THE NEW MARKETPLA

CE FOR CLIENT

MIDDLEWARE!

Middleware… The New MarketPlace!

• HORIZONTAL MIDDLEWARE: faster, easier and more robust development of connected applications including P2P, Location

• VERTICAL MIDDLEWARE: rapid application development and deployment in specific vertical markets like CRM, Data Mgt, FA, Financial, Gaming

• WEB SERVICE MIDDLEWARE:easy creation of mobile web service applications without facing the complexity of web service clients


Web Services Middleware in action

• Provides a framework for identity-based Web Services applications – plug-in architecture supports multiple service invocation frameworks

• Hides details of discovery and authentication from applications

• Supports both remote and local (on device) services

• On-device services enhance the value of Web Services with user profile and location information

OSGi Service

Invocation framework

With Nokia and OSGi, The move into mobile services

will be simpler than you imagine
