[m2m-iwg] Re : OMA-DM?

[Nicolas Damour <ndamour@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello Werner.

OMA-DM stands for Open Mobile Alliance - Device Management and is a protocol defined by the OMA, initially to remotely configure mobile phones.

It is also widely used in wireless cellular M2M and at least the 3 top cellular M2M module manufacturers Sierra Wireless, Gemalto/Cinterion and Telit support OMADM in their products as a de facto standard for remote management and configuration.

Literally millions of cellular devices today support OMADM.

This is the real life use case, and I suppose that it is the reason why the IWG is interested in it.

Kind regards,

Nicolas.

Hi,

When pointing to the IWG page from the DemoCamp Wiki I noticed, another
protocol mentioned there. OMA-DM.
It sounds up to its name (Oma in German means Grandma;-) as it mentioned the
old notion of "PDA" or "Palm Top" and seems to have been created around
Palm's heydays or  soon after.

A JSR was also proposed, even created, but the EG never got active, so  it
was withdrawn in absense of interest last year:
http://jcp.org/en/jsr/detail?id=233

Why is the IWG suddenly interested in that and where is it currently used?
I'd like to know about real life use cases before mentioning it or updating
the slides.

Thanks,
Werner
