoT, less than full 5G, right-sized for industrial telemetry. |
| NB-IoT / LTE-M | PSM and eDRX tuned per fleet so batteries last the contract, not the demo. |
| LoRaWAN / LPWAN | Unlicensed reach for campuses and rural estates, aggregated at the gateway. |
| Matter and prpl | Where smart home and CPE ecosystems are converging; tracked in the Unified DM roadmap. |
Kubernetes-based, horizontally scalable, multi-tenant by design. One universal data model across every protocol. Bridges to Azure IoT, AWS IoT and Google Cloud. REST, Kafka and webhook interfaces, plus AI-tooling access so agentic systems can query and act on fleet state under policy.
