ARMmbed? IoT dedicated ARM OS!
The IP vendor #1, leading the pack with revenues more than twice the closest competitor revenues, has to position on the new IoT market, especially because ARM’s main product line is processor IP family, and MCU or CPU is certainly at the earth of the SmarCoT: the “Smart” part. In fact, ARM’s customers have the freedom to develop any chip (as soon as they pay the license and royalties) addressing the Internet of Things. But ARM marketers have made a serious home work to define how they see the IoT market and define solutions around ARM Cortex M family to address this market.
It’s all about ecosystem, and ARM knows pretty well about the concept, we even can say that they have introduced it within the semiconductor industry! You need partners to build an ecosystem and ARM has defined three partner classes: Cloud (providing services), Partners (for development tools) and Silicon Partners who bring the technology. These three groups form the mbed Partner Ecosystem (mbed is in fact the Operating System developed by ARM to support IoT).
