Abstract: A computer-implemented method and system are disclosed for connecting a device to subscriptions and cellular billing plans. The method includes enrolling a second device enabled for connectivity to cellular or other wireless service in a cellular subscription and associated billing plan associated with a first device, wherein the enrollment includes providing an identifier for the second device to a cellular service provider associated with the first device by a second user, and allowing a second user to use capabilities of the second device as governed by the cellular subscription and an associated billing plan associated with the first device; while the second device is also configured to allow a first user to use capabilities of the second device as governed by the cellular subscription and an associated billing plan of the first user's choice.

Abstract: A system and method in accordance with the present invention provides an enablement platform for building web-based applications for capture, analysis and use of device data using computing resources and data storage and management capabilities of hosted web services. The enablement platform works in two steps: first, for creating new instances of compute resources at a hosted service by collecting the required information and feeding it to the necessary hosted services pages; and second, for developing production-ready web-based applications for capture, analysis and use of data from M2M devices. In an embodiment, the application is used with a web-based hosted data storage, management and publication service. First step is a single page application running at a website that collects all of the required information and feeds it to the necessary hosted services pages in the background.

Abstract: The present invention relates generally to providing a system and method for monitoring devices relative to a learned geographic area using an enablement platform for building web sites and web applications using data storage, management and publication capabilities of hosted web services. The system and method for monitoring M2M devices relative to a learned geographic area (geofence) are built on existing AerCloud concepts by configuring a geofence by using learned location attributes and evaluating geofence parameters and issuing alerts if the devices are performing outside the geofence parameters.
