Example embodiments of the present invention disclose a device management method, middleware, computer-program products, system, and apparatuses. The method includes: a resource access request is received by using a resource access interface, where the resource access request includes: a URI that is used to indicate a storage location of an accessed management object MO data resource; according to pre-created mapping between the resource access request of the MO data resource and a DM command, the resource access request of the MO data resource is converted into corresponding DM command, and according to pre-created mapping between the MO data resource and MO information, the MO information corresponding to accessed MO data is determined; and the DM command is sent to a target device corresponding to the URI to manage the MO information corresponding to the accessed MO data, so that the M2M applications may access different M2M platforms to manage devices, implementing end-to-end device management and related service applications.
