Welcome the New Canadian Local Instance for Semtech (formerly Sierra Wireless) AirLink® Management Service (ALMS)
Semtech (formerly Sierra Wireless) are thrilled to unveil the latest advancement in Semtech suite of router solutions — the launch of a new Canadian local instance for the AirLink® Management Service (ALMS) platform. This is an expansion of Semtech commitment to provide Semtech Canadian customers with the most flexibility, security and control over their AirLink routers.
What is ALMS?
ALMS is Semtech’s cloud management platform for AirLink routers.
Acting as the control hub of your network, it allows you to remotely register, configure, manage, secure and troubleshoot your fleet of routers. Using ALMS, you can for example register and pre-configure your routers at scale, proactively monitor your deployed routers with interactive and customizable dashboards or deploy new firmware and security patches over-the-air in a few clicks.
Why Local Instances Matter?
A "local instance" refers to the deployment of the ALMS solution within a specific geographical location.
ALMS is built on the AirVantage® Platform from Semtech and is hosted on Amazon Web Services (AWS) infrastructure.
ALMS is currently deployed in two AWS Regions (or local instances) – USA West (Oregon) and Europe (Ireland). By adding a third local instance in Canada, Semtech is providing a new data residency option for Semtech Canadian customer base.
ALMS local instances can present several advantages:
Data Residency: Ensures that data is processed and stored closer to where it's generated, within a specific region or country. This can be important for business- or mission-critical organizations to comply with organizational policies or regulatory requirements. Semtech data residency policies ensure that all account, router and user data is located in the Canadian instance and never traverses outside the country.
Higher Availability and Redundancy: Each ALMS instance is deployed in an AWS Region (United States, Europe and Canada) and is deployed across 3 AWS Availability Zones for redundancy. This helps ALMS remain resilient to a wide array of failure modes, including natural disasters or system failures. Daily data backups further mitigate the risk of data loss, with all backups securely stored within their respective Regions.
Delivering Maximum Flexibility and Control
The introduction of the Canadian local instance underscores Semtech dedication to a comprehensive ALMS data residency strategy. Looking ahead, Semtech is finalizing plans to unveil another local instance in Australia by late 2024.
Earlier this year, Semtech introduced the ALMS Hybrid Cloud option, a groundbreaking solution for customers seeking to seamlessly blend the flexibility of cloud technology and on-premise controls integrated into customer-owned PKI infrastructure. The addition of a new local instance in Canada marks another milestone in Semtech mission to offer comprehensive management solutions tailored to Semtech customers' diverse requirements.
