Parks Associates would like to thank its latest sponsor, Arrayent for helping support CONNECTIONS at TIA 2012. Arrayent customers are major brand owners who understand that Internet connected products are better because they 1) provide the consumer a better experience, and 2) maximize customer lifetime revenue. Arrayent fills the Internet-connect gap at the lowest BOM cost, easiest installation effort and lowest implementation risk.

Arrayent’s Internet-Connect System™ connects to over 100,000 big brand owner’s products. Example applications include enabling consumers to monitor and control their programmable thermostats, smart energy power strips and smart irrigation controllers from their smartphones, tablets and PCs. Customers have called Arrayent “the Cisco of small things.”

Arrayent is founded on the principle that low cost consumer products are things that simply work right out of the box. To ensure the lowest product cost, dumb simple product installation and graceful product upgrades, Arrayent pushes communication processing tasks to servers in the Internet cloud. The Arrayent Internet-Connect server has been implemented as modern communication switch-like server architecture that is low cost to scale and maintain.
