                    Why M2M/IoT Applications Platform is Needed?
        The current technology which is available today for connecting
        the wired and wireless intelligent assets around the globe with
        the enterprises comes with the same inherent problems:
        •   A focus on niche solutions
        •   An inability to scale across the enterprise
        •   Support for a single hardware or communication vendor
        To harness the full power of new intelligent/ functional assets
        widely, industry needs a proven, scalable, and secure M2M/IOT
        platform
        Executives are avoiding making major investments in non-
        strategic M2M infrastructure, and instead are turning to
        commercial M2M application platform, which allows them to
        avoid “reinventing the wheel” with M2M infrastructure and
        enable them to hit critical market windows
         M2M development requires the list of technical expertise, e.g.
        embedded software, mobile communications, device protocols,
        wireless provisioning, real-time big data processing, Web
        services, security, data management, and scalable cloud
        infrastructure. In today’s lean business environment, very few
        organizations have people on staff with all these specialized
        skills.

         Cloud based End-to-end Application Enablement Platform for
         M2M/IoT
         Execution environment for Remote Service applications

        Service-Sync is composed of:
         Service-Sync Server: locates at service providers’ site and provides
         “Platform API” on which service providers can develop remote service
         applications
         Service-Sync Client: resides on a managed machine and provides
         “Platform API” on which manufactures can develop management
         applications for “machines”
         Service-Sync Gateway: a open platform gateway through which the
         sensor devices, connected by the private network, e.g., Wi-Fi, Bluetooth,
         Zigbee, etc., are managed remotely and user applications can be added
         and plugged remotely to gateway
         Service-Sync Protocol: application layer protocols, tailored for remote
         management services, between a server and client/gateway

                                                         PaaS: Platform as a service

18                            Advantages of Service-Sync (1/2)
          Reduce M2M development cost and time, and then expedite the time-to-
          market deployment of remote management service
            Internal resources can concentrate on the service business logics, e.g.
            statistical analysis of log data, problem analysis, billing, ordering, etc., which
            are key differentiators of remote services
            Device and server engineers do not need to care about the communication
            protocols and message handlings, which are time-consuming in design and
            interoperability testing
          Easy to customize to differentiate from competitors
            Service-Sync flexible architecture allows a user to provide the customized
            functions in a short-period
          High security
            Between server and device (authentication, encryption, integrity check)
          Support Several Push Technologies
            WAP Push, Long Polling, Apple APNS, etc.
            Can push message to devices behind the NAT
          Network infrastructure agnostics

19                         Advantages of Service-Sync (2/2)
      Support both server and client initiated remote service (push/pull)
      Easy creation of SOA with open architecture
          Open Platform API allows customers to integrate the frontend and backend
          systems, e.g., CRM, FSM, etc.
      A user can enjoy service enhancement without scarifying initial
      investment
          New service enablers are pluggable to the existing service platform layer after the
          initial deployment
      Commercially proven technologies
          Service-Sync and its protocols are proven in commercially deployed remote mobile
          handset management by several Tier-one mobile operators
      Secured access control
          Service-Sync’s Multi-tenancy architecture allows ASP to provide secured services
          to multiple customers with a single server platform
      Ubiquitous remote management by Service-Gateway
          Devices connected by local network, e.g., Wifi, Bluetooth, ZigBee, etc., can be
          managed through Service-Sync Gateway API (JSR232 compliant) from a remote
          management server

    4 Why M2M/IoT Applications Platform is Needed? The current technology which is available today for connecting the wired and wireless intelligent assets around the globe with the enterprises comes with the same inherent problems: • A focus on niche solutions • An inability to scale across the enterprise • Support for a single hardware or communication vendor To harness the full power of new intelligent/ functional assets widely, industry needs a proven, scalable, and secure M2M/IOT platform Executives are avoiding making major investments in non- strategic M2M infrastructure, and instead are turning to commercial M2M application platform, which allows them to avoid “reinventing the wheel” with M2M infrastructure and enable them to hit critical market windows M2M development requires the list of technical expertise, e.g. embedded software, mobile communications, device protocols, wireless provisioning, real-time big data processing, Web services, security, data management, and scalable cloud infrastructure. In today’s lean business environment, very few organizations have people on staff with all these specialized skills. 4 CONFIDENTIAL and RESTRICTED

    8 What is Service-Sync Cloud based End-to-end Application Enablement Platform for M2M/IoT Execution environment for Remote Service applications Service-Sync is composed of: Service-Sync Server: locates at service providers’ site and provides “Platform API” on which service providers can develop remote service applications Service-Sync Client: resides on a managed machine and provides “Platform API” on which manufactures can develop management applications for “machines” Service-Sync Gateway: a open platform gateway through which the sensor devices, connected by the private network, e.g., Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Zigbee, etc., are managed remotely and user applications can be added and plugged remotely to gateway Service-Sync Protocol: application layer protocols, tailored for remote management services, between a server and client/gateway PaaS: Platform as a service SaaS: Software as a service 8 CONFIDENTIAL and RESTRICTED

    18 Advantages of Service-Sync (1/2) Reduce M2M development cost and time, and then expedite the time-to- market deployment of remote management service Internal resources can concentrate on the service business logics, e.g. statistical analysis of log data, problem analysis, billing, ordering, etc., which are key differentiators of remote services Device and server engineers do not need to care about the communication protocols and message handlings, which are time-consuming in design and interoperability testing Easy to customize to differentiate from competitors Service-Sync flexible architecture allows a user to provide the customized functions in a short-period High security Between server and device (authentication, encryption, integrity check) Support Several Push Technologies WAP Push, Long Polling, Apple APNS, etc. Can push message to devices behind the NAT Network infrastructure agnostics Wired/Wireless (GPRS, 3G, WiMAX, Wifi, LTE, etc.) APNS: Apple Push Notification Service 18 C2DM: Cloud TO Device Messageing CONFIDENTIAL and RESTRICTED
