Global digital-security and IoT-connectivity provider Watchdata has announced that its new data and service site in Paris is now live and commercially available.
Watchdata’s eSIM IoT Remote Management Platform, already GSMA SAS-SM certified, delivers innovative IoT solutions with professional, rapid service. The opening of the Paris site marks a major step in further expanding the company’s worldwide IoT service footprint.
Built on Microsoft Azure, the site offers customers across Europe and surrounding regions one-stop eSIM / eIM management with high availability, elastic scalability, and cross-region disaster recovery, raising business continuity and compliance to a new level.
“As EU data-sovereignty and compliance requirements grow ever stricter, our customers urgently need connectivity services that both meet local regulations and support rapid global deployment,” said Watchdata’s Product Director.
Service-quality & compliance upgrade
• Local deployment reduces latency and improves connection stability, making it ideal for sectors such as finance, energy, and connected vehicles that require real-time performance and strict data residency.
• Fully aligned with EU GDPR, French CNIL guidelines, and GSMA security standards, simplifying compliance audits for customers.
Elastic architecture on Azure
• Azure Availability Zones and an active-active cluster design deliver a 99.99 % SLA.
• On-demand horizontal scaling supports rapid growth from hundreds of thousands to tens of millions of devices.
• Multi-site disaster-recovery design enables minute-level failover, minimizing business-interruption risk.
SGP.32-compliant eIM (eSIM IoT Remote Manager) services
• Mass device provisioning: one-click distribution of profiles, policies, and certificates accelerates production and rollout.
• Flexible operator switching: enterprises expanding overseas can remotely change operator profiles to optimize costs and network quality.
• Unified data view: real-time monitoring of every eSIM lifecycle status simplifies operations and reduces OPEX.
• End-to-end trust: a secure root anchored in Watchdata’s eSIM shields the entire device trust chain and protects communications.
