Microsoft has unveiled its BizTalk RFID Mobile platform designed to enable
delivery of information from mobile devices to core business processes.
A previously private beta version of the software was made available today,
and general availability is promised for late 2008.
"It is only natural that Microsoft extends BizTalk RFID to mobile devices,
and it complements its mobile hardware partners very well," said John
Fontanella, vice president of research at AMR Research.
"The ability to operate at the edge in real time opens up opportunities that
can only further enhance RFID's value."
BizTalk RFID Mobile when used with BizTalk Server 2006 R2 enables real-time
decisions by extending business process to Windows CE and Windows Mobile 5.0
applications.
"Customers have asked for business process technologies that enable real-time
decision-making to help drive measurable business results," said Burley
Kawasaki, director of product management in the Connected Systems Division at
Microsoft.
Microsoft also announced the
BizTalk
RFID Standards Pack for customers to integrate RFID technologies with
Electronic Product Code standards, including Tag Data Translator and Low Level
Reader Protocol.
