M2M- Fleet Management

What is M2M?

An M2M Service is a combination of devices or “machines”
using network resources to communicate with remote application infrastructure
for the purposes of monitoring and control, of either the “machine” itself, or
of the environment. Thus M2M doesn’t simply create a passive data collection
point but an intelligent inter-machine co-ordination ecosystem.
