Transforming eSIM Deployment for a Connected Future
Giesecke+Devrient (G+D), a global leader in eSIM technology, is strengthening its collaboration with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to revolutionize eSIM management through cloud-based solutions. The partnership aims to move eSIM deployment from traditional models to scalable, cloud-native architectures, enabling new business opportunities and accelerating adoption across industries.
With the global eSIM market expected to grow from $4.7 billion in 2023 to $16.3 billion by 2027, according to Juniper Research, demand for efficient, flexible eSIM management is surging. Major smartphone manufacturers have already introduced eSIM-only devices, reinforcing the shift toward mainstream adoption.
“The combination of cloud computing and eSIM technology represents a powerful duo that drives the future of connectivity.”
– Philipp Schulte, CEO, G+D Mobile Security
Scalability, Security, and Efficiency in the Cloud
G+D, which introduced the first eSIM in 2012 and has enabled over 500 million eSIM downloads, will leverage AWS’s global cloud infrastructure to enhance deployment capabilities. The company’s eSIM platform, including its SGP.32-based IoT Suite, is built on AWS, offering scalability, security, and high-performance global connectivity.
AWS’s cloud services will also support G+D’s AirOn360 Entitlement Service, ensuring seamless eSIM profile management for mobile network operators, device manufacturers, and enterprises. Additionally, AWS’s sovereignty controls help meet regulatory requirements for secure eSIM delivery in various regions.
Industry Leaders on the Future of eSIM
Philipp Schulte, CEO of G+D Mobile Security, emphasized the impact of cloud-based eSIM solutions:
“With eSIM bringing IoT and consumer connectivity into a new era, we are ready to pioneer the connected future. Our work with AWS highlights our commitment to innovation, making mobile connection management simpler while unlocking new global communication possibilities.”
Yasser Alsaied, Vice President of IoT at AWS, highlighted the security and scalability benefits of the partnership:
“G+D transforms mobile connectivity management with highly innovative eSIM solutions built on AWS. As eSIM adoption accelerates, secure, reliable cloud services are essential for scaling eSIM technology while maintaining the highest standards of security and performance.”
Shaping the Future of Digital Connectivity
This cloud-native approach to eSIM deployment represents a significant leap in making mobile connectivity more efficient, flexible, and sustainable. By combining G+D’s expertise in eSIM technology with AWS’s scalable cloud infrastructure, the partnership is set to redefine how eSIMs are managed globally—enhancing security, streamlining adoption, and enabling new business models for the digital age.
