Cubic Telecom to Deliver Global Location-Based Services to Automotive OEMs Powered by Microsoft Azure

Cubic Telecom, a leader in global connectivity solutions for the Automotive industry, announced at AutoMobility LA™, that it will use Microsoft Azure Location-Based Services to deliver location capabilities to automakers worldwide. Cubic Telecom will demonstrate its Automotive Wi-Fi hotspot data solution during AutoMobility LA in the Microsoft Booth #138 in the Technology Pavilion.

Cubic Telecom will demonstrate how its data analytics solution powered by Azure Location-Based Services will help city planners, automotive OEMs and third parties to more effectively manage Electrical Vehicle (EV) charging station locations, occupancy rates and overall efficiency of the infrastructure.

The demonstration is just one example of the types of solutions being developed by Cubic. Over time, the Cubic Telecom data warehouse will be enriched with additional datasets and an array of APIs, providing city planners, OEMs and developers with near real-time data access for their own proprietary applications.

“Cubic Telecom is committed to the Microsoft Azure platform companywide for the long term,” said Barry Napier, Chairman, and CEO of Cubic Telecom. “Azure is a truly global infrastructure that is flexible, scalable and developer-friendly and it has helped us to better serve our customers. Our collaboration with Microsoft opens up tremendous opportunities for our business, and we are committed to continuous development of solutions using the Microsoft Azure platform.”
