Amdocs Launches Machine-to-Machine and Cloud-Based Connected Home Solutions to Speed Service Providers' Entry Into the Connected Devices Market

Cellular M2M connections are forecast to grow from 135 million in 2011 to 2.3 billion by 2020, as research from Parks Associates shows a great potential for service providers in the emerging connected home market. For example, 12 percent of US consumers and 9 percent of Western European consumers are highly interested in home security and home automation, and 19 percent of Western European consumers are highly interested in an energy monitoring service.
