Machine to Machine (M2M) is a direct network technology mostly used between networked devices for exchanging data and information to perform specific task without the need of human assistance. M2M technology can be of two types: wired and wireless. Mostly, 2G and 3G networks are more popular. They usually use public network like cellular and Ethernet to keep the cost is a low range. The main function of M2M technology is to access data from sensors and transmit it to the networked device. And the communication or transfer of data between connected devices are made via power lines. In order to transfer data on long range of devices, they use radio frequency. And radio frequency technology contains an Integrated SIM card. The main idea behind M2M Technology is that it facilitates Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) between communication system. Therefore, it is also known as the beginner of Internet of Things (IoT). M2M technology was firstly applied in industrial sectors. Before the invention of M2M, manufacture company uses SCADA (Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition) which was designed to control data remotely from equipment. Unlike SCADA, M2M is automated technology which is now use in different sectors like Business, Healthcare, Traffic control, Security, Billing, Logistic/Fleet Management etc. And it had been proven that the implementation of M2M has been more beneficial and effective. Due to its features like low power consumption, remote monitoring, time tolerance and location specific triggers, M2M is getting more popular in all of the field. Any small to large scale business process can be turned to automated with M2M technology.
For instance, a small DOLLAR TREE store which has a vending machine for soft drink beverages. If a product needs to refill then a vending machine send a message to the distributors machine which are connected via network that the product is almost sold out and need to refill. It helps store manager to save the time for inventory. Similarly, Medical sectors uses M2M to connect the patients device to the Doctors network so that they can take a fast action if the vital signals of patients gets alter.
