Networks for the AI Era: How Connectivity Infrastructure Must Evolve to Meet Enterprise AI Demands
This report draws on Kaleido’s 2025 survey of 211 MNOs, MVNOs, and service providers and goes deep on the architecture decisions that will separate leaders from laggards.
In this research report, you’ll learn how to:
- Why 88% of connectivity providers are already fielding customer demand for AI-driven services
- How cloud-based AI can push IoT uplink traffic 700% higher than downlink
- The six connectivity requirements enterprise AI workloads now impose on the network
- What sovereign-by-design, edge-proximal network infrastructure looks like in practice
Your fleet lives or dies on connectivity. This brief shows how one global network keeps every vehicle online, visible, and secure in every market you ride into.
- Stay online across every network and border
- Build one vehicle for the entire world
- See your whole fleet from a single screen
- Pay only for what’s active as you scale
701x builds precision ranching technology that depends on a single promise: every tag connects, every time using multi-IMSI and direct-to-satellite connectivity.
What You’ll Discover
- How 701x solved rural coverage gaps with a single multi-IMSI eUICC SIM that
- Autonomously hopping between operator networks, with no manual configuration required
- Why NTN satellite fallback on the same SIM is critical for IoT devices in true no-coverage zones
- How the Flolive one-integration, one-SKU platform gives access to 20+ operators globally without added complexity
Case Study:
Aeritek Transforms Commercial Refrigeration into Intelligent, Connected Assets with FLOLIVE®
Aeritek produces close to 1 million commercial refrigeration units a year, deployed across hospitals, airports, and retail locations worldwide. With Flolive, every unit is now a connected, intelligent asset – reporting its own health, protecting food safety, and powering unattended retail experiences in real time.
What You’ll Discover
- How Aeritek is transforming commercial refrigeration into connected, revenue-generating assets using cellular IoT
- Why Wi-Fi cannot support fleet connectivity at global scale
- How a distributed core network and local breakout solve data sovereignty and latency challenges
- Specific use cases enabled by real-time connectivity
AI is no longer something you reach for in a cloud. This eBook maps the infrastructure that makes that possible: the distributed stack from device edge inference to regional platforms to centralized model training.
- Why latency, data gravity, and regulation shape where AI can run
- How connectivity becomes the control layer for distributed AI
- The 5 design constraints every physical AI deployment must meet
This report by Kaleido Intelligence shares independent research on a hard truth: most IoT connectivity models are no longer fit for purpose.
In this research report, you’ll learn how to:
- Track shifting enterprise demands as traditional connectivity becomes inadequate
- Rethink network infrastructure to meet new AI and regulatory demands
- Assess provider readiness through independent research of 7 leading players
In this IoT Now Q1 2026 cover interview, floLIVE CEO Nir Shalom explains why the network plan is the most overlooked question in AI-led IoT. Plus two customer case studies showing what global operational readiness looks like in practice.
- Why edge inference alone isn’t a data sovereignty strategy
- Flolive’s three-pillar framework for AI-ready networks
- How Thingsdata and LionsBot scaled across 190+ and 30+ countries
Webinar:
Zero Trust, Zero Downtime: Building Secure Connectivity Networks for Critical IoT Verticals
Critical infrastructure can’t afford a weak link in security or uptime. Yet most Industrial IoT deployments can leave operations exposed and vulnerable.
In this webinar you’ll learn:
- How to build zero trust into the network itself
- Why connectivity could be your single point of failure
- Ways to align edge security, deployment strategy, and connectivity
Join the IoT M2M Council (IMC) and industry experts to explore how 5G Reduced Capability (RedCap) is transforming the low-power IoT landscape.
Watch to learn:
- What 3GPP Release 17 RedCap delivers vs. LTE Cat 4—and what’s next with eRedCap
- How moving to one- or two-antenna designs reduces module size, cost, and design complexity
- Why 5G Standalone is becoming the foundation for next-gen IoT connectivity
- Where RedCap is actually rolling out across North America, Europe, and Asia
Learn how LionsBot enables reliable, global robot operations with a connectivity model built for scale, consistency, and efficiency. Read more to learn how they achieved:
- Simplified Deployment: Pre-configured SIMs at manufacture eliminate manual setup
- Reliable Global Connectivity: Multi-network access ensures consistent performance everywhere
- Greater Operational Efficiency: No reliance on Wi-Fi reduces complexity and infrastructure dependency
Beecham Research’s latest report explores how enterprises are moving beyond cloud-only models to edge-first architectures that enable real-time performance, resilience, and scalable IoT operations.
- Understand where edge delivers real value
- Design resilient, low-latency IoT architectures
- Scale IoT with real-time performance and control
Supporting the SGP.32 specification is only the starting point. Real value comes from being operationally ready to run it at scale.
Watch to learn:
- What it takes to deploy SGP.32 in real-world IoT environments
- How to deploy without disrupting live services
- How your ecosystem can turn SGP.32 into business impact
