Patent attributes
Systems and methods are provided to manage, control, and configure connectivity for vehicles or other devices. Data in different formats, which is received from different connectivity providers, is converted into a unified data format and stored in a data store. The unified data format allows analytics to be performed across the converted data. In some embodiments, a connectivity type of a plurality of connectivity types associated with a vehicle is controlled based on a current lifecycle stage of the vehicle. In some embodiments, a first data connection between a device and a first connectivity provider is utilized. Based on an identified change in location of the device and information associated with a second data connection between the device and a second connectivity provider, a switch to the second data connection is facilitated based on a determination that that the second data connection has more optimal characteristics.
