Golioth Joins STMicroelectronics Partner Program
Golioth and STMicroelectronics are officially partners. Golioth will enhance ST offerings and make devices more secure, more capable, and easier to manage from afar.
We’re excited to announce that Golioth is now an official authorized partner of STMicroelectronics. ST is one of the leading developer platforms for professional embedded engineers. Their STM32 family powers everything from industrial automation to consumer electronics, and is a staple for teams building production-ready IoT devices. Partnering with ST means tighter collaboration and more tools in your toolbox to go from proof of concept to production smoothly.
What this means today: Bluetooth + Connectivity
One of the immediate wins from this partnership is the enhanced support for Bluetooth connectivity via ST hardware under our Golioth Connectivity offering. Here’s how Golioth enhances Bluetooth devices:
- One platform, every protocol. You use the same APIs, dashboards, monitoring, OTA, device settings, data streaming regardless of whether your device is Bluetooth, cellular, Wi-Fi, or anything else.
- Secure provisioning & built-in encryption. Critical for low-power or battery-constrained devices using Bluetooth, we’ve baked in security from the start. Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP) makes Golioth and easy decision on the production line.
- OTA over BLE. Firmware and software updates over Bluetooth LE, keeping devices up to date, complying with new regulations like the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA), and reducing field maintenance.
- Gateway‑based architecture for Bluetooth. Constrained Bluetooth devices use a gateway to relay to the cloud to access the same services as directly connected devices. This can be a microcontroller-based gateway, a Linux based gateway, or a mobile phone app acting as a gateway.
- Unified dashboard. Manage all your devices from one place: Bluetooth, cellular, Wi-Fi, Thread, Ethernet. Same tooling. Same dashboard view. Less context switching. We already have demos showing ST’s hardware connecting
Bluetooth IoT devices via the STM32WB5MM-DK, using Bluetooth. This gives you a head start in building low‑power wireless devices on ST chips, with cloud connectivity handled via Golioth.
AI, ST Hardware & What’s Coming
On top of connectivity and Bluetooth, we’re pushing forward with Golioth AI Orchestration — enabling you to deploy, manage, and update edge‑AI workloads across fleets. A great example: the STM32N6 series, featured in the OpenMV N6 cameras — python‑programmable, low‑power AI cameras. Together with Golioth, devices like these can stream ML inferences, receive model updates, and be managed securely from the cloud.
What to Expect Next
From here, we’ll be focusing on:
- Deeper integration with ST’s development tools (e.g. SDKs, tools, references.)
- Continued enhancements to Golioth Connectivity for Bluetooth—faster onboarding, more gateway options, tighter security.
- Extending AI Orchestration support (models, pipelines) for ST’s edge‑AI capable chips. We’re really excited about this
partnership. Together with ST, and with robust Bluetooth + AI orchestration support, we want to make building connected, smart, and reliable devices easier than ever. We can’t wait to see what you build.
