BlackBerry based Enterprise Solutions for SAP

Research in Motion (RIM) created the BlackBerry wireless platform from the ground for corporate data needs. The platform is built around the BlackBerry Enterprise Server™ which provides manageability, scalability and flexibility with a host of centralized management tools.

Security on the BlackBerry platform has been built around government approved standards such as 3-DES and AES over HTTPS networks. These security models are independently audited by a digital security consulting firm to ensure that it meets strict industry and government guidelines.

The BlackBerry is a proven solution with over 3 million subscribers in 2005. Thousands of companies and government organizations have already deployed BlackBerry devices to their mobile work forces. In fact Todd Kort, and analyst for Gartner Inc. said that 90 percent of RIM BlackBerry sales were in the enterprise.

The Drak Solution for SAP

Drak Systems has created a BlackBerry solution framework that utilizes the benefits and strengths of both the BlackBerry devices and SAP. As a mobile application, it is designed from the ground up on the BlackBerry Enterprise Platform. The benefits this brings are:
  • Push data to alert the user of new corporate information
  • A unique interface to maintain and manipulate data to suit end-user needs.
  • Ability to work off-line in remote locations or on airplanes.
  • Device is updated with new data whenever it is available.
  • Easy to use, the system is managed centrally with no synchronization or setup hassles on the handheld.
The system gets data directly from SAP and updates data directly to SAP. By eliminating a data store in the middleware, data integrity and speed of updating the SAP system is greatly improved.

The BlackBerry devices can also be connected to data-collection devices such as Bluetooth® based wireless barcode scanners or label printers
