Twilio has announced it is expanding its IoT offerings with the release of the Microvisor IoT Platform. Microvisor provides a single platform for developers to build connected devices, keep them secure, and manage them.
According to Twilio, the company’s goal is to accelerate IoT adoption by providing as much common infrastructure as possible.
“While Super SIM solved the cellular connectivity challenge for IoT builders, we quickly learned that customers were still wrestling with the other foundational aspects of embedded software that are unique to IoT,” said Evan Cummack, general manager of Twilio IoT. “Microvisor is the only platform that offers embedded developers the conveniences of a fully managed IoT platform, while giving them the freedom to craft their embedded software exactly how they’ve always done.”
