SCO Mobile Server Libraries
Develop mobile applications for Windows® Mobile, Blackberry®, Palm®, Nokia®, Motorola® and other popular handsets using the SCO Mobile Server Libraries.
SCO Mobile Server Libraries provide a mobility-centric development environment to rapidly mobilize existing systems, develop new solutions and streamline backend system integration.
SCO Mobile Server includes many easy-to-use client libraries so developers can skip the tedious parts and focus on the functionality needed on the phone.
Application Frameworks Further Accelerate Development
Taking this a major step further, the Libraries also include a growing collection of configurable application frameworks that greatly simplify the development common types of services and applications.
The Remote Control framework monitors and controls critical aspects of a business such as the status of essential processes, the integrity of a mission critical application, the health of a server, etc.
SCO Mobile used this application framework to create HipCheck, a service that allows UNIX® and Windows® server administrators to proactively monitor and manage the health of their systems remotely through their Windows Mobile® Blackberry® and Treo Smartphone's
The transaction framework enables forms-based interaction with back-end database and transactional systems. It expedites the development of a wide array of mobile applications, such as order entry, database query and claims processing.
For a variety of reasons, application developers need to support more than one device technology. End users may already be using either Windows Mobile®, Blackberry®, Palm®, Nokia®, Motorola® or another device. You can choose to use the SCO Mobile Libraries to mediate this issue or you can spend a great deal of effort trying to deal with the fact that there is no standard API set across .Net, Java and PalmOne® and Blackberry® OS.
