TIM’s Sparkle launches global IoT solution

Sparkle IoT Global is a managed IoT connectivity service allowing companies to control their assets across multiple countries

Italian company Sparkle has launched its new IoT Global solution during a press meeting held at Expo 2020 Dubai Italy Pavilion.

Sparkle’s IoT Global is a managed IoT connectivity service allowing companies to control their assets across multiple countries. The solution is based on the use of global M2M SIMs capable of connecting to any cellular network, which means multinational companies don’t have to activate any service with local operators.

In addition, thanks to its virtualized and cloud-native mobile network infrastructure distributed on all continents and roaming agreements with more than 500 mobile operators around the world, Sparkle offers high-performance connectivity on a global scale with low latency, making its IoT solution particularly suitable for applications requiring real-time control.

“Connectivity plays a key role for the success of Internet of Things projects – for companies operating internationally, with offices abroad or assets on the move – ensuring transmission of data between geographically distributed Machine to Machine (M2M) devices and the cloud environment that hosts the applications. With the advent of 5G mobile networks and of next generation M2M SIMs, latency is even more crucial to guarantee timely information and precision in business processes,” Sparkle said.

“IoT Global enriches Sparkle’s portfolio of enterprise digital solutions – including also MPLS, Ethernet, managed SD-WAN, Cloud connect and Multicloud automation services – aimed at connecting enterprises’ international sites and manage communications both within their internal premises and with their external ecosystems,” the Italian firm added.

Sparkle is TIM Group’s fully owned Global Operator, and claims to be the first international service provider in Italy and among the top worldwide, with a proprietary backbone of more than 600,000 km of fiber spanning from Europe to Africa, the Americas and Asia.

Sparkle is a global service provider offering a full range of ICT solutions, global connectivity and services for Enterprises, Internet Service Providers, OTTs, Media and Content Players, Application Service Providers as well as of Fixed and Mobile operators.

Sparkle has active operations in 72 countries.
