Cinterion Module Services is a zero touch IoT device management tool accessible through a web portal to all  Gemalto customers.  To use it, there is no need to modify your embedded device software; just enable the Service Agent feature in the supported Cinterion modules and you are ready to go.

Module Services provides tools that simplify the provisioning and remote maintenance of IoT device fleets over their entire lifecycle. The tool is able to manage Java application updates, firmware over-the-air, help ****** the connectivity performance, depoy new configuration rules, and more. Leveraging Module Services allows you to focus on your IoT application, rather than on device management aspects.
