The Ericsson today has complemented its cellular IoT software and IoT Accelerator offerings with a complete set of network services.

Peter Laurin, the head of the business area managed services, Ericsson said "We anticipate IoT devices will surpass mobile phones as the largest category of connected devices as early as 2018 and, according to Ericsson's latest Mobility Report, there will be 18 billion connected IoT devices in 2022. This massive uptake requires a different approach to network planning, design, operations and capabilities than traditional mobile broadband networks,"

Jamie Moss, the principal analyst Consumer Technology and IoT at Ovum said "Machine learning and artificial intelligence are not just buzzwords but are vital and exciting tools being employed by Ericsson for use within a network to help operators manage the many new devices they will need to serve in the future,"
