    Integrate between M2M stakeholders with an API management-enabled SOA Gateway Embedded device communication has been a critical component of business operations in a number of industries, for several years. However, recent innovations in micro-computing and wireless technology have created a new field of communication — machine-to-machine (M2M) — which introduces paradigm-shifting capabilities for real-time business execution. SOA Gateways can address challenges associated with integrating three key M2M stakeholders: The enterprise (the business operator that is the client of the M2M services) The device operator that manages the M2M devices The network operator that connects the M2M devices into the enterprise Layer 7 Technologies is the industry leader in integration Gateway solutions and offers robust, enterprise-grade Gateways for API management and SOA. Layer 7’s SecureSpan SOA Gateway, API Portal, OAuth Toolkit and Enterprise Service Manager deliver significant value for all kinds of M2M integrations, including smart grid systems.
