Starhome Mach and Stream Technologies are assisting MNOs with the launch and acceleration of their IoT services
Starhome Mach, a global provider of mobile inter-carrier roaming, anti-fraud and IoT connectivity services, and Stream Technologies, a provider of IoT connectivity enablement, are assisting mobilenetwork operators (MNOs) with the launch and acceleration of their IoT services.
Their new solution provides MNOs with complete visibility and control of all IoT device connections, significantly strengthening their local and global competitive advantages.
Starhome Mach (MWC 2017, Hall 7, Stand 7F51), which already services 300 mobile network operators with global network, roaming and clearing technologies, and Stream, with more than 700 IoT-related enterprise clients, have combined their technologies and expertise to deliver an IoT connectivity lifecycle management solution for MNOs.

The platform is designed as a robust, easy-to-deploy, innovative and cost-effective solution to help MNOs differentiate themselves in an increasingly crowded IoT connectivity space. The solution combines Stream’s API-based connectivity enablement and monitoring and control technologies with Starhome Mach’s core network-based connectivity insight and smart steering technologies, as well as Starhome Mach’s complete IoT clearing services.
“Starhome Mach’s years of experience helping MNOs around the world manage and strengthen their core networks makes them a powerful technology partner,” said Nigel Chadwick, CEO of Stream. “Together, we’re providing MNOs and enterprises a complete set of tools necessary to rapidly expand their IoT capabilities.”
Starhome Mach’s new IoT Connectivity Lifecycle Management, powered by Stream’s IoT-X, is immediately available to all MNOs worldwide. The real-time solution delivers the lowest total cost of ownership (TCO) and the highest levels of service continuity, bringing a complete visibility and control layer to the MNOs and their enterprise customers.

Companies using the solution will be able to manage and monitor millions of SIMs and IoT devices, gaining complete self-care, from initial mass provisioning to long-term administration, such as remote management, SIM resets, and software upgrades.
“Stream has been in the IoT business for more than 17 years, so they understand the needs of the enterprises and possess deep expertise in IoT connectivity management,” said Itai Margalit, CEO of Starhome Mach. “Meanwhile, we know exactly what MNOs need, so together, we’re delivering the best possible IoT connectivity management solution available.”
