Hello , 
  

My platform  is a software suite for IoT / M2M solution integrators 
offering a set of tools to facilitate the interconnection between *devices* 
(or connected *« things »*) and *business applications*:

   - 
   
   *Connectivity Interfaces* (public and private) to collect data, send 
   command or notification from/to IoT/M2M devices,
   - 
   
   *Device Management* (supervision, configuration, resources, firmware, 
   etc.),
   - 
   
   *Message Routing* between devices and business applications,
   - 
   
   *Data Management*: *Data Storage* with *Advanced Search* features.
   
Every device has a particular parameters with a mix of communication modes 
. The devices use MQTT protocol to communicate with  the platform . 

I m looking for a device management that can offer me more functionalities 
so the clients can have more visibility for their  devices . For example i 
want to modify a parameter on multiple devices at the same time : ex: 
device Group . I want to manage different devices with different constraint 
, I want to supervise my devices and  their evolution and it will be just 
great if i could do auto-provisioning (my devices get  automatically an 
existent  configuration and having inventory .
