Internet of Things or IoT is the current buzzword in technology. Billions of devices are already connected around the world, collecting and sharing data. The next step is to use wireless networks to add a level of digital intelligence to these connected devices by enabling them to communicate with real-time data without human intervention. Businesses today are now actively looking for an IoT solution to enhance their business offerings to cut down on processes and improve performance. To enable more businesses to tap the benefits of IoT, SPTel has developed an Internet of Things as a Service (IoT-a-a-S) platform (view the press release here).
SPTel is the first provider in Singapore to offer IoT-a-a-S on a subscription-based model
IoT-as-a-Service (IoT-a-a-S) comprises of an IoT management platform, Edge Cloud Computing platform, IoT gateways, connectivity and adjacent services such as analytics. This holistic IoT solution supports IoT service providers end-to-end operational requirements for application hosting to bandwidth and data processing.
SPTel’s IoT-a-a-S includes IoT platform that allows businesses to reap IoT benefits without hefty set-up costs and long deployment lead time for a device. IoT solution providers now can subscribe the services on a subscription basis, unlike the traditional way of deployment, to lower the barriers to entry. Deployment is also faster as our pervasive IoT-a-a-S hubs in Singapore enable you to tap into the nearest location to where you require your IoT platform.
Our unique advantage lies in our multiprotocol IoT platform. It is application-agnostic so that devices can connect to the platform regardless of their current IoT application protocol. IoT partners can also leverage our secure and truly diverse network that consists of thousands of hubs across the country to perform multi-edge computing to bring faster open source IoT platform services to their customers.
This award-winning solution is the only such service in Singapore that strings together connectivity, facilities management and Multi-access Edge Computing (MEC) for faster data processing, and device management.
Why you should consider an IoT Platform?
Recommended for
Small and Medium Enterprises

Join our IoT ecosystem
Supported and funded by Enterprise Singapore, IoT-a-a-S is an incubator for innovation, allowing companies to share and market their solutions on the platform to partners and customers.
Application-friendly Container-based IoT Platform
A robust and user-friendly platform that allow containerized applications to be deployed fast and reliably just about anywhere: in a private cloud like SPTel’s or public cloud.
Product Features
IoT Central Manager
Unified and central platform for device management, device data collection and application enablement.
IoT MEC
Platform for edge computing with GPU support. Provide computing resources to application deployment and storage for data collection.
IoT Edge
Secured hardware for different types of sensors data aggregation at various locations, i.e. LoRa and/or Wi-Fi Access Points.
IoT Backhaul Connectivity
Connectivity service from Edge to Hub and between different edge sites for data flow according to business needs.
IoT NiFi
An open source software tool that automates the movement and transformation of IoT data between systems e.g. IoT Central Manager to IoT MEC or selective public cloud providers.
The Solution in Action
1
Mr Lim is running a traditional maintenance business but manual process flows and high manpower costs are impacting his bottom line.
2
He needs a way to automate his processes and digitalise workflows. This will allow him to exceed customer expectations in terms of turnaround time.
3
He has procured his own LoRa sensors to transmit data for predictive maintenance and needs to connect and test them out quickly.
4
Typically, he would need to invest in a platform and a connectivity solution, however, with IoT-a-a-S, he can subscribe to a ready solution for fast on boarding and deployment.
5
To start, he subscribes for an IoT Central Manager and IoT Edge service via SPTel’s customer portal to manage and connect his devices.
6
Upon receiving the data, he uses the IoT NiFi service to convert the raw data into readable and exportable format.
7
After deploying, he finds that the IoT solution is working well and he can send his engineers to rectify potential maintenance issues even before a break down happens, resulting in cost savings and increased customer satisfaction.
8
Mr Lim wants to expand his reach and next subscribes for IoT MEC, to host his application across multiple sites island-wide, leveraging the nearest available SPTel Edge Computing resource to each location.
9
Finally, for sensitive projects, he chooses to sign up for IoT Backhaul Connectivity for a dedicated link back to the IoT platform.
