Iridium to launch global satellite network with AWS

2018-09-29 11:05:00| Telecompaper Headlines

(Telecompaper) Iridium Communications has announced a new partnership with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to develop a global satellite network for the Internet of Things (IoT), with a focus on places where there is no coverage. Iridium will work with the AWS Partner Network (APN) to create Iridium CloudConnect, a satellite cloud-based network that will make Iridium IoT services available with AWS IoT. This will bring the reach of AWS services to over 80 percent of the places on Earth without mobile coverage. Iridium customers will be able to take advantage of AWS IoT, while existing AWS customers will be able to expand their geographic IoT footprint to anywhere on the globe.
