The Device Management Working Group of the Open Mobile Alliance (OMA) standards organization defines management protocols and mechanisms that enable robust management of mobile devices.
Using OMA Device Management, a management server can remotely set configuration parameters and troubleshoot and install software on a mobile device via different wireless transports. Sybase also offers a device management server product through an arrangement with technology partner Synchronica.
Benefits
Small code base enables developers to implement Device Management in memory-limited devices such as cellular phones, smart phones and PDAs.
Shortens time-to-market and increases return on investment by reducing development cost and testing cycle.
Enables developers to focus on applications and system integration.
XTNDAccess Device Management SDK XTNDAccess Device Management SDK is a full-featured toolkit that enables developers to integrate industry-standard device management client protocols into a wide range of embedded devices. The development kit provides a complete suite of portable source code including SyncML parsers, easy-to-use APIs with comprehensive documentation, and sample applications. Small code size enables developers to implement device management in memory-limited devices such as cellular phones, smartphones and PDAs. The product shortens time-to-market and increases return on investment by reducing development costs and testing cycles.
